With a difficult-to-ignore desire to study more, Ally asks where his motivations lie in seeking whisky qualifications that will never be used. A classic Glasgow Small Batch is the subject of study for today.

Mason brings a small batch release from Signatory to the table as he considers how something so beautiful can be presented in a vessel so ugly, that he loves it. This one calls for poetry.

A shipping miscommuniqué sees various Dramface team members end up with whisky they didn’t expect. This time it’s Glasgow’s 1770 Constantia and it means three can join in on the review.

Some whiskies split the crowd. At Dramface, we have the luxury of occasionally being able to harness that. Like this Glasgow 1770 Pineau Des Charentes. Is Fletch’s bonfire Hughie’s damp campfire?

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.

Some new, cracking value, Glasgow 1770 Small Batch releases have dropped. Dougie leads a team up with Drummond and Wally to check out the Madeira and the Islay Cask. Don’t miss these.

After not really trying much Lowland whisky, Hamish notes that today he's spoiled for choice. But what is Lowland? He sits with another Glasgow Small Batch release and Fergus joins in.

A triple review of a recent Glasgow Small Batch cask strength bargain; whisky provided by the distillery for Hamish and Fergus, but Doog buys his own. An interesting three-way take.

In a breakaway move, the Dramface Colonials conspire at their water cooler, setting up their own splinter cell. Happily, it results in a virtual sipping session and collaborative review of this Baker’s 7 Bourbon.

Dougie takes another look at Glasgow 1770 with two releases: their Unpeated Cognac Cask Finish and Manzanilla Sherry Cask Fully Matured. In them he finds how a few key decisions made well can swing the opinion of many.

A wiser-than-her-years daughter encourages Ogie to grab some whisky swag before heading to his new, state-controlled liquor, home. It proves fruitful as he bags himself a lesser-seen Kilchoman dusty.

In what seems to have become something of a theme, in life Ogilvie mirrors his approach to whisky by uprooting and heading off top new horizons. As he says “there’s something in the water cooler at Dramface HQ” is it this Strathmill?
