Scotch Ratings and Reviews

Lagavulin Offerman Edition 11 Year Old Charred Oak Cask Single Malt Scotch Whisky

John 4/19/24

Scotch that will make you LOVE Scotch

Have tried various brands over the years, due to my best friend's love of scotch, but have never shared his enjoyment.... until now. From the distinctive smell when you open the bottle, to the smooth hints of flavor that leave no aftertaste, this has become one of my must-have bottles.

Glenmorangie The Lasanta 12 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky

I was pleasantly surprised by this one. My favorite Glenmorangie so far. It has fruity notes, definitely orange, with caramel/butterscotch and a little spice and hint of wood. The 86 proof helps the flavors come through. It has a silky smooth mouth feel and a nice lingering finish. One of the best scotches I've had at this price point... or actually at any price.

The Sassenach Blended Scotch Whisky

Was just a lovely drink would recommend to anyone

The Macallan Terra Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Can be had cheaper overseas

Part of the 4 bottle Macallen Travelers set along with Quest, Lumina and Enigma. This Whisky has a nice woody type flavor to it that I really enjoyed.

Glenfiddich Grand Yozakura 29 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Expensive but delicious

I had a number of pours of this scotch at its debut event. Of everything that was being poured that evening I believe the 23-year-old was my favorite (and a fraction of the cost). This is a special scotch indeed and this is the best price I have seen for it it, also has a beautiful presentation. If you have the means, this is a great addition.

Glen Scotia 15 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Camplbelltown at it's best

This region was once know as the capital of Scotch. Now only about 3 distilleries remain on the peninsula and Glen Scotia is excellent. It has a well rounded flavors with fruits and a carmel flavor with a touch of oak. Very smooth finish, with a touch of spic.

The Macallan Distil Your World New York Edition Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Mr. Whiskey 1/25/24

I’d rather drink prison wine…

Mortlach 12 Year "The Wee Witchie" Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Excellent for this price range.

I wish it was 96 proof like the typo on the website says.

Glengoyne 12 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky

We looked forward to trying this whisky. After tasting it several times, we found it to be woody and musty. We swirled the whisky and discovered a weak smell of oranges and pineapples. We will not purchase this whisky again. There are far better choices.

The Glen Grant 12 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky

This is a very enjoyable, bright, and delicious whisky!

Naked Malt Blended Malt Scotch Whisky

5 star indeed...A mix of Highland Park, Mccallan and Glenrothes in one bottle...can't beat it at this pricepoint.

Glenfarclas 12 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky

never expected this to have as much flavor and depth for the value!

Aberfeldy 12 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky

I am not quite sure how they did it, but this is sweet and dry simultaneously. The sweetness reigns within the finish. It’s very drinkable, smooth and unique. I am not a huge fan, but would expect bourbon drinkers may enjoy.

Lagavulin 8 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky

This Lagavulin 8 could be called Lagavulin Light. It is a brighter version of its senior sibling. The nose is crisp on this and the smoke finish is a little bit softer, but still great. Lagavulin makes an excellent product. Great product and worth a try!

The Sassenach Blended Scotch Whisky

Was there a bad batch of this whiskey in 2023? If so, I got one of the bottles spent $130. Absolutely vile, tasting and smelling the worst spirits I’ve ever had. not able to drink a very. Alcohol and vinegar smell only no flavors no sweetness nothing they reviews all brag about. I was very disappointed . i’ve had cheap rum and whiskey on cruise ships for free that tasted better. Stick with the gin, that is wonderful

Glenfarclas 105 Cask Strength Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Smooth deep flavors, pure gold.

This is my favorite scotch but is hard to find except here at Caskers. Worth the price but I am very selective of who I share with because I want it all to myself.

Bruichladdich Port Charlotte 10 Year Old Heavily Peated

Nice flavor nicely Peated

Excellent taste nice Smokey flavor. Excellent quality

Talisker Storm Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Geoffrey 11/22/23

Enough peat but also some spice and fruits under that. This is one of my go to scotches. Have enjoyed several bottles.

