Whisky Advent 6-9
I'm still quite far behind on these; but this gets me up-to-date with the ones I've actually tasted (a few evenings this week):
- Hudson Baby Bourbon £50. This is made from corn spirit, and did have an unusual smell to it; interesting, but perhaps not my thing.
- Monkey Shoulder Smokey Monkey £30. A gently smoked whisky; nice but not doing anything very complicated.
- The Glenrothes 12 Year Old £41. A nice, slightly sweet Speyside.
- Nikka Whisky From The Barrel £33. 51.4% abv, so needs a fair bit of water to make it more drinkable. Even then, I was not really impressed (which is strange, as we have a bottle of this, so I was obviously keener on it at some point!)
