This one was something of an impulse buy, purchased during a whisky shopping spree when I had a few bucks left for one more cheap bottle. In retrospect, I wish I’d spent the same money for some Sheep Dip…

A personal favourite. The mix of new and old using the solera system really makes this a unique dram. Little too much caramel E150a but it could be worse. I personally found adding water to simply dim…
