Summer break… but still publishing

Posted by: Ruben In: * News

I will be on vacation until the end of this month. No worries, I have prepared a bunch of reviews that will be automatically published while I’m away:

The recent Jura Paps collection
The experimental Balvenie 14yo Roasted Malt
A new Glenugie release by Douglas Laing
A 12 year-old Laphroaig by Malts of Scotland
A new 39yo Glenfarclas by The Whisky Agency
Stay tuned for more!
