Whisky and erm, Defenders. What could possibly go wrong?

Last of the night - a distillery that hasn’t been built yet, so a “what we would like to be” dram, hopefully it’ll produce something like this when they eventually get there - it’s not too shabby.

Continuing the theme of drams I’ve not had for a while…… Little Brown Dog, Ardmore. Yum. 😋 Subaru branding of course.

The private Warehouse tasting at Glen Moray on Friday afternoon (fantastically hosted by Fiona) was superb. 4 drams from 4 casks, a 10yo, a 20yo, a 30yo and a 40yo all experienced sitting in their warehouse.

Sticking with Loch Lomond, sticking with the 12yo, just a different style. Single cask, bottled for Robbie’s Drams. 🥃

#PostboxSaturday I don’t often partake but thought this little number was worthy. On Ulva, a tiny island off the island of Mull……

I’m on my second bottle of the GS, and the Tomintoul is now gone!

I picked it up at the distillery a couple of years back Thomas. I liked the GS too, and this doesn’t disappoint. So much so Ive almost finished it 😂

Been on Mull this week, had a great time even though the weather was variable. Got some distillery exclusives to take home from Tobermory, but been drinking this delight all week 🥃

Will be visiting the distillery soon, so thought I’d do a bit of research 🧐 And at £40 it’s not too bad 🥃

First evening for a long time that the 6 Dram Zoomers have been together. So so so many amazing drams tasted.

Me too - had a private tasting in their warehouse, they’ve got some special things in there…..

Craigellachie did “drams under the bridge” at SoS (they may still do) for £10 which was donated to charity, and they gave you 2/3 drams and a Glencairn - always brought absolute bangers with them to try.

Oh, I do like a Riach. A really nice distillery too Mick, folks there are so friendly and welcoming. We did a blend your own session and tasting tour a few years back.

Had a nice day, been off the drams for a few weeks but the wagon has been well and truly fallen off today!

Having a few drams today, good round on the golf course (one of my best scores ever) accompanied by the Cadenheads 7 stars in my hip flask to keep me warm….. back home and a nice wee selection of dramples so far

Ardnamurchan today - arse end of nowhere, rain lashing down and more windy than the scene from Blazing Saddles…… Warm and friendly reception, great tour and a very generous selection of Drams to warm us up on a cold day! 🥃 Ruby Port 5yo is stunning……

Long drive in shitty weather but was great to visit Ben Nevis today. Didn’t get to see everything as they have a lot of work going on at the distillery but we were well looked after and had some good drams! 🥃 Highlight for me was the Coire Leis.

Had a great evening with a great friend - dinner then a selection of drams……. Including a sample of a 50yo that I can’t mention but was superb!

Jason’s Defender and Drams @jasondefenderdrams.bsky.social · 27/11/2025
@ekstromenator.bsky.social I agree with you, the 18 Speyburn is 👌 Benefits from a higher ABV at 46% Gives chocolate, toffee, nuttiness.

Jason’s Defender and Drams @jasondefenderdrams.bsky.social · 27/11/2025
Couldn’t agree more Scotty - fascinating seeing the old drum maltings, and they were very generous with the drams too.

Jason’s Defender and Drams @jasondefenderdrams.bsky.social · 27/11/2025
Moving on to a 10yo Speyburn, 40% abv. Visited the distillery this year during the spirit of speyside festival and took their distillery managers tour - I was really impressed. Hadn’t been on my radar much before then but have a few bottles on my shelves now…. 🥃
