I love returning to a dram I haven't had in a while. I'd forgotten just how fruity and delicious this Deanston is. Vanilla, malty sweetness on the nose. Delicious waxy fruitiness on the tongue: peaches, pears, citrusy and finishes with a gentle tingly spice.
A terrible time for those who hate sport, with the Six Nations and the Olympics in full swing. Watching the "Women's Big Air" at the moment, and commentators seem to be talking a different language - I have no idea what they are talking about, but I love their enthusiasm.
Apparently, there's some sporting event in California later, featuring a cast of thousands wearing body armour and motorcycle helmets. But I'm about to watch proper football in a moment, the Scottish Cup, Stenhousemuir and Falkirk