Ledaig 10 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky

catfishcounts 11/14/23

My first bottle of Ledaig 10. More of an earthy peat, lighter on the smoke. It's kind of a creamy, very slightly savory. First encounter of a creamy peat, nothing like Ardbeg, Lagavulin, Caol Ila or Port Charlotte. Haven't quite finished it yet. Look forward to getting to know it better.

Glenfiddich Bourbon Barrel Reserve 14 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky

By far my favorite Glen

Love the bourbon and fruity flavors of this Glen 14. I have been drinking Scotch for 20+ years and this is my go-to.

The Glenlivet Founder's Reserve Single Malt Scotch Whisky

I picked up a bottle to give it a try. Obviously a very affordable price from a very high quality distillery. It provides a small taste of that great Glenlivet flavor. If you can afford it, I would recommend spending a little more for the Glenlivet 12. If you can’t afford it, this will still give you a nice little dram before bed.

Glenfiddich Bourbon Barrel Reserve 14 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Better Options Available

I picked up a bottle at my local liquor store. Nothing really special or unique about it that I can share. To be fair I did not notice the bourbon barrel description before purchasing. I like some bourbons, but I don’t typically pursue them. I hope to try a different Glenfiddich soon to see if this was maybe just a poor selection on my part.

The Glenlivet 12 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky

This has a little bit of that signature Glenlivet flavor, but not nearly as smooth as its older siblings. It’s a great daily dram for the price though!

The Glenlivet 18 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky

I received this excellent Scotch as a birthday gift earlier this year. Glenlivet 18 has a great distinctive taste and is by far one of the smoothest finishes I’ve ever experienced. High quality product that is worthy of any special celebration. I definitely recommend it.

Lagavulin 16 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Beware new Scotch drinkers, this is the epitome of peat smoked Scotch. As a result, you may initially find it overwhelming if you’ve never had it. However, all those who have grown to appreciate that smoky finish know that this is THE ONE. It’s a high quality product that is thoroughly enjoyable. One of my top 3 favorites so far and I don’t think that’ll ever change.

Highland Park Viking Honour 12 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky

I found one of these while vacationing down in Myrtle Beach this summer. This younger version is a little more wild than the 18, but in a good way! It burns much longer, it’s spicy spicy up front, and has that great mild smoke. I reiterate in a good way! Great value for the price point. One of my go to’s for my daily night cap because it’s more affordable than others. Love me some Highland Park.

Highland Park Viking Pride 18 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky

After an excellent steak dinner I noticed this whiskey on the menu and thought I’d give it a try. I’ve had good bourbons here and there over the years, but this was my first scotch. That first sip was an experience in itself. At first a mild spicy note that then transitioned to a mild peat smoke finish and finished with a delightful warmth. Instantly I became hooked. This Scotch started me on a very enjoyable tasting journey that I’m still on. I have since tried and enjoyed many others, but this still ranks as one of my all time favorites. Just a downright excellent product. If you can afford it, put it on your shelf.

Oban 14 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Tried this for the first time a few weeks ago. My first thought was wow, this is really only a 14 year!?! Flavorful and the smooth finish is exceptional, I drink scotch neat at room temperature. I think this is on par with some older non-peated scotches I’ve tried.

The Sassenach Blended Scotch Whisky

Grandmother 10/27/23

This will definitely cause a glow in your throat but not the good kind. You will need to add ice to dilute enough to make it palatable.

Johnnie Walker Gold Label Reserve Scotch Whisky

I will say that I feel that J/W Gold is A very smooth J/W Whisky when I and some of my guests have done A side by side with J/W blue , Red , Green , And Gold We felt that the Gold was as smooth as J/W blue but had A very nice stronger flavor . Although I still enjoy the Blue the gold is my go to Whisky !

The Famous Grouse Winter Reserve Scotch Whisky

Sweet nose with a bit of alcohol. Mild sweet creamy flavor touch of heat on the finish. Easy sipper. All ready put another bottle in my basket. Will be trying the other Famous Grouse offerings.

Cutty Sark Prohibition Edition Scotch Whisky

A sweet front with a nice spicy finish.

