Latest Episode
Having just reviewed the 10 Year, I tackle the Cask Strength 12 Year offering from Springbank and also discuss the unusual three-still system they use at Springbank and how it differs for their Longrow and Hazelburn offerings. There’s no denying that this particular offering, was not what I expected…in a good way…

Episode 154: Amber Lane Air Single Malt Whisky
2 January, 2026
At the half-way mark through the Alchemical Series we’ve reached the Air, which was so described becuase of how it tastes…which is quite light. This one caught me by surprise about how dangerously easy it was to drink, but how does it compare to the others so far?

Episode 153: Amber Lane Quintessence Single Malt Whisky
1 January, 2026
Having just reviewed the Amber Lane Water, we move on to the unusually named Quintessence that is an alternative word for the more often-used word Aether. Whatever you call it, this was rapid-proofed rather than slow-proofed and the differences between this and the Water are striking. We also discuss how Amber Lane as a Distillery manage their water supply and of course, review the Whisky.

Episode 152: Amber Lane Water Single Malt Whisky
31 December, 2025
The Alchemical Series was released by Amber Lane in October 2024 with five offerings, each named after an element of ancient Science. Each has a different twist on cask finishing and fast or slow proofing and the results vary considerably. We start this off with the Water and see for ourselves how slow-proofing has impacted this dram. It’s not what you’d expect…

Episode 151: Amber Lane Liquid Amber Single Malt Whisky
30 December, 2025
The last of the Amber Lane Core Range is the Liquid Amber, and being partly matured in ex-Pedro Ximénez casks it might just be the kinds of Sherry bomb that I have a soft-spot for…but how well can it compete with similarly matured Scotches? I don’t want to spoil the ending, but this dram…actually blew my mind.

Episode 150: Amber Lane Silk Lane Single Malt Whisky
29 December, 2025
Now on to the second dram in the Core Range set of three from Amber Lane, this recently released offering is called the younger sibling of the acclaimed Silk Road, but at a more drinkable ABV the Silk Lane has been winning its own awards too. Does it stand up to the hype? Let’s find out…
