Is Meikle Toir Turbo the new Octomore?
With Glenallachie's new peated line, Meikle Toir, making buzz in the whisky world; some have it in the same sentence as the famed Octomore. We compare Meikle Toir Turbo to Octomore 6.3 Islay Barley. How is it similar, how is it different, and can it be held in the same regard? The Whisky Rant Podcast Ep 94.

Last Straw Distillery. The Whisky Rant Podcast Ep 79.
I like mixing Tennessee fire with a hard cider.
Haven't tried this one yet but I really like the GG distillery character. Would have been nice if they released an integrity bottlings, like Ralfy likes to say, but at least it's enjoyable and that's the main thing🙂
bimber distillery states on their website that they have 50ppm at the barely level and the in bottle ppm measures 14.4....so using reverse math at those levels (i do know different distilleries will use different methods and get different results) but that Meikle Toir would run around the 240ppm at barley level....
Dubbel black is fuck top😂 he say is good
Woke company I will not buy their products . Enough said
@@user-we9ix5fs4z what's your definition of woke?
LOVE this bottle. Just delicious and over, an experience
No. Still love Octomore a lot more.
Can’t find the Turbo. Whats the next best bottle you’d recommend from Meikle Toir (Original, Chinquapin, Sherry)?
2023 and 2024 unavailable in the UK. £80-£100 plus fees at auction.2024 rated higher on Whiskybase.
Still have one of those 6.3 in the stash. What an amazing whisky. When we visited Bruichladdich the warehouse tasting had a barrel of the 6.3 that they held back to continue maturation. At that time (2019?) it had got to 10 years. This does support the claim that the release really was 5 year whisky. The 10 year version was quite a bit more mellow.
very very nice and honest review. TBH Springbank 15 year is $160 USD before tax if you can even find it. I'll take the Benromach 15 year as it is so much more readily available now in my area.
Glenlivet is one my favorites, but what a lineup, thanks!
Great video :-) i am on fence to buy n do myself. I was hoping you'd give ratings.
Hazelburn, review next please. 🥃
Do more short videos
I'd open the envelopes at the end. It kind of beats the point if you know what you've drank after each round 😁
For me, I like a Glenlivet 12 or Glenfiddich 12 when I'm having one of those respective nights. If I want to have a Glenlivet night, I'll start on the 12 and move to the 15, 18 or 21 and truly appreciate what that distillery is offering. I can't just start on the 21 year or 25 year and love it the same. It tastes so much better when you climb the ranks.
I've got both of these in my collection but I think I prefer a nice Aberfeldy 12 over these two. Such a pleasant sipper!
Can't believe how many people think gentleman Jack is good?! It's rubbish,old no7 is much better.
nice review !
Hey, thanks for the review. I don’t have the bottle and never will but I just opened up my Highland Park single cast series wild Rose 12 year old exclusively for Alberta 288 bottles at 65.8% which was bottled in 2019 paid just over 200. It is absolutely amazingand I know there’s still at least five on the shelf here in Calgary
Boveda "says not to do this" because they want you to buy a new fucking packet. Fuck profits and fuck companies that do planned obsolescence, even for a product like this that doesn't need it.
Just getting into watching this but wanted to say that I absolutely love Two Brewers! They’re making some phenomenal whiskies up there. I recently had the chance to tour the distillery, and have several of their releases on my shelf. Definitely one of the leaders, in Canadian whisky imo!!! Another great video! Cheers 🥃
@@owenlushadv two brewers are magicians
@@SippersSocialClub %100. Love them and your stuff too!!! Great video, cheers 🥃
I like keeping my options open and having a bunch of different bottles open lol I’ve also only been into whisky for about 1 1/2 years, and even in that short time I’ve seen the price of Mcallan 12 go up lol 😂
I'm late to commenting, but I wanted to comment on fruit flies. Yes, they do get drunk! A lab we collaborated with did experiments to see how different mutations affected fruit flies' alcohol tolerance. They discovered a mutation that made them very susceptible to passing out in the presence of very low ethanol concentrations...and named the strain 'cheapdate'. (Fly biologists have notoriously warped senses of humour, and it was the 1990s; I don't think this would happen now!)
