- Feis Ile = The Islay Festival of Music and Malt…
…and our whole reason…
…for coming to the UK!
- Today is Bunnahabhain Distillery Festival Day
My Wee Little Drams
- 11 am – Manager & Senior Blenders Dram Tasting
- 4 pm – Wee little nap time
7:30 pm – Global Whisky Auctions...
…Tasting of 7…
…“Old, Rare and interesting Islay Drams”…
…some still available…
…some gone but not forgotten…
…and some that might be very unique indeed.
FUN-fact – Whisky tasting is a whole lot like wine tasting…
…swirl, smell, sip, swallow.
- And how does it taste? …soft & subtle…or strong?… smoky, spicy, salty, sweet?
More FF – My favorites today are the ones…
…finished in the sherry & red wine casks…
…takes the edge off and more smooth.
