- Epic Blind Tasting - 8 Drams!!! Part 2
David very kindly sent us a pack of 8 samples to try blind! We did make the effort to try them all at once but it took a quite a while so we've split it up in to a two-parter.

Dram 2 - Ardnamruchan Madeira Hogshead

"it's dusty as well" -like my great grandma cupboard🧟♀
I do love how the more pissed you become, the more gibberish you talk 🤣🤣 it's like if a daffodil was a fruit 😂😂
Our inhibitions are not clouding our weirdness 🤣 🤣
Oh girls.........sniffing glue, having fun and getting liked for it! Smoooooth........Far away daffodils.......You always nail it. Comes so natural. Real art.
Art, why thank you 💅💅
That was brilliant, matey bubble bath and daffodils, love the videos, glad you enjoyed the drams that I sent and that some surprised you 😉😊🥃🥃
So glad you enjoyed :D!!! Thank you so much for sending the samples so kind of you :)
@@TheGrailTastings you are very welcome 😊🥃
I haven't thought about matey bubble bath since the 90s, thanks for the nostalgia
Great reveal and very interesting flight.. As per usual a new descriptor every time. Matey bubble bath.. brilliant Jen..
thanks for watching :D!!
So entertaining as always! I picked up a Glen Scotia Callander Cask at auction and can’t wait to try it!!! I wish you all had done a video of that 🤩
Aww this one is so so good!!! Let us know what you reckon to it!
Love this channel
Thank you :D!!!
Going to propose instead of slaintè, we go with the CC suggestion of "its lunch". Love a good food pairing anyhow.
Not sure how you went through all 8 in one sitting, my day might end up being a wash even with small sips at that rate
Edit: thank god y'all two hesitate at some of the Bunna batch names, too
This was at the end of the day thankfully 🤣 definitely a challenge even having wee sips!!
I'm 'bout to be watchin' ya, - just a sec-lemme just pull up my socks🧦
😜 Very much .
Above you've transposed the UR in ArdnamURchan, and I think you mean Mannochmore rather than Monochmore (almost monochrome?😉). Fantastic range, big, big thanks to David.👍 You were right to split the 8 into 2 lots, and not meant as a criticism of David but maybe better if he'd split his drams info. into 2 lots as well so they could be announced/disclosed separately, as it becomes difficult to remember back to the earlier set.
I had a small taste of the Ardnamurchan Madeira hogshead cask strength at a local shop a few weeks back and really enjoyed its zingy intensity and flavours, but alas don't have any notes to describe. Looking forward to opening it in due course.
Greetings from Los Angeles. Just checking. Probably a question you frequently get. Are you still posting? In any case, I wish you both well.
Eight drams in a row seems a bit too much. I am pretty dizzy...
I have to rewatch these two videos.
So, Deanston was the aftershave, wasn't it?
Sounds like Deanston anyway. 🙂
As I said, I have to rewatch them...
It was quite a bit to get through but we struggled on 🤣🤣
@@TheGrailTastings
I was wrong!...
Bladnoch was the aftershavey one...
Many wine casks which you identified correctly again! 🙂
Don’t worry the Lakes is Scottish owned, adhere’s to our rules , is not far away from the Border, and is attempting to become the Macallan of England
Overhyped, overpriced and underwhelming? Macallan's not much of a goal to aspire to.
@@bdwilcox wonder which of those they aspire to.
Good... good... good... and good luck. They'll need to build up an impeccable reputation over decades, built on the quality of their sherry casks rather than their spirit, before they have the luxury to mail it in and ride those coattails through a whisky boom on mediocre spirit and cringey advertising.
