Our resident Parisian Ainsley is still unpacking the madness that was Glasgow’s Whisky Festival in 2025. With some distance, he also unpacks a lesser seen indie Auchentoshan from newcomers Whisky Craft.

In discovering a cracking SMWS Loch Lomond Inchmurrin, Broddy goes full Broddy and gives us a deep dive into our scoring, the whys and the whats and the hows. It’s fascinating.

After Dougie’s whirlwind November, he finally has time to sit with his Fragrant Drops 13yo Glen Garioch. Since it’s rainy, he also uncorks his all-time Geery pinnacle bottle for a side-by-side.

As a stickler for justice, Fletcher gives a shout out to the 200 years old Edradour. As he sips this new, all natural 10yo, he wonders what would’ve happened if it hadn’t been saved.

On this Throwback Dramface review, we see a wiser-than-her-years daughter encourage Ogilvie to grab some whisky swag before heading to his new home. It proves fruitful as he bags himself a lesser-seen Kilchoman dusty.

Charlie has some agonising to do over his accumulated open bottles. He dives in to cull some off which, happily, brings this Arran 18yo to the fore, and he discovers it’s the first time we’ve reviewed it.

A solid and dependable dram is needed to help Mason come down after a whirlwind trip to Glasgow for the annual Whisky Festival. This Fragrant Drops Elevenses Linkwood does the trick nicely.

Wally returns to ask why there are so many silly protectionist rules around stating where a whisky is made - and to who’s detriment when it’s so. He does so over a rather lovely Living Souls 19yo ‘Kildalton’.

Once in a while along comes a flavour profile that stretches our frame of reference in whisky enjoyment. Enter Hughie and his astonishment over a bottle of Ardara Irish Single Malt. He’s intrigued.

Fergus tries Glasgow malt at Glasgow whisky festival, only to ask it to live up to the experience when he has it back home. He also makes some observations about openness and transparency, and the humility of cities.

Ogilvie leads a four-way collab review of a…collab. This time it’s the 3yo blended Scotch from Living Souls x Thomspon Bros: a sherry/peat blend and cracking value.
