Yellow Moon – Kilchoman Sauternes Cask
Obviously, the Kilchoman Sauternes Cask with its ageing in sweet wine casks is perfect on its own. Yet, I could not resist mixing up a cocktail with it. I was inspired by the whisky’s packaging in yellow.

Fat Chance – GlenAllachie 12 Years
Finally, a Scotch drink that keeps my tradition of mixing Manhattan variations. In this case, the base spirit comes in the from of the GlenAllachie 12 Years. Let’s just say that for this recipe I combined it with a few compatible ingredients.
Bird is Bored – Glengoyne Cask Strength
Lately, I have been diving a bit into Scotch again. It might have something to do that I joined a Whisky regular’s table. For a first article, I chose the Glengoyne Cask Strength and I tried to keep things fairly simple.
Blood Bank – Turntable Spirits No. 1
Probably, this is the last post of 2023. Luckily, I have a new whisky on hand which seems perfect for that occasion. For a drink, I went for a Blood & Sand variation. However, there is no orange juice left in the recipe.

The Village Whiskey Spirits Show 2023
It has been way too long since I went to the last spirits fair! To change that I got the chance to visit the 2023 Village Whisk(e)y tradeshow in Nuremberg. It was great to see a lot of familiar faces live again. On top of that, I also got the chance to try some amazing […]
So Far, So Good – Compass Box Orchard House
I know it is Dry January, but here is a drink I already mixed up in December. On top of that, this is a great drink using Scotch whisky and a variation of another drink I made last year.
Barley Bird – The Busker Single Malt
There have been a lot of American whiskey drinks here on the blog lately. So, it is time to mix things up a bit, but not too much. This is why we stay with whiskey, but this time with a Scotch and Irish Whiskey combination. The Jungle Bird seemed like the perfect drink for it.
