A funky #GlenScotia with a delicious port finish. Although unpeated, it has a very tasty earthy note on the (my) palate.

Exploring something new tonight, a dram from the very young #Bonnington distillery. Based in Leith, #Edinburgh, they started production in 2020. This one was matured in virgin oak. Sweet with intense rye aroma, it could be a bourbon whiskey.

Tonight's dram is like being unexpectedly visited by an old friend. It's been a while since I last had a bottle of this, still a real cracker 🥃❤️😋

Having a special dram with my son, who turned 30 last week. This 1995 #Glendronach (cask 543) was distilled on the exact same day he was born. 🥃❤️

Today's contribution to #PostboxSaturday was sent to me by my friend Yiannis all the way from #Detroit. An old US #postbox displayed at the #HenryFordMuseum in #Dearborn. Wishing you all a good weekend 📮❤️

What a fitting name for this #Penderyn dram from #SMWS. Finished in what likely was an overly active moscatello cask, it's weird, but I loved every drop of it. Perhaps because I'm weird myself. Anyway, just one dram today, let's make it a proper one 😂🥃❤️

After what's basically been a peatless week, a solid dose was required tonight. The #Lagavulin 8yo doesn't disappoint, it's a fabulous dram. 🥃❤️

Since QEII left us, the world seems to have gone bonkers. Luckily @bimberdistillery.bsky.social created this little gem to commemorate her Platinum Jubilee to help us cope 🥃❤️.

It's a pity Lochranza distillery will stop producing peated whisky. But there's an excellent alternative on the island from Lagg Distillery. This BYO (£70) is fabulous 🥃❤️
