Been a wee bit out the loop, bizarrely I’d just decided to crack open a new bottle that I’d got for my sisters birthday before deciding it’s too nice for her and she’s already got plenty 
Not a distillery I’m aware of but comes highly recommended from the salesman at Fine Wine in Portobello. Dailuaine 17 Oloroso Sherry Cask. Cask strength so I’ll sleep soundly tonight!

Looks awesome. Dailuaine is a great distillery. Signatory bottlings are always quality. Enjoy!Been a wee bit out the loop, bizarrely I’d just decided to crack open a new bottle that I’d got for my sisters birthday before deciding it’s too nice for her and she’s already got plenty

I chilled it yesterday and, whilst I still enjoyed it, it didn’t set off fireworks in my mouth or anything so I’ll probably stick to room temp.

Time for a wee pre-prandial apéritif and am indulging myself with the dregs of a bottle of Talisker Port Ruigh which I only recently discovered means Portree as in The Kid

Just cracked this bad boy. 62.3% abv. Beast of a dram. A bit of water helps but might just chug it neat if the Gunts get a result against the Harry Potters.

My current favourite distillery. All the expressions I've tried are delicious. All non-chill filtered and natural colouring.

I know it's been asked before but what is the obsession with chocolate again? Or is that just 'la table Sancho'?
I got sacked in (oo-er) by a Speyside furry change. Liking the look of the 12 yr old but trying the cheaper 10 yr variant first 'tobe sure'

Benriach is lovely, by the way.
Arran is classified as an Island malt, which is an unofficial sub-set of Highland. Islay is a whole region on its own.

Now on Bunnahabhain Stiuireadair. Entry level Bunnahabhain. No age statement but non chill filtered. Better than most supermarket whiskies. Another favourite distillery. Islay but unpeated.

I spent a few days in (on) Arran just over a week ago.
Loved it.
Just came back with a few cheeses rather than whisky though.
Hope to be cheesing tomorrow.
