Upon discovering Borders’ under-the-radar inaugural release for £35, Fletch gets excited, but is immediately disappointed and takes a moment to offer some ‘feedback’. Oh dear.

What at first seemed like an expensive souvenir from a distillery visit required a bottle split between Archie and Hamish. They soon realise with 66% ABV and incredible depth of flavour they should’ve maybe grabbed one each.

In the search for a good value bottle Wally finds the Campbeltown Loch from J&A Mitchell most agreeable, but he’d just like a little help to more easily determine which one he’s drinking.

One of the best flavour vs price options out there

Broadening horizons

Well-finished and balanced, except for the tippy bottle.

It’s the difficult Second Album from Shortcross…or is it?
