The Dram Team – Clan Denny – Glenburgie 2009
Generosity is such an important quality. It comes in many forms: generosity of hospitality, generosity of spirit, and even generosity of honesty. You must have these sorts of people in your life. Chris, who runs The Dram Team, is one of these people. I feel lucky to know him and am always buoyed by time in his company. Which brings me to a whisky.

The Johnnie Walker Experience
"In for a penny, in for a pound." The last whisky-based experience of our Edinburgh trip was the most likely to go horribly wrong. I like Johnnie Walker Black, and I have been lucky enough to try Johnnie Walker Blue, but I have never loved the brand nor felt that moved to try more of their whiskies. Their brand has always felt to me to be style over substance, but when in Rome (or in this case, Edinburgh).

Port of Leith Distillery
Leith is a cool place, with a collection of some of the best craft beer breweries in Scotland. So when I found out that there was also a really interesting new distillery there, I was 100% sold. We visited on a Saturday, touring the distillery at lunchtime before heading back into town to visit Campervan, Newbarns, Lost in Leith, and a few other good pubs.

Holyrood Distillery
I am a big believer in gambling money on experiences. You rarely regret what you do, but often regret missing out on things that you wish you had done. Visiting Holyrood Distillery was one of these gambles. Not only had I never tasted anything that they had produced, but I hadn't heard of them at all, until I was searching for things to do near The Dagda Bar.

Palate: Starts super sweet with a golden syrup vibe. This is followed by oak notes that are both floral and fruity. Finally, a gentle spice emerges that is toasty and nutty.

Aroma: At first this is full of vanilla custard notes, followed by pear tart, gentle ginger spice and a barn full of straw.

Heart Cut – #15 – Starward
Confirmation bias is a powerful thing. I knew that I was going to like this whisky before I even opened it. I've been a Starward fan since first trying their first whisky, all the way back in 2018 (See here for review). I have always felt that they offered something different from a lot of other whiskies. This is most likely due to their use of wine casks (and other odd casks - they do a ginger beer cask finish!), but it is also due to their distillate.

Spey – 15 Year Old STR
I love a whisky tasting, they are great for many reasons, here are my top three: It is always good to try a range of whiskies from the same distillery because it gives you a much better feel for the type of spirit that they produce. You get a chance to hear a distillery's story and find out about their aspirations, passions, and motivations as a company.
