    Excellent illustrated report, P1M; great pictures and an enjoyable read. But I think you would have needed a larger kilt to conceal that illicit still!

    Great pictures-what you cant relate in pictures is the smell of the distillery, its something else. Wonderful

    Interesting read. And a lovely wee drop it is too! The lowland single malts tend to get overlooked a lot. I'm currently enjoying a distiller's edition 1988.
