We did the Burns Night thing in our house. Ignoring the protestations of not liking haggis, trying to sidestep racial slurs emanating from the swede/turnip debate, it was a political minefield.
Still, this bottle of Bruichladdich Rocks helped me through it. I normally like seriously peated whiskies, but Bruichladdich has a mellow intensity that makes it suitable for drinking all evening. And after I found a replacement supply in Sainsbury’s, it’s back on the tipple list.
Bruichladdich was one of the distilleries we visited while on Islay.
