If people take offence or feel the need to take out their aggression/anger for what’s happened and is happening against people due to their nationality without asking their opinion, then they are no better than those they are supposedly acting/rebelling against. Do not apologise.

Wow that first image is from February 2020…..a lot has changed in that time. I mean it doesn’t even look like the same man. Imagine thinking in this day and age that you NEED to wear a suit. Outdated ideas.

The June 2021 bottle was Jura 18 and was actually ok considering. Not like some of their other standard offerings which a few have been absolutely horrendous. Anyway, don’t think Dan would do the same bottles again even if it’s been a few years. Unless something changed with the brand possibly.

Picked up a couple of bottles ‘on sale’ in Harvey Nics. Laphroaig Elements 1.0, tell you what when you compare to some of their other standard bottlings, this has a much better profile and mouthfeel. Also got some Storywood Double Oak cask strength Añejo tequila. Wowzers that is some good 💩 to sip 🥃

I’ll actually pay attention next time I’m wandering by. Usually having to navigate the tourists 😂

that in writing. Oh I will indeed put it in writing along with a message to my SA of the store to let them know that all preorders for incoming stuff if the New Year is to be cancelled and refunded in full today. I am done with brands that can’t actually be honest with their customers

but it’s still ‘pending validation’ so I call them and they say sorry it’s still not been allocated. It will be another 4 to 6 days to be allocated. Can you guarantee that? No. So you’ve got my money, you’ve had it for weeks and cannot confirm when this will arrive. How do I cancel? You need to put

I ordered something for Mike well before Christmas, before his Birthday even. It was due to arrive by Christmas and then they said it would be the 27th. Not a huge deal, although it meant more expense to buy another gift albeit not as expensive. It’s still not arrived, estimated delivery is tomorrow

The former not actually being a bourbon but a sour mash whiskey but probably the gateway into bourbon for a lot of people. Interesting that Evan Williams is also a Welsh name and undoubtedly went after JDs market. I’ve actually picked up some Evan William recently and it’s been enjoyable.

I honestly have no idea what is wrong with people. It was clear that something terrible had happened to someone involving a bus at Hanover Street with George Street, yet people were crowded round, in the middle of the road, phones out like it was some sort of show. Have some respect people.

I’m attending a quiet whisky tasting later, should be fun. Now what I don’t know is if we’re inside or outside with cigars on the terrace. Rather way, I’m wrapping up!

Could be worse. Just a slight irritation but good weekend of drams (nearly typed drama there 🤣) so onwards and upwards 🥃

It’s things like this that boil my pi$$. I have a space but returned from the garage to find someone in it. I know who and I’m dealing with it. I took a non allocated space and find this prick parked this close with a good 3 foot maybe more on their nearside. Knowing the C30 has been there since 6pm

What’s the point of those teeny weenie beanie hats that resemble rolled up condom? When your ears look like a red beacon, I feel like it’s a waste

Gotta love the utter selfishness of people on a busy Train, taking two seats. One for them and one for their bag whilst people have to stand. See you next Tuesdays of the highest order

There is a small number of people who put to flip but the market has changed in favour of the buyer so it’s becoming more ‘available’. If I find any and it’s rrp I’ll see if they can ship and let you know.

So I’ve got myself back into the game and I’m ready to buy yet more whisky I do not need. First up, the new Distillers Dram from The Glenturret. I’ve seen the notes and it sounds perfect for this time of year 🥃

It is very ‘do’ able. The last releases I found at rrp in a shop local to me weeks after release and I thought I had gone back in time 😂

It looks like an experiment gone wrong.

Another cold but beautiful night here by Ben Ledi

Christ when you wrote the post it was afternoon so 100% ok for any type of booze

I actually started trying to find people based on what I knew their handle to be on X but quickly realised that there are many people not here, yet!

It’s a cold one this morning 🥶

Lovely wander up Ben Ledi today with every season. As dusk arrives, it’s time for a log fire and a dram 🥃

Well this platform seems very familiar, just a lot less crowded. I might, just might get myself back into talking nonsense online about booze instead of standing in shops talking about it and people thinking I work there 🥴🤣
