There was a point several years ago when it went downhill and became very bland and lifeless. I had heard it was decent again, and decided to take the plunge - and surely enough, it again has some measure of peat and smoke! I'm not saying it is as good as it was 10+ years ago, when I first got into Scotch - but it is once again worthy of being a third or fourth dram of the night, when you still want to drink but not your better stuff.

The trouble with writing is it takes more time and I have to be inspired or have something to say. I am also a film buff, so I tend to take in a film a night, old stuff from the 1940's and '50s mostly.<br /><br />That said, I will endeavour to write more often. Thanks for the kind words!<br /><br />Best,Jason Deblyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13305087714773608306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8176940657289976265.post-71760946495824980702020-09-22T15:10:04.915-03:002020-09-22T15:10:04.915-03:00Jason, I love you and every time I am about to try...Jason, I love you and every time I am about to try a new whisky, I check if you've reviewed it or not. I've disagreed with you on some points (Teachers = warm garbage), but your (written) reviews are some of the most entertaining things I've had the pleasure to read on the internet.<br /><br />I can see that the frequency of reviews has gone down considerably since the golden age of blogging.<br /><br />If it's because you're run out of stuff to review (and/ or you just not finding the time to do it) - may I suggest revisiting and re-reviewing some of your earlier stuff? <br /><br />They need not be the expensive drams, and you don't need to explain the brand's history and backstory since it's already in your previous writeup. So you can probably churn them out quicker (Just the nose, palate and finish and see how it compares to your previous review). <br /><br />I'd love to read for instance, how JW Black of 2020 compares to your review of 2009. Or for that matter if J&B has improved since your last tasting.<br /><br />Cheers, and stay safe!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
