Its a bruiser, but thats the point! One of my favourites, still plenty of fruit amongst the smoked ham & BBQ!

He's practically a logistics partner at this stage 😂
Some say he has all the Loch Lomond.
He seems to have a bottle or two 🤣
Looking forward to it!
Happy birthday for tomorrow!

Glen Scotia 15
Glen Scotia 12
Post #BlindDrams drinks. I prefer the Glen Scotia 15 vs the 12, although the 12 is a very nice dram. The 15 has a floral note that Inreally like. This Benrinnes is also just gorgeous. #whisky #GlenScotia #Benrinnes
Dram 5: Score 3
#BlindDrams
Dram 3: Score 4
Dram 5
Dram 5: Nose is quite closed but sweet and slightly funky cheese. Fizzy sweets, sherbert sweets. Palate has dark fruit jam and citrus with a peppery, slightly astringent finish.
#BlindDrams
Cherry! That’s the one I couldn’t name.
Dram 4
Dram 4: Lots of port notes, dark fruit, blackberry jam, quite tannic, sweet and a lovely pepper kick.
#BlindDrams
Dram 3
Dram 3: Funky, rubbery, dark fruit compote. Soft funky fizzy orange on the palate. Ginger and white pepper with honey on white toast on the finish.
#BlindDrams
Dram 2
Dram 2: Fizzy lime and lemon, white wine, citric on the palate, spicy grapefruit marmalade on the finish.
#BlindDrams
Dram 1
Dram 1: baby powder, icing sugar, cereal, pear drops. Finish is a bit sulphury. Splenda aftertaste eventually.

Ready for tonight’s #blinddrams! #whisky
Aberargie Inaugural
Recently joined Instagram & my theory is that distilleries post sealed bottles because it's so shite even they can't drink it 🤣
Neck pour so no judgement beyond initially seems nice. My warm up before my usual #BlindDrams humiliation. I should be able to maintain my 0% record this evening. #whisky
Tonight at 8pm here on @bsky.app
#BlindDrams Any Port In A Storm
Got this one. I'm scared to open it now!
The fanboy generated FOMO got to me. Just don't tell me if it's terrible, I'd prefer not to know the nightmare I'm facing.
Let us know how it is.
