A caramel and cinnamon nose to die for followed by an herbal and vegetal palate you wouldn’t necessarily expect from a bourbon… Bourbon Pursuit’s Joseph Magnus barrel pick is unique and damn tasty. #josephmagnus #bourbonpursuit #bourbon #americanwhiskey #singlebarrel #singlecask #barrelpick #mgp #departmentofbourbon #whisky #whiskey #viski #tirebouchon #whiskyblog #whiskyblogger #whiskyreview #tastingnotes

A medicinal, sweet and coastal Kilchoman which changes to an earthier, younger, greener and saltier whisky after adding a few drops of water… #kilchoman #machirbay #islay #islaymalt #islaywhisky #scotch #scotchwhisky #singlemalt #singlemaltwhisky #whisky #whiskey #viski #tirebouchon #whiskyblog #whiskyblogger #whiskyreview #tastingnotes

A few thoughts on terroir in whisky… #terroir #barley #harvest #crop #whisky #whiskey #viski #tirebouchon #whiskyblog #whiskyblogger #whiskyreview #tastingnotes

Bunsen burner and rubber tubes on the nose and coriander seeds, espresso beans and red hot pepper flakes on the palate. This single cask Chairman’s Reserve is an intense and sharp rum packed with spices, dried fruits and fuel driven notes... #chairmansreserve #saintluciadistillers #rum #rhum #rom #saintlucia #westindies #singlebatch #singlecask #singlebarrel #caskstrength #barrelstrength #whisky #whiskey #viski #tirebouchon #whiskyblog #whiskyblogger #whiskyreview #tastingnotes

Chalky, dusty and mostly dry old-school nose followed by a corn driven palate with cornbread, kettle corn and peanut butter notes… A solid bottled in bond bourbon with an unbelievable price/value ratio. #oldgranddad #bib #bottledinbond #bourbon #highrye #americanwhiskey #kentucky #kentuckybourbon #jimbeam #beamsuntory #whisky #whiskey #viski #tirebouchon #whiskyblog #whiskyblogger #whiskyreview #tastingnotes

It’s like it’s Christmas again… Dried figs, roasted hazelnut and cherry coke. Fruit cake in a glass... Single Cask Nation’s 9 year old Glenfarclas is an utterly impressive whisky for its age. #glenfarclas #singlecasknation #singlecask #scotch #scotchwhisky #singlemalt #singlemaltwhisky #independent #independentbottler #speyside #scotland #whisky #whiskey #viski #tirebouchon #whiskyblog #whiskyblogger #whiskyreview #tastingnotes

Honey syrup and lemon zest on the nose, wet wool, Concorde pears and Werther's Original caramel candies on the palate… To be honest Bushmills Original delivers pretty much all what it promises from nose to finish… Nothing more, nothing less. Good company to your pint of beer at your favorite watering hole, a great Irish coffee in winter or a great highball in summer at an unbeatable price. Absolutely nothing to complain here... #bushmills #bushmillsoriginal #whitelabel #irish #irishwhiskey #blended #blendedwhiskey #blendedwhisky #northernireland #whisky #whiskey #viski #tirebouchon #whiskyblog #whiskyblogger #whiskyreview #tastingnotes

If I owned a distillery I would want it to produce a spirit exactly like this... It is savory, green and doughy. A touch of peat, tons of citrus and green and red peppers. Kilkerran Cask Strength 8yo is a rock solid whisky delivering all the basics you would expect from a cask strength whisky. #scotch #scotchwhisky #singlemalt #singlemaltwhisky #kilkerran #glengyle #campbeltown #weetoon #kintyre #whisky #whiskey #viski #tirebouchon #whiskyblog #whiskyblogger #whiskyreview #tastingnotes

Well, you probably didn’t ask for a “Top Twenty Albums of 2018” list from tire-bouchon but we put one together regardless… I have to say it wasn’t a bad year for music after all… #toptwenty #music #album #albumsof2018 #topof2018 #bestof2018 #bestof #whisky #whiskey #viski #tirebouchon #whiskyblog #whiskyblogger #whiskyreview #tastingnotes
