Whisky Whiskey is a video podcast about my exploration of Whisky in all of its forms.
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…

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.

One of the first new Whiskies from the New Zealand Whisky Collections new Dunedin Distillery is the Double Cask Single Malt. Can this new offering make it’s own mark in their line-up? There’s only one way to know for sure…

Our journey through the New Zealand Whisky Collection continues with a 21 Year Old Blended Whisky bearing the original Wilson’s name and branding. Fully matured in its original cask from when Willowbank was operating, does its age statement do this spirit justice?

This is first of several Whiskies I brought back from New Zealand, from the New Zealand Whisky Collection in Oamaru. Cyril Yates has been involved with the original Willowbank through to the modern NZ Whisky Collection Distillery at Speights, both in Dunedin. I dive into how Cyril has been the thread that ties the generations together and I also review his Solera Blended Malt…it’s unique and it’s just lovely.
