Benromach 10 was my first single malt buy. I like it.
I never tried these but the 10yr is one of my favorites.
Dude, I’m pretty sure there is a problem when you taste 2 from the actual retail bottle and one from a 1oz sample bottle. Yes everyone has a different palate but there are dozens of reviews of the Van Winkle by other reviewers and NO ONE says what you are saying. So unless you think you know better the 4 dozen others I’d refrain from saying all the negative shit about the Van Winkle. It just doesn’t jive with reality. You need to taste it from an actual full size bottle.
Thank you. Well done. Subscribed. I'm buying again rather than Lafrog 10 or Ardbeg 10
😂😂😂😂😂 Whisky is not for you dude. Stick with a water.
I really like your reviews but this ‘soft porn’ background music is horrible😂
I mean the price for a PVW15, for that price you have the pick of the litter of an whole array of tremendous old age Scotches. Not that Age necessarily means great whisky but, for the bigger brands they sure signifiy quality. Not something the pappy could live up to, too me. If had a glass of pappy 10. But yeah, to be fair the Buffalo Trace distilliries MSRP for these bottles are waaaaay less.
Great video but the LEAFBLOWER 15 trumped you again lol
Lovely to see my own back at the GWC tasting, so handsome, and glad you're having a good time on Islay.
oh wow no way! well, thanks for having us!
Glenlivet 18 is like $150 in my part of USA. I enjoyed it when it was $130 about 2 years ago.
you can try the Laphroaig 10 cask strength . It is more complex, lingers longer in the palate and super yummy than the regular 10.
Ah can't help but feel envious about this trip but I'm living vicariously through you 😃 Thanks for sharing the memories, cheers!
Try the Lagavulin 11 Offerman 4th Edition! Oysters, Charred Lemon, Lagavulin Smoke!!
Really enjoy kilchoman. Springbank next!
The Malt Activist is back & in Islay. YES!!!
What wait you're still alive! NICE. You have been missed, Sir. Gotta go look for VLOG 1 before I watch this one. Glad to see you're back uploading to YT and sharing ISLAY videos no less. SWEET!
Looks like you had a cracking time. Good Vlog and thanks for sharing. Slàinte
The Ardnahoe should be fabulous! I can’t wait to be able to access it in Canada. Nice to see a video. I wouldn’t expect perfection in a youthful Islay whisky!
It was actually pretty good. We ended up tasting the Feis release as well -- also pretty good.
@@MaltActivist People I know who have had it are very pleased.
Great vlog. U said NOT BAD for laga warehouse tasting..were the drams not that good or the experience without mcarthur ?? Did u do all of that in a day ?
Compared to older Lagavulin Warehouse tasting this one was definitely not as good. Back in the day we would get to taste whiskies from 10 years >>> 34 years. This time around 10 years >> 16 years. A bit sad really.
@@MaltActivist Thanx . I too did the mcarthur tour in 2019 n it was my favourite.promised myself that ill do it if i ever revisit islay.planning next year. So what do u reccommend- 1.warehouse tour 2.tasting a feis ile,a jazz,a distillery exclusive n a 12cs at the bar for same price ??(for 36gbp if we cut down 12cs as i v 2 versions at home )
For some reason 🤔
Awesome videos and trip man! I don't think I'll ever enjoy any whisky adventure like when I went to Islay last September. I feel lucky to get to have a warehouse tasting at Lagavulin with Iain MacArthur before he retired. I'm happy to see you back!
Glad to be back!
Good to see you back!
Its good to be back!
I'm so happy you're uploading videos again. I've always enjoyed your videos.
Same!
Cheers!
The Caol Ila visitor centre looks amazing indeed! Great footage, thanks for sharing, MaltActivist! 👍👍
Cheers!
loved getting a look at these places - thanks MA
Cheers!
keep safe
Fun times mate! Looking forward to more videos 😃🥃
Greetings to Sheena ,,, Sheena "McRae" 😉 Drove us too.
Love it, MaltActivist, keep them coming! 👍👍
Wow. You’re back. AWESOME!
Great to see you back, when is the next video?
Revisiting a classic after your newer videos. The gasp after hearing the creation of the word peat-o-phile again 😂.
good to see you back!
Hallelujah! You're back!! 🎉
Reminds me so much of our recent trip to Islay. Traveling with a group of like minded friends is just something else isn't it??
you re back!!! what u ve been doin??
Good to see you back. I’m going to Islay and staying at the Lochside in Sept so couldn’t be enjoying your Vlog more. Keep ‘em coming! 🙂🥃
Great to see you having such a good time. I think I'd rather get the ferry than get on another airplane. I'm such an outsider, I wonder if I will ever bother going to a whisky distillery. Springbank is the only exception and that's just to access the shop. There's just too many whisky people at them. The way that guy at Glengoyne was talking to you would have me pulling my hair out.
great to see you back, enjoyed that you showed the trip there and Glasgow, not just the whisky tastings
Looks like you’re having great fun 👍
Let’s go. Missed your videos.
Wow, now that’s a duty free shop 😅 I’m looking forward to part 2. Cheers!
👍
Nice to see you man, glad you're back!
U look healthy so I am happy for u
Thought you had disappeared! Cheers!
Glad to see you back!
Nice to see you back in action, thought you'd retired!
OMG M.A. its been a while. What the hell have you done with your hair pigment ❓LOL
Great to see you back!
