Jack is Back

Jack is Back:

Have numerous treks to the Caribbean, Jack has returned for numerous rounds of single malt… beginning with 6 on Thursday night.   I mean that I like rum (there it’s ron), but it falls short (far short) of single malt.

Let’s start with the Glengoyne 12, its first ever core single malt that uses a bit of bourbon cask aged malt. From just across the Irish Sea opposite Campbeltown, Waterford Dunmore 1.1 organic single malt. The barley was grown at Dunmore farms, malted locally and bottled at 50% ABV. From the great Glen Grant distillery, 15 Batch Strength which is also bottled at 50% ABV. GlenDronach is an 18-year-old to die for! Honestly, one could spend a whole lot of money for an old single malt, but it wouldn’t represent a better value than GD-18. Now for a big finish: Ardbeg Corryvreckan is da bomb. It’s a cask-strength bourbon cask monster at 57.1% ABV.

So, do come along and bring a friend as “good whisky is made great when
shared among friends.”
