Thanks to @thewhiskywire.bsky.social and @londondistilleryco.bsky.social for the chance to taste these drams. Great stuff #TLDCWhisky

Yesteryear was my fave of the three. Great cask influence without overwhelming the whisky. Well balanced #TLDCWhisky

The cask influence on Yesteryear seems greater than on the other 2 drams. On the palate, this is big & juicy. Maraschino cherries; Battenberg cake; pumpernickel #TLDCWhisky

Absolutely. For me, they all have aniseed and pine notes in common. You can tell they're siblings #TLDCWhisky

Also, hints of buttered pumpernickel on the nose (Yesteryear) #TLDCWhisky

On the palate, I'm getting that retsina note again. It's as apparent in Embarque as in 10 Times. Is this maybe the distillate character? #TLDCWhisky

There's a slight peach yoghurt note in the background of this one (Embarque) #TLDCWhisky

The pine resin note comes through on the nose of Embarque too #TLDCWhisky

Embarque - on the nose: orange marmalade on toast #TLDCWhisky

Lots of lemon and lime notes on the palate here #TLDCWhisky

Just go into Settings > Privacy & Security > App passwords - create a new one and use that when you log in to deck.blue #TLDCWhisky

I created a new app password and it worked first time after that #TLDCWhisky

On the palate, Ten Times Round The Sun is quite minty. Especially if you lick your front teeth 😊 #TLDCWhisky

Ten Times Round The Sun is also a little foosty on the nose #TLDCWhisky

Was in the queue for a good while but still managed to get tickets for all the Spirit of Speyside events I was after.
Who else is heading there?

🥃 Weekend #DramRollCall 🥃

Today's been a bit stressful so it's a easy going dram for me this evening. The Muckletoon from the folk at Moffat Distillery is a cracking blended malt for the price.

What's in your glass? Let me know in the replies 👇

Have noticed on Bluesky that there are hashtags for other things I'm interested in e.g:
📚 #booksky
🍺 #beersky
🧀 #cheesesky
But just realised that the main one was ready made 😂

As Aultmore, Craigellachie & Tamnavulin aren't open to the public either, I'm going to go with your greed theory 😂

Was always worth a try!

I'm gutted I can't make this. But this looks like it will be the best event of the festival 😂
