In evangelising some friends, Hughie encounters all-too-common blend prejudice. To counter, he hunts for a good value, sherry cask sipper to help his pals embrace the B-word. Might this Old Perth be it?

Hughie ignores travel retail on his business trips. As such he embraces the serendipity of what he might find locally. Today, he’s found a rye so compelling, it forces him to agonise over scoring it.

Another debut for Dramface. Hughie, through multiple false starts, eventually falls for whisky, but not through the ‘typical’ route. His vibe is the off-piste flavour hooks & this Loch Lomond 12yo brings it.
