Bought a bottle of this from the new Berry Brothers shop in Pall Mall, very reasonably priced at £49. If you're ever in London this shop is a treat, with an outstanding choice of spirits and with knowledgeable staff...knowledgeable enough to recommend this to me, at any rate! Newly opened, I wondered what the fuss was about, it seemed to me to be a strong spirit that was short on flavour. Get past the shoulder, though, and give it a week after opening...the hype seems underrated! A stupendous dram, and another bottle ordered.
Think they will always have some sort of variation Zac this is 90% bourbon cask but the next could be 70%....so if your loving this one stock up fella as the next might be a touch different....long time fella you good....and as always thanks for the support buddy...
Hi from Switzerland. I love this whisky. In my country we can find it at 72 CHF (64.5 pounds). In my permashelf for the peated whiskies I've got Port Charlotte 10 heavily peated at 63.2 CHF (56.6 pounds), Ledaig 10 at 49 CHF (43.92 pounds), Longrow peated at 57 CHF (51 pounds), Port Askaig 100 % at 74 CHF (66,3 pounds), Laphroaig Quartercask at 55 CHF (49.5 pounds), Lagavulin 8 at 60 CHF (53.8 pounds) Kilchoman Sanaig at 64 CHF (57.36) , I love the Loch Gorm but it's 96,5 CHF (86.5 pounds), AnCnoc peatheart at 66.5 CHF (59.6 pounds) that I discovered recently, my wife loves it and I find it excellent. What do you think about the last one?
PS. Grateful to my husband for bringing this delicious expression back from the U.K. while on a business trip!! I don’t think this beauty is available yet in Canada. Cheers!!
Always liked the Peat in Progress! Shame the price in the States is $90 minimum. I remember getting batch 1 for $65. I can still find Laphroaig 10 CS (at offer or coupon) around $72-$75usd which is fine for me!
Alan, sounds very interesting but unfortunately around here the standard 12 year is over $100 and very hard to find locally. Always great to hear of alternatives. CHEERS!
Alan, your starting to sound like a peathead. I love a KK peated. They are doing a fine job, especially at cask strength. I'm enjoying batch 7 and I think it will always deserve a spot on my bar. Right next to Laph10 CS.
I liked this one so much I bought a second bottle for the stash. I just love that burst of tropical fruits on the palate! Such a great mouthfeel as well. Easily one of my favourites at the moment.
I had batch 6 and it was ok, but a bit underwhelmed. Do you think this batch is worth picking up? Or as suggested, maybe try the Torabhaig? Always chasing new deliciousness 😋
