    certie...

    Bladnoch is a La'llan malt (almaist the last o' it's kind)...

    it is a lighter and maire delicately flavoured than maist Hei'lan malts...

    very lawly peated (ainly 3 parts per million phenols o' peat)

    the dominate flavours/scents arr o' cereal, cut straw, honey, an a wee linger o' lemon and vanilla.... there seems tae bae a wee blast o' mornin sunshine in every dram...

    mmmmmmm........ tasty...

    Aye, brings back memories. Speaking from experience, the bad news is whisky knackers the liver, but the good news is that the liver recovers once you stop drinking the whisky and you live on to champion another interest. Thanks for sharing these excellent pics with us, P1M and enjoy your whisky while you can.
