For our last community online tasting of the year, we are going to review some very fine drams indeed. I feel there is a good balance here, between young and old & rare, and each and every dram ties into a particular ECW whisky tasting, tour or event from this past year. We will enjoy whiskies from the 1950's to the 2010's, something not really available anywhere else!!
Now I appreciate this is the busiest time of year so it will be possible to get the recording and play & taste at your leisure during the festive season. Certainly these will bring great cheer!!
