Here we have two more episodes from our increasingly popular Allotment Drams series, our short videos where we talk about and review different whiskies in the surroundings of our north London allotment. First watch as Matt goes Irish and takes a look at the Sexton Irish single malt. Find out a bit about the brand and his thoughts and tasting notes.

Then join him for a very special whisky and the most expensive one reviewed to date - the new Glendronach Kingsman 1989 Vintage. Watch to discover the background behind the release, along with his thoughts and tasting notes as he huddles from a downpour in the allotment shed! We hope that you enjoy both videos.

Review - Glendronach Kingsman 1989 Vintage

This whisky is the second release of the limited edition and super-premium Kingsman single malt from the east Highland distillery of Glendronach. The Glendronach Kingsman Edition 1989 Vintage has been bottled at 29 years of age and as with the first edition, which sold out rapidly, it is released in collaboration with The Kingsman movie franchise. The latest film in the series, The King's Man, is released by 20th Century Fox and MARV this Autumn. 

The whisky has been crafted by Dr. Rachel Barrie, the Master Blender at Glendronach, using just six ex-Oloroso sherry casks sourced from Jerez in Spain and all distilled and filled in 1989. These were then finished in ex-Pedro Ximenez sherry casks before being married together.
