For me I think piggyback might be the best value rye out there. Good neat, great in a cocktail very versatile and only 40 bux and sometimes goes on sale for less. And age stated
I've had a Stobcross opened for months now. It's fine - like, I was reading the companies release on it when I first purchased it saying they wanted to try something new with lowland whisky, and honestly, I've had a few pulls and it's just an unassuming, typical lowland whisky. You can tell it's young though - there's not a lot to it. I compare it to another young distillery like Ardnamurchan and there's no comparison - Ardnamurchan's young releases blow the Stobcross out of the water.
Bahaha well first off I would never take it to waddington’s. And second you’re not wrong, best case scenario we crack it together. He lives overseas so we aren’t together very often but would be fun to drink when he visits.
You'll actually save money driving all the way out to Alberta and getting stuff here. The Highway Robbery in BC and Ontario is jawdrippong......does that misspelling work? I'll leave it.
I got a ton of gin notes on the nose and even the front of the palate. Strikes me more like a barrel aged gin than whiskey until bourbonesque notes creep in mid/back palate
I certainly wouldn't touch it for that price.
So this is B4 I assume?
65.1% - B1 66.0% - B2 63.7% - B3 63.5% - B4
Super helpful! Thx
No problemo
Price isn't too bad what's the problem
It’s a good price. That’s what they’re saying. Lol. If those are 750ml bottles I’d pick up a few!
Yeah this is just about retail where I am
I actually had a 30y grouse the other day and was pleasantly surprised

Solid at retail! Pass at secondary for me. I really want to try the 12cs see if sb does a finish
Speyburn?
Springbank, Imo pretty meh.
Pretty tough to say without prices but my guess would be nikka coffee. Solid bottle for cheap. Maybe glenfarclas depending on the bottle.
I don't know if I'd ever buy another bottle at any price! Stuff is awful
Remember the first time I had the PB. Didn't know at first but she sure grew on me. Haven't had anything else quite like it. Spicey little dram!

Have you tried the 10 or 12? Similar profile?
The 10 is okay if you can find a pick at a good price it's worth it. 12 I don't think the price is worth it.
Park Royal Ave Cambie bcls locations probably your best bets id imagine

Same proofs on the stobcross? I see alot of ardnam are cask strength
If I could take it to auction and buy 3 even better bottles with the proceeds?
If im getting a gift from the father in law in not flipping it on that loserville Waddingtons. I think he'd be offended and rightfully so imo

Waddington the only auction spot I know of but I think cracking it with the fil is the answer
I can’t remember where I saw it but I read the rumour JP Wisers might have a 40-year release coming.
Wisers always has many releases on the go. Personally wish they spent more time on quality over quantity
Well I got three bottles the week of Black Friday, does that count?
Gold spot at 140 is fantastic. I wish that's what I paid
I see it all over the internet for £135. Good on anyone for getting for that cheap =)
Ya I definitely overpay at like 300 cdn 🤦♂️
Cough syrup followed by more cough syrup.
EHT is cough syrup for you? 🤔
No I'm literally drinking cough syrup because I'm sick. No whisky for me tonight.
Ahhh 😂
Occasionally they have an allocation lottery on their vintages website(
Why is my wife not on here lol
Sorry, I'll send her home shortly.
Make sure she's fed
Thank you for the info tho. This thing is rly making me mad tho
Yeah I got screwed out of a bunch of key clutches because of the stupid glitch and all my questions to Activision were useless
Did you happen to change mouse or anything?
Nope same m+k
Waddingtons is not where you should ever go if you want decent value. You will be hosed, period.
It's awful Imo, was a drain pour.
Needs another 20 off then sure
Barrell gold label toasted
Was trying to kill my bottle of 1870 at a friend's house. Need the shelf space and a few bottles gotta go.

Why would you drive when you can ship from most of the ab online stores?
