Doog’s annual sailing trips to Campbeltown with his sidekick Foosty have taken on different flavours of adventure every time. He shares part 1 at Cadenhead’s & a Spirit of Yorkshire that, in itself, takes him on a journey.

Introducing ‘Myrtle’: 2025’s latest Ardnamurchan Midgie Release. This time using a few port casks, she’s a charmer. Four of the team line up to introduce themselves. No repellent required.

Doog tops up an online order with something he’s never tried before, and this Murray McDavid Strathdearn (Tomatin) serendipitously opens up a conversation to reveal a ‘secret’ about its presentation.

Something got in the way of Doog’s enjoyment of what’s become ‘his whisky’. Fortunately for all, he worked out what it was, and faced it down. He bring us a MacLean & Bruce 5yo Ardnamurchan to share all.

Doog came scarily close to declaring a whisky a disaster. Fortunately, a 70cl bottle of Glasgow’s Small Batch Syrah was coincidentally diverted his way to save everyone’s blushes.

Whisky finds you. Sometimes it has to be found elsewhere and carried in a backpack over borders and mountains, but it finds you. Dougie was found by the latest Longrow 100º Proof.

Dougie needs to bump an order for free shipping and is drawn to a reasonably priced Woven Homemade Blend, which causes him to reflect on how his perspectives have altered immeasurably since the dark days.

Dougie recalls a weekend trip to Auld Reekie and reviews a whisky from there too. One which gathered viral attention from whisky folk & chocolate makers too, unfortunately - Master of Malt’s Dalry Milk.

Can a £28 blend satisfy the ever-curious Doog? Well, after scrutinising the packaging and sharing some interesting British supermarket nostalgia, this Leith Legacy leaves him truly surprised.

We often ensure new Ardnamurchan is directed through our resident Amber Prism. Wally ships Doog the Mezcal and he serves it up alongside two single cask crackers.

Dougie returns from recent distractions to grab two seemingly unrelated - at first - malts for a Misty Isle twofer: A Thompson Bros Ardnamurchan & an Inchdairnie Finglassie from Lady of the Glen.

Doog discovers that Lindores has finally cracked the code on Single Malt with this vibrant, neon-red, Fife Festival Exclusive Tawny Port Single Cask.

In grabbing an anticipated Batch 2 of Ardnamurchan’s Madeira Cask release, Wally decides to compare it to something that you might not expect. Building Lego. Specifically; post-2004 Lego.

How’s your Friday? Fancy a vivid trip to the west coast of Scotland on a moonlit night? Doog, literally, takes you there. With a nice SMWS single malt too.

Dougie scoffs a Fragrant Drops North British bottle-split but immediately orders a follow-up bottle and compares it to a 34yo counterpart. He likes, and the prices are remarkable.

It’s not like our Doog to forget his decorum, but a new year’s faux pas leaves him reeling with shame; has he become a whisky snob? He makes good with a Signatory 100 Proof Maybe-Macallan.

In reflective mode, Dougie does what we need him to do: close out the year with a retrospective via Ardnamurchan. AD/10, Sauternes and AD/Venturers all up for grabs. He pulls in Ainsley to help out.

When is travel retail not actually travel retail? And when should it be everywhere retail? Dougie gets ripped into Bruichladdich’s hidden gem amidst flying angst and acronyms.

A nice segue on from yesterday’s article, Nick thinks about age statements with Ardnamurchan’s latest USA exclusive ArdnAmerica release. Cue NYC backdrops & deploy the Doog!

A man struck by strong branding and potent design, Dougie spots something that isn’t whisky - as he knows it. But it is £32.50, so he fires in to explore Port of Leith’s ‘Table Whisky’.
