Hit up a spot in Southsea for the first time recently and had one of the best old fashioned's I've had in a while
by far and away superior to the shower of shite I paid £12 for in Dishoom in London. "Our artisan (the barmans words) take on a traditional old fashioned" I later found out it had 'bay leaf and green tea reduction' in

@Anesthetist That gin is distilled without any labeling or promotion, solely for the owner of a local wine shop. It's wonderful, soft and with some discreet citrus touch. You bring your own bottles and they fill them up.

That sounds amazing, I love little distillers like that

Looking for a new bottle of Islay Scotch.
Can anyone attest to the quality of Ardbeg Wee Beastie? Fan of the 10Y but heard mixed reviews on this 5Y… -
@T4920 I haven’t tried the Ardbeg Wee Beastie so I can’t comment but if you’re looking to try something new I had a bottle of Kilchoman Sanaig recently that I really enjoyed. I think matured in Sherry casks like Ardbeg Uigeadail Let us know what you end up trying.
@Jett129 Just reading about your trip…looking forward to updates and pics! Something I’ve wanted to do for a long time.

Just finished our last Bourbon tour/tasting,which was at Michters. They’re all pretty similar in that they tell you what makes Bourbon…Bourbon. They also ,all, show you the various stages of their bourbon being made and then aged.They tell you why there’s is the best,and or different than all the others. They all offer tastings. We just had a surprise pour at The Michters distillery of their Barrel Strength bourbon,which I paid $25 for a pour of last night. Really great! On the Jim Beam tour they offer to sell you a bottle from a single barrel,and you get to slightly assist in the bottling,which is done right in front of you. After it’s done you can put your thumb print into the wax seal on the top. Jim Beam was the biggest distillery we visited, but they had a really great tour. Woodford Reserve was nice for the history and the fact that it’s so small. At the end of the Makers tour I got to dip my own bottle. We also visited Heaven Hill pretty much just to taste something I always wanted to try and it was on the way home. All the tour guides were really affable,and interesting,so even though I had my camera I ended up not taking many pictures. All in all a really great time. We also toured the Louisville Slugger baseball bat factory,and tomorrow we go to Churchill Downs for a tour and then home.
… cheers
