I haven't bought this one yet. Might hold up. Still haven't opened last year's and have another of the epic rum cask to open!

Yes it's been great to take some time over that. Very interesting. Summer drams!

I have a clear winner and one more I would probably buy. As for the rest, a couple are ok and a couple I just wasn't keen on.

In 1st, the 10 yo Palo Cortado Octave
In 2nd it's the 12yo Chardonnay wine yeast.

Thanks again @maltmusings.bsky.social for the chance to properly explore Loch Lomond 🥃

Ah that's great to see such high scores across the board. Especially pleased to see you enjoyed the single gain and the Shortcross Belfast whiskey week bottle. Is that big Bushmills lovely? Yes. Is it worth £400?......

Yeah just a little indentation and as the kid closes it pushes the yolk to one side 😎

Crack a raw egg in one. Takes practice but amazing when done right!

This one was my favourite of all. So much so that I bought another bottle which is unusual for me. I agree about the Cask Strength. There's amazing flavour in there but probably an example where CS doesn't always equal better

Hey there, yes @maltmusings.bsky.social just hit me at the right time 😁

So glad you liked this Brian. And this was only my second favourite Short cross. I think you have the other
