Back in 2020, in collaboration with … Continue reading Drink Review: Kylie Minogue Chardonnay

Drink Review: Jack and Victor Blended Scotch Whisky

So before we move on to the actual review, I just wanted to talk a little bit about the story behind the whisky. First off, the titular Jack and Victor, who are they? They are of course, the pensioners from Craiglang, as seen on the hit BBC series Still Game (and in several sketches on … Continue reading Drink Review: Jack and Victor Blended Scotch Whisky

Drink Review: Kylie Minogue Prosecco

So this isn’t the first time I’ve reviewed a wine selection from Kylie Minogue, you can check out my review of her Rosé by clicking here.

Drink Review: The Famous Grouse

So full disclosure, I will endeavour to be fair and honest in these reviews, as I try to be with all of my content, but I might be just a little biased as Famous Grouse is my drink of choice.

Drink Review: Maison No. 9

Post Malone, first really came to my attention after the release of Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, when I, like most of the population got absolutely obsessed with 'Sunflower' a track he released with rapper Swae Lee for the movie's soundtrack.

Drink Review: Maker’s Mark

Maker's Mark is a small-batch 90 U.S. proof bourbon whisky produced in a distillery in Loretto, Kentucky by Beam Suntory, an American multinational drinks company.

Whisky Basics

So full disclosure I am by no means an expert on whisky, it just happens to be a passion of mine, and this is more or less just an excuse to stretch my fairly limited by nonetheless enthusiastically gained knowledge on the subject. I also want to add that even among actual experts, the field … Continue reading Whisky Basics
