Port Ellen 1978 22 [Feather’s Flight Review Set #15]

Review number 2 of Feathers Pub, and I was asked to make it a doozy. So it’s time to skip dessert, we’re going in. Yup, reviewing an Islay. A mothballed one at that. My highest reviewed distillery at that. A dram that most of us won’t ever have, because the rest of us have other hobbies or other things like children or families to invest… Continue reading Port Ellen 1978 22 [Feather’s Flight Review Set #15]

Royal Lochnagar Selected Reserve [Feather’s Flight Review Set #15]

Impromptu Feathers Pub night? Who would have expected it from me? Well, me for one. I was asked, nicely, by my father and his friends, to pick out a whisky for a new whisky drinker to try. And I was told to pick any one, especially a high end one. So I did. I picked Royal Lochnagar 23 year Cask Strength. You’ll notice that isn’t… Continue reading Royal Lochnagar Selected Reserve [Feather’s Flight Review Set #15]

Colonel E.H. Taylor Jr. Warehouse C Tornado Surviving

Thanks to /u/I_SAID_NO_GOLDFISH for this sample. From Tragedy sometimes come good things. Like how the destruction of Pompei gave us a cure for various types of cancer. Oh, wait, it didn’t. No amount of sacrifice of human life can justify good things. What are you, a child? In the case of Buffalo Trace, though, an unfortunate accident that cost no one their life gave them an… Continue reading Colonel E.H. Taylor Jr. Warehouse C Tornado Surviving

Highland Park Odin [The Highlander Pub Flight Review Set #2]

And so we conclude my latest vacation binge review series at Highlander Pub. Revere and be grateful for Odin, for within there would be no wisdom, no death, no healing, no glorious battle, no magic, no poems for the skalds to sing, and much more. He strides above his adopted grandson, the 8 legged horse Slepnir. All fierce females of battle are their death. But… Continue reading Highland Park Odin [The Highlander Pub Flight Review Set #2]

Highland Park Loki [The Highlander Pub Flight Review Set #2]

Still at Highlander Pub. Still drinking. Wife brought a book. She’s awesome. Pub is too. Save and heap your hatred and anger upon Loki. He who is father of Hel, Fenrir, Jörmungandr, Nari, and mother of the eight-legged horse Sleipnir. A shapeshifter trickster who helped the gods until he helped end Baldr. Now bound underground by the entrails of his sons, with a Serpent above… Continue reading Highland Park Loki [The Highlander Pub Flight Review Set #2]

Caol Ila 15 Unpeated [The Highlander Pub Flight Review Set #2]

And I’m back at the Highlander Pub, just like I said would happen because it already happened and boom I’m right because I lived it. Gaze upon my majesty and weep. So imagine you did one thing really, really well. So well, in fact, that you and your friends who do that thing, in your chosen area, are known worldwide for it. You’re Islay. You… Continue reading Caol Ila 15 Unpeated [The Highlander Pub Flight Review Set #2]

Tin Cup

Different bar. Need to sit down. Walked too much. Much too fat for all this walking. Fatty needs a bourbon. Why? Well because I’ve reviewed everything else and I can’t drink without reviewing anymore. It just doesn’t happen. Like I can’t have a boner unless she’s up to her tits in chocolate pudding and wearing a sailor suit. But enough about last Tuesday. This is… Continue reading Tin Cup

Here are some pictures from their 1 year anniversary event! Jeremie is the head distiller and Miranda is the youngest female distiller in Canada for … Continue reading Toronto Whisky Society member visits Dixon’s Distillery 1 year anniversary
