Got a bottle of Wee Beastie, it's a fiery one for sure, I suppose to be expected with a 5yr

Was drinking more of the Ardara of late.

I must say I've been rethinking that solvent / industrial note on the nose.

I've been realising that it's actually very similar to two Finnish peated whiskies I have had. A sort of wet, vegetal smokiness.

Picked up a few of the Christmas offers this week.

Trying the Powers Rye tonight, it's smoother than I expected, still got that rye spiciness, but well balanced . Great value at 30 quid in SV

"Whiskey-adjacent" but had finally opened up one of last year's Christmas presents - Two Stacks Double Cream Liqueur.

Dangerous stuff!

I remember reading the tasting notes on the first bottle I got when it was newly released. It sounded too good to be true, but was actually spot on. Fantastic when it's available at €30.
