Quite a day yesterday. First a shoot for a Dutch television program, and it was also the first day of the Blind Tasting Competition. Spoiler alert: I did not do well...
The Saladin maltings at Benrinnes Distillery made for an eerie experience. The kind of stuff you might see in horror movies, where you expect some slasher type to jump out of a dark corner. It was like a Doomsday decor.
Not a crowdpleaser but a bold choice by the Whisky Weekend Twente folks. I'm quite happy they picked this Benrinnes and went down a road less traveled.
Adelphi has released a series of heavily-sherried Benrinnes, all from 2006, all received rather well. This edition was released to commemorate the centenary of the RAF Benevolent Fund.
