The Greatest Premium Whisky Advent Calendar Day 23: Invergordon 2006 - 17 Year Old, Highland Single Grain Scotch Whisky
Ooh this has a lovely flavour. It's rich and deep, like roasted nuts or toasted bread with butter. Smooth and light at the same time. This is a keeper.

The Greatest Premium Whisky Advent Calendar Day 21:J.J. Corry The Gael, Blended Irish Whiskey
Holy shit this is smooth. Like wow. There is an amazing freshness to it as well, with a slight fruit flavour, like a crisp apple. It's just slightly under sweetened for me.

I like this one, it's got a very warm sugar flavour with a bit of spice. I think this would be good good as a solo drinker or in a mixed drink.

The Greatest Premium Whisky Advent Calendar Day 18: Clan Colla 11 Year Old Blended Irish Whiskey
This tastes young. It's got a harshness to it that reminds me of wine that needs to breathe. Great flavour though. Let it age a bit or serve with ice.

Is it just me or do all Japanese whiskys have a very distinct flavour? I wonder if it's the water or something. Anyways, this is pretty good! Solid choice for a dram or in a mixed drink.
