May brought adventures around India with trips to Kolkata, Kochi with a nice juicy project in Mumbai. It also brought the heat before the monsoon… shifting from mere heat to drenching humidity.

All three tasting groups also got into the action!

The Whisky Ladies and our original group enjoyed Bruichladdich Peat Progressions with:

• The Classic Laddie 50% – A delightful dram to start an evening… (Whisky Ladies only)
• The Laddie Eight 50% – Nose keeps evolving, following through on the palate  (Original only)
• Bere Barley (2008) 50% – Rustic and original  (Whisky Ladies only)
• PC 2007 CC:01 8 years 57.8% – Give it time to open, it is completely worth the wait!
• PC 12 Oileanach Furachail 58.7% – Industrial, bursting with character yet oddly also restrained and almost elegant too
• Octomore 07.2_208 5 years PPM 208 58.5% – Absolutely stunning and a cut above!
• Octomore 07.1_208 5 years PPM 208 59.5% – Again…
