CLYNELISHED - Friday 21st April 2023

Now here is something very special...another little online whisky festival, this time celebrating the sheer joy of modern Clynelish whisky. All of these drams are beautiful, as we take you on a journey from 12 to 40 year old monsters, all in comparison to the core range 14 sweetheart!!

As well as the 14 drams, you will also receive a complimentary secret dram and something very special in your pack.

Prepare to be amazed.

The Drams

All CLYNELISH, all great, but you are right that is the oh so rare recently released 1982 40 year old at the end!! Also another secret hidden in behind.

The tasting will be held on ZOOM, from 7.30-10pm GMT on Friday 21st APRIL 2023 (If you can’t make this time, a recording will be available afterwards).

The tasting is informative, yet also informal, with everyone able to join in, and share their whisky enthusiasm!

The 15ml drams will be mailed to you, 1st class signed for (in a padded box) at least a week before the tasting. International shipping is available upon request.

You will also receive some tasting clues, the running order, and the Zoom link in the days before the event.

It's a CLYNELISH super session, what else is there to say, except there may be a couple of surprises along the way. If you not really experienced CLYNELISH before, this is the perfect way to do so!!

GLENBURGIE FOREVER Tasting - Friday 10th March

Another month brings another special vertical whisky tasting. This time focusing on the delights of Glenburgie distillery. Pernod Ricard's finest!! I seriously love it's wild Speyside fruitiness and tastes of times gone by. To do it proper justice we will travel back to the early Sixties, and also drink 45 year old whisky (and not be disappointed!!)

The Drams

Some serious whiskies here, including the latest super tasty Thompson Brothers offering, as well as some beasts from 1975 and before!! Also Glencraig, the Lomond stilled Glenburgie spin-off, and a mystery bottle!! That's 13 + 1 excellent whiskies.

The Details
