So Mad mental May is finally over for another year. Spirit of Speyside Whisky Festival started us off, followed by Explore Campbeltown's Malts Festival, and finished by Fèis Ìle. We weren't at all of them, much as we would LOOOOOVVE to be, but the friends of the pub are generous with their time and efforts.
So we have festival bottlings from Speyside from: Glenfiddich Distillery, Glen Moray Distillery and Glenfarclas. As well as that, a supermarket sweep of Aberlour distillery got a armful of Distillery Reserve collection bottlings from Chivas distilleries
From our trip to Campbeltown we have a welter of single cask expressions from Glen Scotia, and we pillaged Cadenhead's Whisky Shop & Tasting Room - Campbeltown.
Spirited off the island, we received with open arms festival bottlings from Lagavulin, Bowmore Single Malt Whisky, Caol Ila and Laphroaig.
Our thanks to all our friends who helped us get this cornucopia together for you. Messrs Codere, Kemp, Murphy, Thomson and Mme Hamilton; we are in your debt.. Thank you also to the team behind the Glen Scotia trip; my own first time on the Mull of Kintyre will not be my last.
Now all we need is someone to drink them...
