Time to kick off this month's #BlindDrams #BTC58 "The Mysterious Casks of the 74th Roy Easing Vatting" with Andrew aw708.bsky.social I've worked out the anagram for "Roy Easing Vatting", but not sure what the rest of it means!

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 #pswhisky
