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.

Anyone for tea? 🤔 Gotta love a Glengoyne teapot dram (batch 7)

It’s lovely Thomas- it’s got an effervescence on the palette, with toffee and dark sugar, and then a sweetness comes on the finish. 👌

We didn’t make Iona as the weather wasn’t great. Went to Ulva though, which was good. Decent food at the boathouse and a walk around the island

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.

Finishing off with a 27yo single grain Loch Lomond, independent bottling from Douglas Laing, their Old Particular range.

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 😂

Jason’s Defender and Drams @jasondefenderdrams.bsky.social · 17/09/2026
I like that they’ve given it some time before releasing it. Unlike many others who throw it out as soon as it hits the 3 year mark. As has been said, the price point is pretty exceptional in current climate

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 🥃

18 year old Macallan without the packaging from SV. Sub £100. But of a kick int he nuts to the distilleries own pricing, bottled at 57.1%. Of course we ponder why 18 year old whisky should cost so much more than 17, 16 or 15 year old whisky whilst we sip. www.thewhiskybarrel.com/products/mys...

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

I do like an IB these days - both in terms of price point and their more adventurous approach to casks

Managers changes didn’t make sense to me Andrew. They needed an out ball but subs were very defensive

Ah, with Craig - he did our Springbank tour this morning 👍🏻

Jason’s Defender and Drams @jasondefenderdrams.bsky.social · 16/05/2026
Was really good - basic format; - 8 different blind drams - Nose & taste each one - Make up a 7ml blend based on your favourites - keep creating 7ml blends until you hit on one you like - bottle a 700ml version of your blend to take home - Once you create & fill your bottle the drams are revealed

Jason’s Defender and Drams @jasondefenderdrams.bsky.social · 16/05/2026
