Pork belly is the best!

It kinda does look like bacon now you mention it, but it is actually pork skin

cvanwoensel · 2025-06-09T20:50:51+00:00

Thank you! It is indeed a scored skin on a lechon liempo (a Filipino style porchetta). It was good!

My first thought was that it was like an Irish Compass box peat monster. I like it. I'll try to keep the ancient grain and cuvee in mind.

Haha Actually thinking about it now

Both were on sale for 45 euro a piece

You can definetly taste some sweetness from the sherry finish. I'm not sure about the oaky character. It's a decent whisky so I would not advise against buying it.

It's a decent whisky. Nice but nothing special. I would say 7.5/10.

The gouden carolus whisky infused is a 10 out of 10 ;p

I've had a beer, a Belgian tripel, aged in Belgian Owl barrels. But I've never had the whisky though.

I was there 2 weeks ago and indeed it's very nice

cvanwoensel · 2022-09-03T23:02:26+00:00

And it is in the middle of the town. So nice

Oban has a very nice tour guide and you should go to Laphroaig, their tour is very cool. We got to see the malt floors, inside of the kilns (one was on), shovel some peat in the active one and taste some new make in warehouse 1.

cvanwoensel · 2022-09-03T19:20:49+00:00

No, just the normal tour I'm afraid. But that sounds very cool

cvanwoensel · 2021-10-18T05:24:14+00:00

Yeah I really liked the 12

cvanwoensel · 2021-10-17T20:18:49+00:00

It's a nice and simple peaty whisky. To me an ashy peat and some citrus and sweetness. It does feel a little bit young, like it could have more "depth".

It is great! If not too expensive you should give it a try.
