Happyhour24x7 Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 I have bought a few of the K&L exclusive Scotch bottles, thought I'd start a thread to discuss. I've sampled several this weekend: a 21 yo Bunnahabhain, a 17 yo Benrinnes and a 21 yo Linkwood. All have been outstanding examples. Anyone else trying these guys out?

Max Power Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 I have a Benrinnes 17 open. I've described it as a more honeyed/floral Clynelish. Glad I have a 2nd bottle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MtnDew Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 I've been really enjoying their cask choices and this year I managed to grab bottles of most of them, though only a single each. Currently I have their Glenlivet 16 and Glen Elgin 18 open and both have been great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kpiz Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 I agree with Max that the Benrinnes is good, and with MtnDew that the Glenlivet pick is good. I also picked up a bottle of the Dailuaine, so I did a SBSBS with these three. I initially gave the edge to the Benrinnes, but this Glenlivet I hitting all the right notes now. The Dailuaine is no slouch, either... Hotter and less subtle than the Benrinnes, it takes water pretty well and is well-rounded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nivto Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 Has anybody tried their current Signatory Laphroaig 15 selection? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jvd99 Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 K&L looks like a cool place. I read their blog from time to time and some of their exclusives look great. Never tried any since I'm Chicago. I guess I'll just have settle for Binny's :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HD 335 Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 I recently just tasted the Benrinnes and it's a very nice pour, sweet honeyed malt taste. $80 is not a bad price and I'm tempted to bunker one. The Glenlivet is a sherry bomb in the nose and surprisingly good at the lower abv. The bottle that I really enjoyed is their Bunnahabhain 21. I've have maybe a quarter left and will miss it after the bottle is empty. I regret not buying the last bottle on their shelf when it was released.

garbanzobean Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Has anybody tried their current Signatory Laphroaig 15 selection?I was wondering this as well. The price is pretty steep for that. I also wondered about the Chieftain's 1997 Bunnahabhain Heavily Peated, though I think I'll just try the cheaper Toiteach OB.
