DrivenByDrams Speyside Tour - Planning

This year the DrivenByDrams gang paid a visit to Speyside, for me it was my first time that far north in Scotland.


We'd picked four 'warehouse tastings' and a number of distillery visits to fill our time!

Side by side: Two refill-sherry drams from The Sipping Shed

A recent tasting by #TheSheds of five @TheSippingShed releases allowed us to taste two refill sherry drams, 11yo's from Aultmore and Blair Athol.



Let's see how they compare!

Side by side : An indie Blair Athol single cask flight

An unassuming little distillery in an unassuming little town north of Perth as you enter the Highlands is the home of Bells - one of the biggest selling blends in the world.




You don't see many distillery bottlings but there are quite a few indies - here I'll try 3 single casks.
