Lagg 2019 3yo Inaugural Release Batch 3 Ex-Rioja Charred Red Wine Cask Finish: https://theoddwhiskycoy.com.au/product/lagg-2019-3yo-inaugur… Never even heard of this distllery, but got it to try.

The Distillers Art Small Batch Allt A Bhainne 2000 21yo Sherry Cask: https://theoddwhiskycoy.com.au/product/the-distillers-art-sm… Looks like a second (or third) fill sherry cask from an overlooked distillery. First fill you'd have a darker colour and more sherry notes, refill casks show more of the disillery's character and malt and oak. I recently opened a Mortlach 10yo first fill sherry, that's 10x darker than this, and it just tastes like sherry. Me and very experienced whisky drinker agreed that the cask must have been very wet to achieve that colour. Mortlach also has a funky distillery character and is one of my favourite distilleries.

I think these are great value if you want to try something new. I've tried maybe a dozen Firkins and most were good to great, nothing bad bad. Ingelred I have't tried, but I love Ben Nevis. The Benrinnes has a sort of funky disillery profile, If you don't want to get weird with a distillery you've never tried, maybe avoid it and stick to Dan Murphy's shit. If you're feeling adventurous, I would recommend both. You'll also get free shipping.

EDIT: PLUS!

Bonus: 2 x Innis & Gunn 330ml beers with every order

  Love me a firkin. The Linkwood and Caol ila have been fantastic, so great price to try this one.

      I have been buying the Firkins from The Whisky List for quite a while now. I was in the middle of restocking from your last post and wanted to add to add tickets to Brisbane whisky show but it sold out

        That sucks. I haven't been to one in years (but went to a spirit festival last year because I got free tickets), but they used to be pretty shit

  Hard to find many comments/reviews about the Firkin Ten Benrinnes 2008 12yo Madeira Cask. Bought anyways. Wish the offer was valid on the Rare ones, was keen to try the Port aged one.
