Glenlivet 12 Illicit Still

Glenlivet 12 Illicit Still

It’s been some time since we did a scotch, no? Here we have a whisky made remarkable by the fact that just about every whisky delivered with this kind of presentation should be unremarkable. And yet… here we are!
Overall Rating: ★★☆

Old Forester 1910 Bourbon

Old Forester 1910 Bourbon

Here's my pitch when it comes to choosing from the Old Forester variants: do you want more, or do you want better? The 1910 shoots for “better,” and for that I am a big fan.
Overall Rating: ★★★

Speyburn 10 Single Malt Scotch

Speyburn 10 Single Malt Scotch

A “budget” single malt scotch with an age statement? Sure! It’s suspiciously cheap, but don’t let that deter you from a try.
Overall Rating: ★★☆

Bacardi Oakheart Spiced Rum

Bacardi Oakheart Spiced Rum

Not as bad as I expected. Still not great, but when we're talking about Bacardi, even a backhanded compliment is a reason to celebrate.
Overall Rating: ★☆☆

Glenfiddich 18

Glenfiddich 18

Sometimes even a huge, faceless conglomerate can get something right. If you're fine with drinking the scotch equivalent of an Adele song, there's enough going on with the Glenfiddich 18 to warrant a look.  Overall Rating: ★★☆
