Laphroaig 12yo The Exclusive Malts
Dit is echt een hele mooie fles om erbij te hebben! Ik hoop snel nog eens tegen zoiets moois aan te lopen. Van mij krijgt deze fles een score van 88 punten!

Caol Ila 10yo The Exclusive Malts
Een fijne nieuwe aanwinst die met een wat langere afdronk zeker de 88 punten zou hebben aangetikt. Nu blijf ik steken op een puntje minder maar dat is nog steeds heel erg netjes!
A small interview with David Stirk
August 2018 brought a small shock in the world of independent bottlers. The news was announced that David Stirk had sold The Creative Whisky Company. Such a shame that this highly respected bottler will no longer release new bottles of great whisky. I have enjoyed some very nice CWC bottlings in the past and I still have some nice ones in my collection. That’s why I wanted to ask David Stirk some questions about his former company. Not about why he has sold it though. I’m no journalist, I’m a hobbyist. I would like to know more about the hobbyist that started the company.
Two different bottlings drawn from one Deanston cask
A few years ago I bought a bottle of Deanston, bottled by The Creative Whisky Company. On the day I bought this bottle I found out that about half of the original cask already had been bottled a year earlier, also by The Creative Whisky Company. That called for a sample-swap and Wim Pollet was kind enough to send me a sample of his bottle. Today it’s time to finally find out how different both bottlings are. Or aren’t they?
