It’s Tormore time! Pouring and exploring one of the three new core range releases from the distillery that was once a workhorse hero of the blending world and is now shining as a single malt star: Tormore 12 Year Old (46% ABV)… #Tormore #Scotch #Whisky #Dramlaxing

Back home after a night away in Edinburgh. Only ended up buying one #Whisky #Springbank #BackForTheWhisky

Aberlour A'Bunadh batch 81 - last dram from the bottle. #BackForTheWhisky #TheWorldsEndEdinburgh

So it starts 😉

Final 50th birthday adventure is underway. Going #BackForTheWhisky this could get messy 😉

I will continue to work on the concept of #WhiskyBacon but is there a something you would like me to add to the website? A specific tool or feature that would help you in your whisky adventure? #BackForTheWhisky?

#WhiskyBacon version 3 is now available backforthewhisky.com/whisky-bacon This version includes a search feature within the whisky list allowing you to start typing a brand. I’ve also added an expanded flavour path which can give a mini tasting session suggestion by linking flavour notes.

Looking forward to tonight's #AnnandaleWhisky tasting with @thewhiskywire.bsky.social #BePartOfTheDramfotainment #Scotch #Whisky

The most common search term on backforthewhisky.com is E150 / caramel colour, so I have setup a redirect for those search terms to whisky which have caramel colour added… whatever floats your boat! I’m not here to judge if you like your whisky unnaturally dark… I’ve reset the search & await… 😳

We’re just about done with tonight’s epic Fettercairn Tasting. A huge thanks to all those on X, Bluesky and Threads who took part and followed the dramfotainment. #FettercairnWhisky #ThankYouForBeingPartOfTheDramfotainment #Scotch #Whisky

Massive thank you to Steve Rush @thewhiskywire.bsky.social and #FettercairnWhisky for the opportunity to try these great whiskies! 🙏 🥃

They were all cracking whiskies. The Vanguard just tipped it on taste ahead of the 28 Year Old. I can’t recall ever having a Fettercairn before today. #FettercairnWhisky

Fettercairn 28 Year Old With water: Nose- more vibrant tropical notes with suggestion of petrichor & damp hay Palate - tropical notes appear less spice. Finish - Crème caramel & mocha. #FettercairnWhisky #BlueSkyTastings #TweetTastings #TheWhiskyWire

Fettercairn 28 Year Old Finish: oak & chocolate coated coffee beans. #FettercairnWhisky #BlueSkyTastings #TweetTastings #TheWhiskyWire

Fettercairn 28 Year Old Palate: oily & nutty. Vanilla and citrus with black pepper & hints of nut oil. Lovely heat & spice towards the end. #FettercairnWhisky #BlueSkyTastings #TweetTastings #TheWhiskyWire

I’m sure you’re as eager as I am to dive in and taste, so let’s do just that! What can you uncover and discover on the palate of the Fettercairn Aged 28 Years. #FettercairnWhisky #Scotch #Whisky

These epically aged sensory stories from Fettercairn are no strangers to our Tastings. Back in 2018, during one of our Tweet Tastings, we were fortunate enough to sip and savour their 40 and 50 Year Old expressions. #FettercairnWhisky #Scotch #Whisky

Fettercairn 28 Year Old Nose: Tropical fruit with golden syrup and ginger sponge cake. Melon, papaya & kiwi fruit. Caramelised ginger cake smothered in golden syrup. Some pepperiness on the back end. #FettercairnWhisky #BlueSkyTastings #TweetTastings #TheWhiskyWire

It’s time to move onto our third and final dram of the night, and a real drop of liquid history: Fettercairn Aged 28 Years. What sensory story does this one tell on the nose? #FettercairnWhisky #Scotch #Whisky

So I’ve just been blocked by a Canadian whisky drinker @canadian-beaver.bsky.social 👏🏻 thanks 🙏

Fettercairn Vanguard Finish: Pepper, oak, pressed caramel & tropical fruit bars. #FettercairnWhisky #BlueSkyTastings #TweetTastings #TheWhiskyWire

Fettercairn Vanguard Palate: honey, caramel, milk chocolate, chilli lemons, apricot, ginger, pepper, coconut, cereal #FettercairnWhisky #BlueSkyTastings #TweetTastings #TheWhiskyWire

Right gang, it’s time to taste! What does the Fettercairn Vanguard (first release) deliver on the palate? #FettercairnWhisky #Scotch #Whisky
