Drummond finds something of an excellent teleporter in this Glen Scotia 15yo, which takes him all the way back to Campbeltown. He teleports in Broddy and Dougie to share a dram too.

A very specific whisky is called for as three old friends gather in support of each other. In the face of acute loss, Ogilvie calls upon Balvenie's classic 12yo Doublewood to assist in catharsis.

In a buddy up review Gilbert and Ramsay enjoy this summery Lochlea Harvest 3rd Crop, while Ramsay asks; when it comes to young malt - is peat a cheat?

Continuing our quiet nod to Ardnamurchan's 10 years making whisky, Nick chimes in with a 5yo oloroso Single Cask Nation bottling. But would he invite it to dinner?

Feeling the pressure of critiquing things fairly, Wally sinks a dram or two of epic Ardnamurchan and has a think about the blowback that those who do it right may suffer, simply due to being praised.

As Ardnamurchan turns 10 years old, Drummond dives into their recent Golden Promise release single cask; the one for the George Hotel in Inveraray. To suggest he likes it is an understatement.

Dougie takes stock, shares where he's at and shares every sealed bottle he owns that's about to be cracked and reviewed. He starts with Aberlour's Cask Annamh Batch 0001.

After a tough few weeks, we hear why we’ve heard little from Ogie, and he’s been through the wringer. However, after a dusty find via his thoughtful son, this BenRiach sets him back on his feet.

As Ramsay dips into an intriguing new English whisky from Bristol’s Circumstance, you only really need to read this: ”I have not tasted another three year old whisky as good as this.”

Feeling very grateful that he was able to find stock of Kilkerran’s latest 8yo Cask Strength, Earie celebrates the many retailers that choose to stick to MSRP, and what that actually means.

The Dougie Crystal Blend. A meticulous, carefully crafted plan to create the best possible blend, was quickly tossed out the window as the giddiness of eight cask strength bangers took hold.

Once in a while Dramface tries to break the whisky internet. This time it’s Broddy’s attempt as he tries all the sherry, alongside associated whiskies. As a noob. And shares it blow by blow. What a session!

Wally takes some time with Torabhaig’s latest in the Legacy Series; the sherry cask influenced Cnoc Na Moine. While he’s at it he dips into a little Scots Gaelic revival history.

Trying to uncover the difference between ‘cask strength’ & ‘batch strength’ Paisley finds she doesn’t have it all figured out. She also finds a banger of a Kilchoman.

Looking ahead to a wet summer and thinking of summers past, Dougie wanders on to wonder why Lindores hasn’t caught fire with the exciter crowd just yet. He offers two banging examples of why it should.

Ramsay and Fergus buddy up for a wander through the most recent outturn from Watt Whisky. Exploring a grain, a blend, two malts and a Guyana rum, they actually find some consensus!

On a trapse to the Big Smoke to explore some whisky in his favourite bar, Doog catches the lurgy. But not before he discovers a belter of a Ben Nevis form Woodrows - and the concept of a bloodtub.

Before pitching two big-hitting, and not inexpensive, Glen Garioch bottlings against each other, Doog decides to wait for his bad mood to pass.

After some epiphany moments sipping Lochlea with pals, Hamish charges out to buy a bottle, only to ponder whether it’s the whisky or the company that makes the best whisky memories.

When we love whisky so much, it’s hard to be brutal about some of the obvious negatives. Yet sometimes, when things are clearly wrong, we just have to call it out. This decision was not taken lightly.
