Mostly Whisky, sometimes other things
📍Lasswade

We found love, oh
So don't fight it
Life is a rollercoaster
Just gotta ride it
I just finished my bottle of this last night

under £100 for a 31yo single cask

www.thewhiskybarrel.com/products/tor...

i am very tempted

When folk say grain has to be old to be good that clearly haven't had this.

Look at the colour of this 5yo NB
Absolutely bursting with flavour too

’Twas the night before Christmas, all quiet and still,
Not a creature was stirring on house, yard, or hill;
The Glencairns were placed by the hearth with great care,
In hopes that Saint Whisky soon would be there;

Merry Christmas all!

In the spirit of Christmas

If you are UK based and you message me your address I will pick some people at random and send them then some whisky samples

So a man rang my doorbell today to ask me where I get the Christmas lights I have in my garden because his kids love seeing them when they drive past

It made me so happy that it was bringing people joy

Maybe the world isn't completely fucked

Right as Rain
P: More Biscuit less fruit, Rye spice is at the forefront with the Malt making it a bit more savoury , Christmas ham, sour dough and salted butter

"as slippery as a baggy up a border burn"

Always worth having a nosey round Amazon for random pricing - not on sale but got the 25yo for 140 and the 26yo for 160

Prices jumped up the next day

Very big thanks to @thewhiskywire.bsky.social for inviting me on this tasting

1st 3 drams were fine and i wouldnt turn them down if offered but not ones i would buy (maybe a gift), this was very much about Finding Doree

Dram 4: Brume Doree

its a step up on exctiment on the tongue

P: Snap, Crackle, Pop! Cantaloupe melon, victoria sponge, lemon icing bofore pulling towards blackcurran and cherry jam then finally fading to a fina menthol note

Dram 4: Brume Doree

N: you really notice the step up in ABV

lemon sherbert, cut grass, pear, a freshly opened back of tangfastics

#SPEYWhisky #Scotch #Whisky #BePartOfTheDramfotainment
December 3, 2025 at 8:01 PM
Dram 3: 15 yp

Now this one is a bit chewier and has more body to it

P: toasted malt loaf with orange marmalade, 5 spice and the chewed pencil taste.

Might be cask char but also getting a subtle hint of smoke

Dram 3: 15yo

N: Mustier than the last 2, Damp Dunnage warehouse, this apple pie has spent a hefty amount of time in the oven but there is a little relief in the form of a dusting of icing sugar

#SPEYWhisky #Scotch #Whisky #BePartOfTheDramfotainment
December 3, 2025 at 7:42 PM
Dram 2: 12 year old

P: apple pie carries through then morphs into darker fudgier notes, mollases, raisins, balsamic raspberry with a tickle of pink peppercorns

another light and easy drinker

Dram 2: 12 year old

N: apple pie - specificaly one of those you get in a big supermarket that is covered in sugar, maybe some rasberry ripple on the side

Chairmans Choice

maybe im more acustomed to higher ABV drams these days as this feels a bit thin

P: mix of chocolate buttons, fig rolls, burnt sugar

while not mind blowing it is dangerously suppable
#SPEYWhisky #Scotch #Whisky #BePartOfTheDramfotainment
December 3, 2025 at 7:15 PM
Dram 1: Chairmans Choice

N: Chocolate Orange, cut grass, lemon sponge
