Places such as Casa de Vinos, Bijou, Destination Cellars, Old Richmond, and The Oak Barrel have collections that are amazing to behold and fantastic staff (I would encourage anyone around Melbourne to drop ..read more

Well this is a surprise, finding myself a front a keyboard again and spewing out longwinded sentences about whisky. World Whisky Wednesday has been sporadic recently, mostly because I was feeling the lockdown blues. For those who don’t know I live in Melbourne and oh boy, did we have ourselves some lockdowns. It was only ..read more

Somewhiskybloke received a bottle of Levant Highlands Pure Malt Whisky to complete this review. This in no way altered the opinions of the author on the whisky.

The first conversation I ever had about starting a whisky blog under the name Somewhiskybloke went something like this, ‘I’m thinking of starting a whisky blog called Somewhiskybloke’‘Somewhiskybloke? That’s a terrible name, don’t do that.’ As you can see I’m always open to constructive criticism, but that little idea of Somewhiskybloke began with a few ..read more

It’s been awhile, I know. Moving country, then state, then house, starting a new job, working my way through that, it’s been an arduous journey. I am also aware that I’ve made this same excuse before but I have been busy, and as far as I know no one is paying to read this site ..read more

This review has been completed with a sampled provided by Mackmyra, this is no way altered the review or opinion of the whisky. I moved recently, all the way across the world back to Australia. I guess that’s what this time of year is, a season of change, a time in which my life is ..read more
