It’s whisky night. Cracking open the new Jim McEwan Port Charlotte from Dramfool for the first time. Just the whiff from the bottle as I poured is heavenly.

Heute waren wir nach dem Frühstück bei #Bruichladdich zur Führung. #Sco2024 #Islay
I was planning on putting studded tires on my #bike tonight, but instead find myself defrosting my marrow with a glass of 10 year old heavy peated #Bruichladdich Port Charlotte #whisky.
A solid shift on the #BotanistGin #cocktail bar for #Bruichladdich #Distillery Open Day, part of the #FeisIle (#festival) on the #IsleOfIslay. Home now, knackered, dusty and sticky - fun times though.

A distillery exclusive, Octomore 13.4 joins the super-heavily peated 13.1, 13.2 and 13.3 to complete the collection.
#Octomore 13.4 is distilled from 100% Scottish Mainland Concerto barley and malted to a heavily peated 137.3 PPM.
Bottled at 61.6%, the spirit has matured in first fill bourbon casks, filled back in 2016, before being recasked into American Virgin oak casks.

A VIRTUAL TOUR OF SCOTLAND
We travel two miles north-east to Bruichladdich and to Bruichladdich Distillery, one of Islay's best known distilleries. The name is pronounced "Brook Laddie" and thought to come from the Gaelic for "raised beach", which reflects the location of the distillery.

A day of pork, wine and #Bruichladdich whisky excess yesterday, so today was blowing the cobwebs away with an icy walk at Drumpellier Country Park.

Elise and I attended a very interesting #whiskytasting last night at #SlijterijBerendsen in #Enschede. Whiskydistiller #MarkReynier, former owner of #MurrayMcDavid and #Bruichladdich and now owner of the Irish #WaterfordDistillery, told his view on whiskymaking and that was different then we ever heard before. The theory of mister Reynier over how important #terroir is in #barley and in the end of all flavours in the whiskybottle. Read more:
