Spirit review no. 6 - Pusser's Gunpowder Proof Guyanan British Navy Rum

 Day three of my rum advent calendar and mixed results so far. I saw this one was on the list an was quite excited. It was recommended to me once so I bought a bottle to try and haven't got round to opening it yet. I'll try to keep this short and to the point, but I never manage to do that and it's more likely to be just as long and rambling as all my other reviews. We'd better crack on.


Spirit review no.5 - Millonario Aniversario Reverva 10 yo Peruvian Rum

 It's the second of December and that means rum sample number two from my thus far delicious advent calendar. This one' from Peru of all places. Who knew they made rum in Peru? Not me. I'll try to keep this brief. There are still 23 to go after this and I don't want to burn out. Here we go...

Spirit review no.4 - Mount Gay XO Reserve Barbados Rum

 Hello! It's the first day of December which means the countdown to Christmas has begun. The countdown to Christmas did not begin in November no matter how much you wanted it to, sorry. I decided to buy an advent calendar this year and ended up with one made of decent rum. I just got done investigating the first one, so here are my thoughts.

Whisky review no. 21 - Eiktyrne Sid og Vid Bloodtub Finished Norwegian Whisky

 Good morrow gentlemen, and what a fine morrow it might be. Good morrow also to my old friend Mr. Tiffen's wife Mrs. Tiffen who, although not a gentleman, still has the wherewithal to withstand the power of my reviews without suffering any ill effects. I'm trying to actually get some reviewing done now as I keep promising. Let's see how long this one takes. Eiketyrne Sid og Vid, let's go!

Whisky review no. 20 - The Singleton of Dufftown Spey Cascade Scotch

Well it's about bloody time! I started this ages ago and finally decided to finish it. This is what the little intro bit was going to say: "Greetings. I've started another whisky review at last. Hopefully I'll finish it fairly soon and not let it get to a full year between posts again. That would be a disaster. Apologies if it did get to a year. You should read this one anyway, it'll help detox your aura or something." Ha! David, you lazy swine. Get it sorted.

Whisky review no. 19 - Ardbeg Uigeadail

Good morning. Or evening. Or afternoon I suppose. Possibly good night if that happens to be the case. I've finally got round to another whisky review. This time it's Ardbeg Uigeadail, a very pleasant whisky from Islay that I've had kicking around for quite a while. Let's get into it.

Whisky review no. 18 - Sainsbury's Blended Scotch

Looks like I didn't do the regular indtoductory paragraph. That's a bit of a shame. Thanks goodness for the edit function. I can't have my reviews failing to conform to the regular format or people will get confused. Anyway, here it is...
