Kudos to Paul
@pswhisky.bsky.social
for organising another interesting lineup. It renewed my interest in Highland Park, and I'll be much more likely to buy a bottle. Dram #3 was my favourite, I think the wine cask finish worked well with the HP spirit Slainte! Score summary: 3,3,4,3,3

Tonight’s
#BlindDrams
hosted by us three Rentons (the Triumvirate, being three rulers) showcased whiskies from distilleries which are no more than 30 years old (Tridecadal, being a *ChatGPT word* for a 30 year period) - in honour of Lochranza Distillery’s (and Jamie’s) 30th birthday this year!

! We’d like to welcome you to open your packs (if you’ve not done so already) and pour yourself the bonus dram. We will do the same and will be raising a toast to our Mum, Kate Renton. No tasting notes required for this one, we’ll reveal what it is at the end.
