On my trip to New Zealand in July this year, my son and I stayed near Christchurch and while there I stopped by at the lovely Whisky Galore store. They had so many I would have liked to have grabbed however this bottle caught my eye. I grabbed it, had some of it while I was there but couldn’t bring it home to Australia with me, so just brought back a sample. I’d tried and enjoyed the Batch 6 at a Whisky Club night last year…how does the Batch 11 compare?

With John Chidgey.

I first tried this Dram at the first ever Whisky Club night I ever attended and that was a year ago. It was my second favourite Whisky of the evening and when I saw an amazing price for a bottle, I grabbed one. It remains the only Japanese Whisky I’ve ever bought…let me review it and I’ll explain why.

Way back in Episode 43 I reviewed Batch 006 of this exact Whisky…and I lamented the fact that I couldn’t buy a bottle of it in Australia. Dan Murphy’s website showed no stock of any Batch of it, anywhere in Australia so imagine my surprise when I was wandering through a Store I spotted a Batch 007 on the shelf! It was even cheaper than the website list price so I grabbed it…and today I’m going to review the 007 with 006 and see how it stacks up.

The final sample I grabbed from the New Zealand Whisky Collection’s Cellar door in July this year is also the strongest. It’s a strong and bold presence in this Whisky, but of all the ones I’ve reviewed, is it actually the best?

The Oamaruvian Revolution is considered to be the truest expression of the New Zealand Whisky Collection’s new Dunedin distillery character. How well does it stack up against the more traditional offerings in the Collection? There’s only one way to find out…

The Double Wood 16 Year Old comes from original Willowbank stocks and there are only a hundred or so bottles remaining. I grabbed myself a full sized bottle of this after I tried it in the tasting at the Cellar Door. Let me explain how this Whisky has a bizzare and amazing split personality.
