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 -

Excellent finds, those Diageo bottlings of Flora and Fauna Mortlachs are really hard to come by these days.

Did you go to the distillery to get those Springbanks?

Yes mate, I was down at the open day earlier this year. Some cracking stuff. Got a cask strength Hazelwood matured in a sherry butt- absolute monster. Too good not to open!

Picked this up in the local supermarket. Relative bargain.

What are the dates in the goose? They are offering refunds for infected bottles.

Looking forward to the independent bottling. I thought I would start with this and work my way to the independents. Any particular ones I should try?

Camus Borderies XO. It was 20% less than standard retail, so I had to snap it up! :lol3:

Next gathering, shall we compare your new Camus XO to my vintage Camus XO? ;)
