A few recent acquisitions 1980s bottlings of Glenfiddich 15 and 18. 1980s bottling of Macallan 12 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

My summer planned trip to Cuba was scuppered so I did the next best thing... a whisky buying trip/tour of Scotland! Had a great week with a mix of rain and glorious sunshine. Some great pick ups too -

Blanton's gold US release

A bit of a curio that I managed to find recently - a Single Cask bottling of Glenfarclas that was distilled in 1985 and bottled in 2005 for the Earls of Zetland Malt Tasting Club which is apparent based in Adelaide, South Australia.

This is a commemorative bottling to celebrate their 20th anniversary.

It looks to be a cask strength 19 year old malt from cask no. 2825 which I suspect must have been a first-fill sherry cask.

Limited to only 323 bottles, I have no idea how it came to be available in a suburban bottle shop in Melbourne, Victoria.

The ullage is quite healthy though. An interesting find.

My first Bruichladdich after the ownership change, a rare French Single Malt aged in Cognac barrels, and another independent Bowmore.

I was gifted the Corryvreckan from a great BOTL at a gathering I hosted and it's a powerhouse of flavour, the Octomore I drank a third of my bottle at the first sitting, but that one won't be for everyone. I just grabbed the Laddie Black Art v3, and will try it out this weekend.

The Black Art is some very interesting stuff. I'm a fan, but it is very different from most Bruichladdich.

After being virtually sold out everywhere else in the world, it's finally released here in AUS.

Something else that got released in AUS, the first of our very own Melburnian special edition whisky. From the makers of Starward Whisky we have the New World Projects Single Cask Release #1.