I just start colected
Straight from the barrel is definitely my fav out of the standard 4, then the regular/original. I try to get them both when the price is right.
So many good Canadian Rye options out there right now!!! Last Straw and SOV would definitely be two of the top. Hansen Distillery in Edmonton makes fantastic stuff too!
We need Shelter Point and Two Brewers to throw their hats into the 100% Rye ring.
@@VazzVegas definitely! I'm sure they would be contenders if they did
Guys! Do you not know about Sons of Vancouver. Their Realms is about the best Rye I have had.
Not to mention Stillhead…
@@One808 Yes!! Absolutely!!
I tried all the solist ranges minus this one and bouron solsit. All of them are 90 plus and great value for money for the punch they deliver. Thanks for the great video .
Canadian Rye…. Does the “good stuff” make it to the USA?
@@ErikWaitWhiskyStudies yeah, it's called Whistle Pig haha
I definitely would've thought the order to be obvious ... but clearly i was wrong. I would've thought Realms/LS for and 2 then Gretzkys and then the Lot 40. You guys should do a SoV rundown. Whike i don't have the Realms of Rye like you guys, i've git two others really hoping for 3 soon. I would like to see Canadian Rye go up against Ryelaw the Scotch Single grain Rye. Definitely missed a Stillhead Rye in this matchup, i think the Strath pick would compete for top spot.
@@spiritforus need to try that for sure
Johnny Waker hates America and free speech. If you buy it, you are a anti-American scumbag.
Yujiro hanma approves
The best talisker I drank so far. Win the game easy!! Ardbeg 8 second place of course, Kilkerran then lagavulin 😉
Great idea for a head to head guys! I don't get the fascination with the Lagavulin 8, I think it's really harsh, possibly a rushed job and just not enjoyable. Similar thoughts go for the Kilkerran as well 😬 Maybe I just don't enjoy 8 year old whiskies 🤷♀ My lineup would be Ardbeg, Talisker, Laga and Kilkerran. Cheers fellas 🥃 Ps. the struggle of just standing infront of your bar trying to decide what to have is so real! Nonetheless, it's a good problem to have 😅
JW Black is supposedly 30-40 Scotches blended. I seldom get the same taste from bottle to bottle. I buy Grand ol Parr now. Taste as good and $10 cheaper per bottle.
A great flight for comparison, guys. Not surprised by the winner in this group, which I often notice getting bumped up into comparisons with its neighbor distilleries' 10 year olds. Cheers!
The best is no color and not chill filtered
Some profits from provincial liquor stores have to go back into the healthcare system. Alcohol-related disease costs a fortune to treat in hospital. Sad. We don't need booze far more available in grocery and convenience stores. Alcohol is already a huge issue for many people. Just my opinion.
Huge peat head here!! lol!!😂
Try the latest Offerman! Fabulous!
Green label. More complex taste at a decent price. The original gold label was better than the gold reserve
Hey Jeremy, did you spend the night? ❤🧡🤎
Solid LCBO rant gents. Haven’t bought a bottle of scotch from them in ages. Other 5 year bottles: Lochlea 5, Ardnahoe 5 and Raasay.
@@ericcunliffe4112 Whisky enthusiasts when the LCBO strikes: "meh" lol
KK8YO for me as natural and non chill filtered.
Green label is 80 bucks in ohio its my fav whiskey id give it a 90
Thanks for the tasting and several interesting disgressions, gentlemen. Not an official 5 but perhaps a ring-in for when you do later compare those peated 5s?: Kilkerran HP. You should try tasting those 5s all blind, too--but maybe you already intended such? Not a problem/necessary with these 8s. Just a suggestion. If abv's an issue then you could "normalise" the higher ones with a few drops. Cheers!
@@jbar6284 we could definitely do a blind no age statement rundown, cheers :)
I have lost the plot. What is the current LCBO sucks ticker score (minus 85?). Here in Scotland I’m consistently embarrassed by the supermarkets - a million permutations of Jura. There was probably a peated 8 year old in there.
@@greigmartin4339 I think it's minus 8500 lol
