A fan of the annual fun laid on by Fife’s Festival, Dougie uncorks this year’s official event bottling by Fib Whisky and realises Glenglassaugh might be yet another distillery to get his eager teeth into.

Another continental buddy up today as Earie and Ainsley pour over a trio of different takes on Ardmore while considering the pitfalls of brand loyalty.

Trusting his fellow Dramfacers, Broddy dives deep into the Glen Garioch rabbit hole (on discount - of course), but he chooses this 17yo to start with, and it does not go well.

Paisley, so inspired by her experiences with recent Glenglassaugh releases, decides to go visit. Then immediately decides not to. She shares why.

Before pitching two big-hitting, and not inexpensive, Glen Garioch bottlings against each other, Doog decides to wait for his bad mood to pass.

Despite promising himself some restraint, our Hamish has been stealing from the auctions again. This time he’s snagged two young Ardmore indies; a favourite catch.

Considering the role of malt whisky today versus what it was in the very recent past, Fletcher goes looking for something akin to Batman; that which is capable of being more than just one thing.

Saving a special bottle for a quiet moment, Ramsay swims in a dusty and now discontinued Glencadam 21yo while wondering if it’s worth reviewing hard-to-find bottles. We must Tav! We must!

As part of a ‘team building exercise’ Hamish is invited to stretch his olfactory senses in a structured test. His colleagues - knowing he’s a whisky reviewer - determine that he’ll “boss it”. Well, did he? You know the answer…dontcha?

A self-declared fan of Dr Barrie, Tyree steals some bottles from his workplace to share his take on the recent rebrand of Brown-Forman’s Glenglassaugh. Will our fan of the experienced blender still be as enamoured after a glass or two?

The inner turmoil of to-buy-or-not-to-buy, Drummond’s internal battle occurs in a Glasgow supermarket aisle. You already know which side wins, but was it a war worth waging?

Sherry depth is rare in budget bottlings, so while Ramsay is searching for some light ABV summer sippers he dodges the overpriced Glencadam 18yo in favour of two of their budget-friendly NAS sherry finished expressions, with surprising results.

Earie enjoys a delicious indie Glenglassaugh that’s right up his street on flavour and presentation while pondering why the recent official releases chose to go all ChatGPT.

It may be the height of summer for us ‘up North’, but for Tyree it’s time for crackling fires, clean sherry-bombs, and time to reflect upon the things that matter.

A heartwarming tale from Doog, where olive branches work better than punishment. This Ardmore from Whisky Broker is just one of the eventual rewards for a changed man.

As Elis gets to spend a little time with three “try before you buy” banger WhiskySponge releases, he’s prompted to cover the topic of trust and how it’s implicit in everything that works.

A golden ticket adventure or just another whisky tease?
