    That's f***g amazing Sertug, what a great experience & what a great sharing of your journey there (you did play well the brand ambassador outside, btw ! 👍), and you deserved it as YOU are indeed the archetypal "Whisky Enthusiast". I'm so glad for you that you get to have this rare occasion to touch whisky production & have some privileged whisky tastings, starting by the new make, and also have a cask with your name on it, well done, buddy ! 🔥😍👏I loved every minute of it & was sad when the report ended, I wanted to see more (& yes I regret not to have participated to this but relieved to learn here that it"ll be done again in the future) and believe me this is not often...I know we did exchange already in private about it, but looking forward to hear your thoughts about that 50 yo...Btw, for the record, your report goes straight to my channel's Playlist "Scotch Whisky & Tourism" where people can see other distilleries visits & familiar (OG's or not) faces...Cheers ! 🥃

      Man these comments are making my day, thank you! My favourite thing to do before I started the channel is to pick up a dram of the review and watch the videos together. I still do it but I also love shooting as well :) Glad you liked it, have a great weekend 🥃

    Congratulations! So happy for you to have had this experience! You're allowed to be bias, we all have our favorites anyway. Thats part of what makes sharing a dram fun, seeing what others pick up and everyone having their personal likes. I loved the videos of the time there, its always so cool to get a look inside these distilleries. Perhaps stick to the reviewing and leave finding slogans to the experts! LOL!!! Cheers mate!

    Amazing video looked like an amazing time. I have the organic contrasts bottle and its great think i will replace it with virgin oak version when its finished.

    Dream days Sertug !! very interesting (no views of chill filtration?)
    Benromach is still my Oswa best distillery
    It could only be better when G&M will decide to produce at higher ABV
    Cheers 🥃

    • @thewhiskyenthusiast
      @thewhiskyenthusiast  2 месяца назад +1

      Absolutely dream days 😃 Well you probably know my views on chill filtering in general. With Benromach, amidst all the excitement and my very specific weird questions, I have forgotten to ask directly 'are the core range chill filtered?' I will be reaching out and learning about it so I'll edit this answer later on but as far as I know they're lightly barrier filtered rather than chill filtered. I can also test it by adding some water :)
      Regarding the abv, I did mention that and they said ' we know we know' so maybe we will see the 46% core range but at least the Contrasts are fully craft.
      Thanks for watching, cheers
