#BTC60 Dram 5: Palate delivers creamy smoke, is there such a thing! Very drying delivering heafty PPM on the taste buds with a side serve of rich fruit and treacle sweetness. Truly a dram worthy of Arthur Brown #BlindDrams

#BTC60 Dram 5: weathered teak in colour what has good beading which very slowly develops in to a myriad of slow thin legs. The Crazy World of Arthur Brown is upon us, Fire! Peat smoke, Spinks Arbroath Smokies, barbecued honey marinated spare ribs #BlindDrams

#BTC60 Dram 4: Palate has chocolate Medjool dates, spiced Christmas nuts, hot apple strudel all of which combines to deliver a lingering warm spiced finish which definitely suggests “ Cinnamon Girl” by Neil Young #BlindDrams

#BTC60 Dram 4: Rich gold in colour, small beads that deliver long thin legs. Nose: sweet cigar smoke in the distance with toffee apple and then a werthers original to follow #BlindDrams

#BTC60 Dram 3: Palate delivers a pepper spice that lingers but definitely still getting that “Sugar and spice” from the searchers. Mixed fruit with a touch of grated lemon zest brings up a Christmas mince pie finish #BlindDrams

#BTC60 Dram 3: bright copper in colour, very fine beading that slowly developing to long oily legs. Nose: through the alcohol there’s a salinity, muscovado sugar and vanilla #BlindDrams

#BTC60 Dram 2: Palate has character but not sure what. White pepper, aniseed and constantly changing sweet & sour note, long lasting with a more balanced mixed spice finish #BlindDrams

#BTC60 Dram 2: Bright gold in colour, beads up then slow large tear drops as legs slowly form. Nose is initially very astringent with an initial vinaigrette note then a hint of damp cardboard, touch of CCR “Bad Moon Rising” #BlindDrams

#BTC60 Dram 1: Palate a bit of “Sunshine of your life” as definitely a touch of “Cream” on the palate before a pleasant warm spice kicks in. Poached pears, walnut whip and a sherbet dab dab to finish
