One Woman’s World of Whisky

One woman’s view of the wonders of the “water of life”. A dram fan and a foodie who also enjoys a good gin, cognac, wine or cocktail or two!
Great day at the English Whisky Festival in Digbeth on Saturday. Great to catch up with some familiar faces and try some exciting new drams.

New bottle Saturday. SMWS Hearty and Boisterous. 9 yo 1st fill ex-Oloroso hogshead. Distillery 78. 59.2%. Not getting the roasted Brussel sprouts unfortunately, but it’s a tasty dram.

Last night’s drams from Fib. Mackmyra 8 year old green tea compared with the same cask with an Amontillado finish. Part of the Permutation Series. Both are excellent drams.

Amazing Milk & Honey tasting last night with Shilton Almeida exploring the Dead Sea casks. My fave was the Negev Desert but all were delicious.

Ending the bank holiday weekend with Octomore 10 yo. 167 PPM and 56.8% ABV. Despite the high PPM it’s a great balance of smoke and sweet.
