    • @dribsanddrams

      Scotch casks are virtually all ex-bourbon barrels. A lot of Japanese whisky is aged the same way, partly because Japanese mizunara oak is ridiculously hard to work with.

The G&W is tough to find here as well. But then, everything is tough to find where I live, which is why I buy so much of my whisky in Alberta then just eat the shipping costs.

I am not usually a JW fan bit this is a nice scotch blend! Love the heather, leather and just a tiny whif of smokey brine - love that sooo much!! It must be the Talisker!! Hard not to love right? ! Yes the JW Red is pathetic - huge understatement! ! Agreed - no water needs to be added! I do prefer more smoke and brine and I absolutely adore Islay peated scotch but this is a nice blended scotch dram. $115 in Vancouver before taxes. A bit pricey. The blue is overrated and overpriced!

    When i first bough this whisky , i said to myself , man, this the first whisky in my collection that i regret buying , didn't like it , a year later , on my third bottle . When it opens up after a week or. 2, i completely fell in love with it hence the 2 other purchases. The only whisky i bought that i didn't immediately like ...audio bit weird though

      Agreed. The audio was a chore because I was working around some wind noise. I also went out and bought a second bottle for once this one’s done.

    "carpenters dram"... I'm not sure if I take offence to that or not?!?! 😁🤣

      To me, it’s a complement.

    Hey listen , i never put Lagavulin on my whisky lists , in my opinion , too expensive as you've stated in the past . The 8 is the first whisky i bought that i actually regretted buying , however , after the 16 being too pricey , i figured my lagavulin days were behind me , until , like you , discovered the charred oak edition from Offerman ,very pleased ( my only regret is i didn't get on the regular 11 or guiness edition from the previous offerman's) all that being said , you should check out the new limited rum cask edition , it's a hit ,love it , and you should try it ,it's a summer dram no doubt and the bottling details , love your channel , cheers buddy

      I’m looking for that rum cask edition but it hasn’t shown up here yet. I’m gonna jump in it as soon as it shows up for sure.

    So Jes, what do you rate the Cirka out of 1 to 10… (10 being the best)? Love the idea of a compare & contrast… and old fashion is the new rage for moi.

      I’d give it a 7 to 8, I guess. It definitely makes for a fab Old Fashioned.

    I believe that there is a version of JW Green Label produced for the Asian market that is 50% abv.

    I’m surprised you enjoyed the neck pour as much as you did. I thought I made a huge purchasing mistake at the neck pour. However, OMG it opened up to something quite spectacular….. sticky toffee pudding in a glass.
