hello multi mucho moltopia muchachos hey great malt mention and thank you to yarta world for
providing them all mention introducing the ralphie review 905 extras because that's what we're about
here giving you extra information and i've just reviewed 18 year old glen cadam in my opinion
a very good value very good quality single malt i highly recommend it it came by the way
without a carton from the retailer because the carton got damaged does it bother me no because
i'm a drinker not a collector when it comes to these types of whiskeys i don't need the carton
but with my other purchases recently i have received a carton which is fine
they're not needed they're not necessary but in this extras
i'm going to show you three whiskeys that i bought for a second time in 2021
and the reason i bought them very simple to add to my stash they're that good that i just want to
put them into the archive these are bottles bring around the bag okay that there we go
this is my bag fill me up with lovely things again and again okay i've got the message
that's not a problem the first of the whiskies that i have bought again in 2021
it's isle of aaron 10 year old ralphie's whiskey of the year
winner of the best single malt at the online scotch whisky awards 2021 you'll find the link
down below in the description box go check out the website full of absolute five star gold standard
whiskey pointer information simples i've bought this again why not it's not expensive you can't go
wrong uh sometime in the future i'll open a bottle of 10 year old aaron and i'll think to myself do
you know i'd like to compare this to one that i bought 10 years ago and i'll bring this one out
and i'll bet you i bet you that in 10 years time whiskey is going to be far more expensive so if
you stick the receipt in the box or in a round the label with a piece of string to hold it and stop
it getting lost you can have a good laugh seeing how reasonable whiskey was back in the old days
second choice buying it again bona haben 12 year old
great whiskey some bad batches a few years ago people were commenting on it but there's been
a run of good batches recently and it's concluded with the recent release of abuna haben 12 year old
cask strength malt mates i've not even tried it yet but what i'm hearing terms
of feedback is very positive bear in mind i'm giving you priceless information here
when a distillery brings out a new version of the whiskey the first batch is the ambassador batch
that sets the tone for its reputation and sellability just saying and thirdly
glenn cadam 10 year old this is a rising star
in the scotch whiskey firmament very reasonably priced widely available and delightfully
a cloudy bottle of whiskey look at the cloudiness in that
you can hardly see my face through the bottle
it's actually looks cloudy in the bottle because it's unchilled filtered um all these whiskeys
are unchilled filtered all these whiskeys are natural color all these whiskeys all three of them
are affordable available integrity single malts which have featured in the oslis
the online scotch whisky awards you see as a co-founder of the awards i'm backing up you know i
buy what features in the awards with my own money and um i want to conclude here having introduced
these three second buys because bear in mind when i'm reviewing the whiskey i'm always looking for
another whiskey i've not tried for quite a long time so it's not often the case where i and
literally well if i'm within a month of buying a whiskey i want to go back and buy another bottle
just to put in the stash but i'm going to put it to you this way
spirits are unique absolutely unique for one particular thing think about it
food items have an expiry date on the label whether it be a ready meal
bag of flour tin of soup frozen pizza block of butter
packet of eggs they have an expiry date stamped on them because all these commodities expire
particularly fresh fruit and vegetables if they're properly fresh
you get a couple of days and then they'll start to go off
but let me ask you this have you ever come across a bottle of spirits with an expiry date on it
neither have i because spirits do not have an expiry date you could take any of
these bottles any bottle of spirits doesn't matter what rum rye cognac bourbon whiskey
and many bottles of wine most bottles of port sherry madeira
because of the ethanol alcohol content they have incredibly long lives
particularly when they're stored properly upright unless it's wine but for whiskey for spirits
upright in a cool place as cool as you can get it away from sunlight undisturbed
this is the thing about a stash you are setting up a library of flavors for the rest of your life
and if you've got children for the rest of their lives too and if you've got grandchildren
for the rest of their lives and great great grandchildren yeah if they don't want to
open it they're a bit concerned they can take that bottle of whiskey from great grandmother
or great-grandfather and they can put it into auction and get a very handsome return for it
i'm providing you this information because you really don't get it anywhere else it's why you

your old gray web grey cells going got you thinking about the benefits of having a stash
