POURING SOME OUT FOR THE HOMIES


In the course of documenting my single malt scotch experiences, it was at this point that I had exhausted my current list, 25 at the time. I took a hiatus from posting until I had 10 new malts to discuss, eventually working my way up to 57 whiskys before (spoiler alert) calling it quits again. This page previously served as my homepage, an attempt to organize chronologically written posts that annoyingly appear online in reverse order. If you had previously bookmarked this page, it has since been updated and moved here.

In the spirit of repurposing previously useful things, I thought this might be an appropriate time to offer an 'in memoriam' of Scotland's dearly departed malt whisky distilleries:
