Henstone Red Wine Cask

As you probably saw a few drams were tried at Southport Whisky Winter Festival, one I wasn't able to try was @HenstoneDistill's new Red Wine Cask release

Luckily Chris gave me a sample to try at home!

#BTC39 #BlindDrams Tasting Notes

These are my tasting notes and results from the Blind Tasting Consortium's 39th #BlindDrams evening.

These drams were picked by Paul @pswhisky

Drinks by the Dram - Japanese Whisky Tasting Set

A lovely Christmas present last year was a @DrinksByTheDram Japanese Whisky Tasking Set

Five bottles from the Far East to try!

Auld Goonsy’s Mannochmore

Auld Goonsy’s? @GlobalWhisky? No I've never heard of them either but they bottle some very interesting whisky...

Let's have a look...

A Claxton's flight

I'm sure everyone knows @ClaxtonsSpirits an indie bottler who's bottles really mess up the spacing on your whisky shelves!

Their unusual square bottles really standout but they take up a lot of shelf space!

Southport Whisky Festival - Winter 2024

This year's @SouthportWhisky Festival was held in a great new venue, it was great to meet up with old friends and make some new ones!

Here's my thoughts!

White Peak Wire Works Full Port

@whitepeakwhisky's latest release is a Full Port maturation - four years in Tawny Port!

I've always been a sucker for Tawny Port if it's done right, let's have a look...

Loch Lomond Distillery Edition Four

Just before Christmas @LochLomondMalts released the fourth in their Distillery Edition series and then promptly had to recall them all...

Let's find out what happened but more importantly try the liquid!

Glenmorangie A Tale Of Winter

Glenmorangie holds a special place in my heart - it was my Dad's favourite tipple!

As it starting to get cold now - let's have a look at their A Tale Of Winter...

Newer Distilleries : Manx

This is the latest in an occasional series about newer distilleries, this entry is about @ManxMaltWhisky Company on the Isle of Man!

Manx have been distilling whisky since 2020 with their first release just out!
