Even in far-flung California, Archie is landing decent indie bottlings. In a follow up to his Woodrows Foursome, we have a Living Souls Trio: Two Smoky Sevens and a Speyside, all crackers.

Admitting one of his favourite Scottish destinations, Charlie laments not having visited Torabhaig, yet. However, he travels vicariously through an official and an indy from Thompson Bros.

Facing challenges of keeping up, Charlie realises it’s all too easy to forget things you’d already discovered. Like how much you like peat, bourbon casks - and Torabhaig Batch Strength & Sound of Sleat

We take a break from our summer, erm, break, to bring an epic team Dramface pile-on for the Thompson Brothers’ Mystery Malt Series No.2. Let’s see if we all pay attention to the try-it-blind memo this time.

Wally takes some time with Torabhaig’s latest in the Legacy Series; the sherry cask influenced Cnoc Na Moine. While he’s at it he dips into a little Scots Gaelic revival history.

Full-flavoured, characterful, and impressive even at a young age.
