Another scotch gift to the lounge this time a Speyside instead of an Islay, and while this is not an Islay scotch it also manages to disappoint my personal tastes. This is clearly a Speyside scotch, and I think it’s main issue is this is a special release made for the United States.

Glen Moray Classic Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whiskey 750mL
This scotch was actually a recommendation to me by a friend as his favorite budget single malt. My current has been Deanston, and in truth I can understand his reasoning. The problem is that in terms of scotch I’m a highland and Islay kind of man, and while a Speyside or Lowland is always welcome – it’s just not what gets my blood pumping.
Muirhead’s Silver Seal 16 Year Speyside Scotch Whisky 750mL
That is a very pretty bottle…but it makes me wonder if its possible for a scotch to look a bit too Scottish.
Glenfiddich 12yr 750mL
Ahh to review scotch again. Well plainly we’ve had quite a lot of whisky this past October, but while Single Barrel is nice – it’s still Jack Daniels, and I will always prefer my whisky coming from across the pond then in the depths of the American south. Unfortunately while we have a scotch here – a single malt as well, there is something left to desire. I never understood why some people would compare Glenlivet to Glenfiddich, because honestly the latter is merely average.

I, JimmathyJethro Justice, have decided to write you once again, with tales of my travels.

It has been nearly two weeks since my last correspondence and I have more tales to tell you about my search for inner mysteries of scotch.
