The Wemyss line up is now all agreed for their tasting on 29th Sep. We will start with a Gin & Ginger ale using their new spiced gin - you know we like to be different. The whisky tasting will be Hive 12, Strawberry Granache (Glen Scotia 1991), Driftwood (Bunnahbhain 1997), Lemon Sorbet (Cragganmore 1989) and Fresh Fruit Sorbet (Clynelish 1997). I have been lucky enough to try all these whiskies and they are absolute crackers.
