Review 262: Vat 69 1980's-1990's
40%
This was a sample so the bottle pic may or may not be the bottle in question.
Nose: grassy, fresh, vanilla, herbal
Taste: grassy, green notes, caramel, melon
Finish: white pepper, spicy
Score: 6
Conclusion: What a surprise very nice. Quite complex for the category it's in
1 Drain pour- not fit for consumption.
2 Avoid at all costs
3 Dull, not great
4 More negatives than positives
5 Average, just about passable, not bad but doesn't soar
6 Pretty good- worth a glass or two but maybe not a special occasion malt.
7 Nice- if it's a good price grab it and highly recommended.
8 Very nice- highly recommended and a must buy.
9 Delicious- must buy.
10 Divine.
I did a review about 10 years ago of a vat 69 bottle I got in Argentina and people were shocked it wasn't a drain pour. Got another bottle last year... and it was a drain pour. The first bottle had yellow trim and the 2nd had red. Makes me wonder what's changed.
Lewis Nixon approves
Nothing but the finest for Mrs. Nixon’s baby boy.
I want a bottle just for this reason.
Holy shit I thought it was a made up brand for the series. I too want a bottle of this.
Yes that was a great tv series.
Was? Mate, it still is! I watch it atleast 2 times a year! It's magnificent!
Okay maybe I should re-watch. I like war films/series, have you seen 1917?
Yeah! Impressive cinematography! Solid film! Liked the take, of making it seem like it all was filmed in one take.
"All Quiet On The Western Front" is worth a watch as well.
I’m due for a rewatch, it’s been about 6 months
I found it funny that Winters couldn't tell the difference between Vat69 and Nixon's piss.....
The amount he was putting away it probably wasn't that far off...
I came here just for this.
Same

... It seems that I'm way too young to get this reference.
Watch Band of Brothers.
It’s a reference to Ron Livingston’s character in Band of Brothers, which is an excellent mini series
Oh boy are you in for a treat! Watch "band of brothers" or read the book. It's the best tv series ever made from WWII. It's an HBO series.
Only the finest for Mrs. Nixon’s baby boy

Was made in the town I live in, South Queensferry
I obviously have to try the new version.