Deanston 12 Year Old Scotch Whisky

Christian 8/11/23

After seeing Ralfy review Deanston 12 on his YouTube channel and giving it such a good Malt Mark I knew I had to snag me a bottle. Unchillfiltered. Natural colour. Truly a fantastic Single Malt.

Arran 10 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky

This is a fantastic scotch for the price. Unchillfiltered. Natural color. You're getting what you pay for no question about it. Thanks to Ralfy on YouTube for introducing this lovely malt to me. Cheers friends

Arran 10 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Incredible price for what you get. This is a delightful scotch!

Ardbeg BizarreBQ Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Good gimmicky summer treat but not a great value

I knew this was a gimmicky product when I purchased it. I had read the reviews and hoped that they were spot on. I paid the $90 list price and I don't regret it. I found the "meaty" flavor I read about in the review fairly muted, the smoke was more faint than I anticipated, and I would have liked a little more "bite" to this whiskey. Not a bad whiskey to try while it's here, but only if you can find it at list.

Highland Park Twisted Tattoo 16 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky

RichnPoor 6/12/23

A Nice Change of Pace

I love Highland and Speyside single malts. This one has a hint of something (maybe from the bourbon casks?), which is why it's a good change of pace from the smoother ones. Discovered it in a scotch tasting in Scotland. Can't by it in a retail store, so Casker's was a big help to source it and have it shipped.

Compass Box Hedonism Scotch Whisky

Compass Box Hedonism is a Real Treat

I bought this bottle after it was recommended to me from a friend. I am so glad I took that advice. Compass Box already has good reviews for some other scotches (like "Spice Tree"), but boy does "Hedonism" really hit the spot. It's awesome to sip it all on its own without mixing it with other stuff. The flavor is one of those that can be appreciated neat. You don't even need that little splash of water that some whiskies need to "open up the flavors." It's delicious just as it is. All that being said, I have tried it in a few mixed drinks and it is just delightful. 5 stars in every category for this one. Well worth the money.

Kilchoman Sanaig Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Complex taste combines sweet fruit with just enough peat to keep it interesting

Arran 10 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Doesn't really stand out

It's not that this expression is unpleasant in any way; It's just kind of boring. I found the nose very medicinal. The palate had the predictable citrus notes with a hint of cinnamon at the beginning of an oaky finish. There's others in this price range I would choose instead.

Longmorn 16 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky

I have quite a few bottles and this one is at the top of my list.

The Glenrothes 12 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Great scotch for the price

I really enjoyed this one. It is on the sweeter side; very smooth with a long, lightly spicy finish.

The Glenlivet 12 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky

A favorite that costs significantly less than my others favorites. An unbelievable value. I should probably stock up in case they come to their senses and raise the price.

Dalwhinnie Distillers Edition 2020 Single Malt Scotch Whisky

One of my favorite scotch whiskies

More flavorful than their regular version so it stands up to diluting better. Extremely smooth and almost too drinkable. Quite a bit more expensive than their regular 15 year single malt unfortunately.

The Glenlivet 15 Year Old French Oak Reserve Single Malt Scotch Whisky

My second favorite scotch whiskey

Excellent flavor from a french oak cask at a good price. The only other scotch whiskeys I enjoy as much are distiller editions that are significantly more expensive.

Oban Distillers Edition 2022 Single Malt Scotch Whisky

My favorite scotch whiskey

Being finished in casks that formerly held sherry adds just the right amount of additional flavor. I try to spend less than $100 for scotch, but this is worth paying slightly more. I presently have two bottles so that I won’t run out. I’m also fond of Dalwhinnies distillers edition which is a little milder tasting, extremely smooth and almost too drinkable.

DS Tayman 12 Year Old Linkwood 2008 Second Edition

Fabulous Speyside Malt

Linkwood 12 is a delicious expression incorporating all the best features of a Speyside Malt. DS Tayman did a fabulous job bottling this expression and I cannot recommend it too highly at a wonderful price. I have bought 4 bottles and it’s elegant flavorful taste is the very best
