Drinking through the UK ......

Just returned from a great two weeks in Scotland, 5 distillery tours and a cooperage visit. Capped it off with 18 @ St Andrews. Mother nature cooperated throughout, less than two days of rain !

A few pics to share .......... 1 rare bottle of Glenlevit, if you have 30k laying around it can be yours. The cask from Tomatin is 50 years old, you'll have to add a few more zeros for that one ! Ahhhh, the tasting room @ Aberlour, I saw to it that the 'Angles didn't get their share' !

Enjoyed your pictures and a nice way to visit the motherland.

Nice pics. That sounds like a very cool vacation. Aberlour is one of my favorite's. Did you make it to Macallan?

No, Oban (bought a bottle of their limited edition, 6000 bottles at the distillery), Tomatin, Glenfarclas (love their 15 year old), the Glenlevit and Aberlour.

I only purchased whisky that cannot be bought here in the states.

checked off another item on my bucket list .........standing atop the Swilcan bridge on the 18th @ St Andrews.

The jealousy demon has taken a hold of me!

Nice pictures Dave. Looks like a great trip!!!!

Very cool, I'm a bit jealous too, I love Scotland - and a wee dram occasionally as well.

Sounds like a great trip. Which was higher....... your score at St. Andrews or your sporting clays? ;)

LOL Glenn, no clays on this trip !

Dave, outstanding trip and photos. That's on my bucket list... St. Andrew's and plenty of fine adult beverages! I've got a bottle of the dalmore 18 that I'm itching to pop open. But to experience all that in Scotland would be amazing. Thanks for sharing!
