After some self-indulgent discussions via the Dramface podcast, Murdo weighs in with his own takes; on writing, scoring and responsibility, while enjoying a very rare Bruichladdich.

After rekindling his love of scotch Eallair decides to put all the ‘natural’ and ‘integrity’ mantra to test. He selects what may be the two most obvious examples to sip side by side; Laphroaig’s ubiquitous 10yo and the popular Port Charlotte 10. This Friday First is not to be missed.

Never one to easily turn down a good deal, Broddy springs for one of his favoured Bruichladdich peated Port Charlottes with the recent sauternes cask SC:01. Did it live up to expectation? Well, yes, with a caveat.

Same distillery, similar distillation year, similar maturation, these whiskies are anything but similar!
