Springbank 18yo in my basket…I’m checking out straight away…and before I can it’s sold out. So frustrating

Thanks I’ll check it out

I got my hands on one. Too good a deal. Possibly would never of tried it if it wasn’t for the deal

How do you find such good deals? I’m impressed. Please could you find me a bottle of Thompson bros Laphroaig 8yo?😂 thanks

Mental deal. What’s Scapa like? Never had any before

I’m definitely going next year

That Holyrood is stunning! So glad someone recommended it at the Kendal Whisky Festival

The 10yo is a lovely dram. Apart from the age it looks like the make up.

Sounds tasty.

How different is it from the 10yo?

Tonight’s #BlindDrams hosted by us three Rentons (the Triumvirate, being three rulers) showcased whiskies from distilleries which are no more than 30 years old (Tridecadal, being a *ChatGPT word* for a 30 year period) - in honour of Lochranza Distillery’s (and Jamie’s) 30th birthday this year!

how did you end up with a couple of bottles of this
