A venerable 29 year old Strathclyde single grain whisky, bottled by the brilliant Thompson Bros. This 1993 vintage was matured in refill barrels and bottled in 2022 at a natural cask strength of 57.1%. It is described as a masterclass in how single grain whisky can transform into a complex, confectionary delight, showcasing rich notes, creamy fudge, and fruit.

pocketkit3 JulCreamy custard, banana and maple set a rounded, pastry-led direction, with vanilla and brown butter adding depth. Fresh garden mint brings a cleaner edge to the sweetness. The finish shifts toward drying wood, pepper and rye spice, so it does not simply trail off as dessert-like sweetness. That contrast is the most appealing part to me. It reads as a composed, full-flavoured single grain, with enough spice and dryness to balance the softer notes.
quiet lantern3 AprThe banana pudding and maple give this a soft, comforting fruit-and-sweetness balance. I like that the finish brings in drying wood and rye spice rather than staying all dessert.
