About WhiskyNotes, a whisky blog founded in 2008
WhiskyNotes is a personal collection of impressions, written while searching for the ultimate single malt whisky. A work in progress, and a continuous exercise for the senses.

Springbank 1994 (Royal Mile Whiskies) | WhiskyNotes review
Jan 17, 2025 · The amount of independent Springbank releases these days seems a little contradictory to the pricing, which would suggest it is some of the rarest whisky around. I’m sure bottlers think twice before buying casks at the current asking prices, but on the other hand I understand most of the casks are simply too good to pass up.
