I’m in Brum I’ve just been served mulled wine in a half pint dimpled glass with a handle. That, my friend, is style

A tot rather than a dram for Christmas Eve. Foursquare Rum Distillery, Barbados. 15 years old, 58% ABV. Blend of Pot and Column distillation, matured in ex Bourbon casks. Private cask selection for Nickolls & Perks 225th anniversary. Might leave a glass out for Santa.

Annual Truth and Reconciliation lunch at Police Scotland Tayside was genuinely productive. I admitted I bent a few rules, they admitted they were largely motivated by jealousy +let me play with the big lamp they shine in folks faces when they falsely accuse them of nicking garden gnomes etc

Definitely my best brew so far. Not perfect, but now I feel like I have some idea of what I’m doing. My fifth attempt, I think.

Tonight's dram: Filey Bay Yorkshire Malt, Peated Finish, Batch 3. 46% ABV, natural colour non chill filtered.
First fill Bourbon casks then finished in peated casks. Result is very lightly peated, sweet but not bland.
Very enjoyable.

Amazing place, great food and fascinating company. Would be very tempted to book for the evening but I'm lunching there tomorrow.

2nd Dram: Lochlea Cask Strength Batch 1. ABV 60.1%. 1st fill Bourbon, finished in Oloroso barrels. Barley grown on their farm. Surprisingly smooth for a high ABV young spirit. A dash of water opens it up.
One to watch.
Fun fact Robert Burns worked on the farm from 1777 to 1784

This evening's dram: Tullibardine 225 Sauternes Cask Finish. ABV 43% no age statement. First fill ex-Bourbon, finished in 225 litre Sauternes Casks.
Soft and sweet. A dash of water doesn't improve it.
