Hope you're all having something nice.

Off this week - took a trip up to Glendronach.

Had the quick tour (will need to get someone to drive me to a distillery sometime)

Bought a bottle of the distillery edition and a bottle of Grandeur (they had one bottle left if anyone else wants one).

Kinnell Tony, nice purchases. Was it Karen that took you round?

Probably because if he'd stopped in at yours, he wouldn't have been able to drive for the following 48 hours....

The next batch of the Glengoyne Teapot dram is in the shop.

I missed out on this last time, so got my order in nice and early this time.
Hope it's worth it.

I was in Tesco Westhills yesterday and they had Kavalan malt from Taiwan in stock.

Priced at £40 which looks to be cheap.
