What a month… in Germany we are back in a period of restrictions (I wouldn’t say lockdown). What to do? Switch gears to some fabulous virtual tastings!
The month was clearly made more joyful with the launch of our European chapter of the Whisky Ladies of Mumbai…
1st session with a Chorlton Trio
- Royal Brackla 11 year (Oct 2006 / Feb 2018) Refill Hogshead 55.2%
- Fettercairn 12 year (2006/2019) Refill Barrel 57.4%
- Inchgower 11 year (2007/2019) Refill Hogshead 52.5%
4th session with North Star’s
- Speyside 12 year 50%
- Auchroisk 13 year (2006/2019) Oloroso Sherry Hogshead 51.2%
- Glenturret 8 year (2010/2019) Refill Hogshead 58.3%
What else?
I finished a few more tasting notes from my September Glasgow / London trip which included creation of a Glengoyne 16 year Original “Carissa” Cask Strength. And a merry evening of American minis featuring:
- Hudson Baby Bourbon 46%,
- TBWC 24 year Bourbon No 1 48%,
- Balcones Single Malt 53%,
- Whistle Pig Rye 50%
Plus some miscellaneous malty musings with:
- Anticipating my “score” from Nurnberg’s “The Village” Fest from February 2019 – Bruichladdich, Glencadam, St Kilian
- Meandered down tasting notes from an evening in July 2019 at Berlin’s Union Jack
- Most summers I try to fit a trip to Manitoba to see family and friends… Obviously this year was unthinkable however as the fall colours arrived, I found myself missing Canada… The solution? Order up a few Shelter Point for a mythical future trip!
It was a busy month with still more to come…
- A London evening with Sukhinder Singh, The Whisky Exchange
- Germany’s Willkommen with a weekend trip to Ziegler Distillery with a tasting tour of Aureum Whiskies together with the German Sharing Angels
- St Kilian samples
