SMWS 42.52 Wood Smoke through a Porthole (Ledaig 13)
Review by: Raygun
Ledaig is about my favorite peated Scotch. Remarkably consistent and their peat profile clicks with me. Tobermory, the unpeated version, is more uneven. Ledaig, don’t think I’ve had a bad one. Sample and pic from Whiskery Turnip. Rested about 10 minutes.
Distillery: Tobermory (Ledaig)

Review - The Glenlivet, Fusion Cask, Rum and Bourbon Fusion Selection, (No Age Stated), 40%
You know there must be something wrong with an item when its price tag is well below the item’s value. For example, I once bought a Marshall speaker stack for my guitar amp for about half what it was worth. It was in great shape, with hardly any wear and tear. However, the price foretold an issue. And there was one. Only two of the four speakers worked. Fortunately, it was a wiring issue that was…

Old Pulteney 13 (2008) Signatory Vintage
Review by: Raygun
Haven’t been a fan of Old Pulteney core range, but had a couple of good single casks. Not had many OBs. This was selected and sold by Binny’s, and their Scotch picks have been largely hits in my experience, bourbon casks in particular. Reviewed from a sample. Rested about 10 minutes.

Angel's Envy Bourbon Review
Angel's Envy is a Kentucky bourbon that is aged in oak barrels before being finished in port casks imported from Portugal. The result is an extremely smooth whiskey, that is very approachable whiskey with a sweet flavor profile, accentuated by more subtle smokey and spicy flavor notes.
I was a little surprised at how light it was, given it's rich copper color. I was also pleasantly surprised by its flavor complexity. It starts with a creamy vanilla flavor, that evolves to incorporate a peppery spiciness. I also picked up on a subtle hint of chocolate before it finishes with a strong fruitiness.
All in all, it's a pretty solid bourbon. It's an excellent option for a casual drinker or someone who's new to whiskey.
It's smooth and light enough that I'm tempted to just sip on it all day. However, I think the sweetness could eventually be too much for a long drinking selection. But I would definitely recommend it as an after dinner nightcap.

Brothers of the Leaf, Straight Bourbon, Batch 2, Finished in French Oak Casks, (No Age Stated), 58.1%
“She’s not very attractive. Look at her face. It’s not even symmetrical.”
So said the loud, unkempt, and grossly overweight 30-something man in the theater row before us wearing a ratted hat in the actual shape of the Disney character “Stitch” (ears, nose, and all) while shoveling massive handfuls of popcorn into his mouth, some falling to and collecting on a well-worn Pokémon shirt adorning his…
