I purchased this on recommendation from a friend and thought it was reallllllly good!! I usually drink bourbon, but this was awesome. Whats the word on the street with this?

**bart** · February 2, 2020, 06:58 PM

After a glass of Laphroaig, this is an even finer malt:

I don't like to spend a fortune on whisky, and for about 40€ a bottle, this is a bargain!

Not a “top shelf” bourbon, but interesting, and good:

Thank you for mentioning the Rye. I will look to check it out when things open up.

Where did you get it?

**Shadowfax** · December 20, 2020, 11:30 AM

I just finished off my 2 year old bottle of Reclamation so hoping Santa noticed.

The guy that owns Hewn Spirits has a first job of old House and Barn Reclamation and then they use the several hundred year old wood to make the barrels. They do this single malt in Hickory, Walnut, and Chestnut

This one would remind you of Butterscotch Popcorn from the smell and taste

Love Glenfarclas, toured the distillery three years ago on my visit to Scotland.

Aberlour is one of my favorites, a bottle of 18 yr accompanied me on the flight home....

Dave,

Main location is Pipersville, but I always go to the Peddlers Village location which is closer to me.
Hewn Spirits - Hand Crafted in a Copper Pot Still

Some better history
Hewn Spirits >> Bucks County Taste

I think it was about $55 for a 375ML bottle but well worth it. The rest of what they do is good also.

**Phishphan** · December 20, 2020, 08:22 PM

I'm at our place in Aruba until February. Hard to get good bourbon here. They the "regular" stuff.

Found that bottle of Japanese whiskey I posted a couple nights ago with a buddy of mine. Was 300 florin, so about $180.

Plenty of scotch options here.

The Japanese are making amazing stuff. See if you can find Hibiki 17. Very hard to find though and very pricey.

for sure, this cask, at the largest distillery in Scotland was 50 years in the making when I visited there 3 years ago, wanna take a guess as to its value then ??

**Phishphan** · December 22, 2020, 08:41 PM

Brought (snuck) this bottle down in my checked luggage. Haven't had it until tonight. But more of a bite, quasi Rye kind of bite. I'd give it a solid 6.5 out of 10. Can't say I'd buy it again.

50 years?!? I'm assuming I could buy a house for what that costs.

Several houses, 3 years ago when we were there they 'estimated' it's worth @ 3 million pounds. I wonder how much the 'Angels have taken' ?

Have to admit that I was a bit underwhelmed with this one.
Probably had very high expectations ....

Tried it both neat and with a splash of water. Any recommendations?

**Mikado463** · December 24, 2020, 12:31 PM

if you're looking for last minute gifts and have 30,000 pounds British sterling lying about you can buy a bottle of this, better hurry, there's only 5 bottle left ...........

That's crazy. That's about 2500 a glass. I don't know at what level of wealth that makes sense. But I doubt I'll ever get there.

I try to stay in the 50-75 dollar range. Will splurge once in a while for a couple hundred dollar bottle. Plenty of very good bourbon & scotch out there for under $100.

Save it for guests. I was given a bottle that was overly smoky, which I didn't enjoy. I saved it for guests who did.

After hearing about this for years, finally bought a bottle and shared with my son in laws. Four Roses Single Barrel. A very pleasant surprise!

Just cracked this delicious sipper from Fort Ann NY, a tiny hole in the wall we pass on the way to Vermont.

And a Gurakah stick. Well played sir. I brought some of these with to Aruba. Only one cigar shop here, and it's not great.
