Merry Christmas! Christmas day is almost over, but I still wanted to share the Islay drams I enjoyed this evening together with some Islay chocolate. As hinted yesterday I moved from Port Ellen across the island to the Rhinns of Islay:
The whisky is the Kilchoman Batch Strength Islay single malt whisky, aged in re-charred red wine casks, oloroso sherry butts and bourbon barrels. First time I had this expression, I hope they will continue with it as I think it could become one of my regulars. The chocolate I’ve had before, every once in a while I treat myself to some Salty Sea Dog (can’t have it too often, as due to high blood pressure I try to keep my salt intake low. Christmas is one of the times I make an exception). Keeping with the Rhinns of Islay theme of today it is made with some Orsay Sea Salt.
That’s all for today, let’s see where my moods or whims will take me tomorrow.
