One woman’s view of the wonders of the “water of life”. A dram fan and a foodie who also enjoys a good gin, cognac, wine or cocktail or two!
And a few more highlights!

Great day at the English Whisky Festival in Digbeth on Saturday. Great to catch up with some familiar faces and try some exciting new drams.

New bottle Saturday. SMWS Hearty and Boisterous. 9 yo 1st fill ex-Oloroso hogshead. Distillery 78. 59.2%. Not getting the roasted Brussel sprouts unfortunately, but it’s a tasty dram.

Last night’s drams from Fib. Mackmyra 8 year old green tea compared with the same cask with an Amontillado finish. Part of the Permutation Series. Both are excellent drams.

Amazing Milk & Honey tasting last night with Shilton Almeida exploring the Dead Sea casks. My fave was the Negev Desert but all were delicious.

Ending the bank holiday weekend with Octomore 10 yo. 167 PPM and 56.8% ABV. Despite the high PPM it’s a great balance of smoke and sweet.

A timely evening to bottle kill a fave - the Glen Scotia cask strength. Cheers to you all!

Keep thinking it’s Tuesday. But it’s Whisky Wednesday. Hurrah! Time to open the Tullibardine 225 Sauternes Cask Finish. 43% ABV, creamy and fruity with flavours of citrus, white chocolate and black pepper. Very drinkable.

Friday dram. Wire Works Port Wine LBV. 53.3% ABV. Let the weekend begin.

Little truffles of chocolate and caramel goodness made with Cotswolds Founders Choice Whisky. Don’t mind if I do.

Friday dram time. Thanks to Summerton Club for the Morris Cellar Reserve Muscat Barrel Single Malt from Australia. This one won’t be around for long in my house.

#ThrowbackThursday

Remembering two of the many amazing drams in the Washback Bar at Springbank Distillery. It was the 10 Year Old Springbank Local Barley for me and the 8 Year Old Longrow for the Hubby.

Back to work tomorrow so definitely a dram needed tonight. Farewell holiday and farewell Claxton’s Cameronbridge 16yo First Fill Brandy Quarter Cask.
July 6, 2025 at 6:59 PM
No tumblers left in the bar so no #tumblerclub tonight. Still it’s Glenfiddich 12 for both me and the Hubby tonight.
July 4, 2025 at 7:33 PM
Time for an Old Fashioned. Cheers!
