One Woman’s World of Whisky

What better way to mark International Bagpipe Day than with a dram from Cadenheads - a.15 year old Royal Brackla. Sláinte!

A swift delivery from Spirit of Birmingham - their first single malt. 48% ABV and matured for 3 years and 2 months, in a virgin Staffordshire oak cask. Amazing packaging too!

Time to try something new this Whisky Wednesday from The Cairn Distillery.

Not my photos but had to share the amazing work of this topper on Perton - for Midlands Air Ambulance Charity during their Wear It Red campaign.

Visited the Everards Brewery in Leicestershire last week. Great tour with plenty of time to sample their beer - and bought a few home as well. Well worth a visit.
