Waiting for dram #5 reveal.....
#BlindDrams #BTC60

#BTC60 Dram 5: Palate delivers creamy smoke, is there such a thing! Very drying delivering heafty PPM on the taste buds with a side serve of rich fruit and treacle sweetness. Truly a dram worthy of Arthur Brown #BlindDrams

S5: Wow, this is the stuff! Has to be a 5
#BlindDrams #BTC60

R5: some water adds a little sweetness to the nose, the palate gains a creamy texture and dark chocolate raspberries
Lovely dram, with or without water
#BlindDrams #BTC60

Dram 5 score - 4

Great winter dram, bit too powerful on the smoke to make it a fat five but still cracking.

#BlindDrams #BTC60

P5: rich and smoky; roast glazed smoked gammon, peppered smoked mackerel
#BlindDrams #BTC60

#BTC60 Dram 5: weathered teak in colour what has good beading which very slowly develops in to a myriad of slow thin legs. The Crazy World of Arthur Brown is upon us, Fire! Peat smoke, Spinks Arbroath Smokies, barbecued honey marinated spare ribs #BlindDrams

Dram 5 palate - hot, spicy, jammy & lots of rich smoke.

#BlindDrams #BTC60

N5: smoky and fishy; hot smoked salmon, smoked haddock, kippers
#BlindDrams #BTC60

Dram 5 nose - ooft, a smokey bacon punch in the face. Whiff of jam in the background, a pleasant sweetness.

#BlindDrams #BTC60

#BTC60 Dram 4: the only way is up and it’s a well deserved score of 4 #BlindDrams

5th and final dram in this month's #BlindDrams #BTC60 "Silent Groovy 60's Disco" with a mystery host
E5: dark gold, foil-covered chocolate coins

#BTC60 Dram 4: Palate has chocolate Medjool dates, spiced Christmas nuts, hot apple strudel all of which combines to deliver a lingering warm spiced finish which definitely suggests “ Cinnamon Girl” by Neil Young #BlindDrams

S4: A solid 4, good flavour, no sour notes and works well with water
#BlindDrams #BTC60

Dram 4 score - 4

Best one yet, a thick creamy delight.

#BlindDrams #BTC60

Better late than never! A wonderful visit from friends has put me about an hour behind but it's time for #btc60 #blinddrams as it's time for a groovy 60 silent disco apparently.

Dram 4 palate - malty, zesty & creamy. Bitter lemon & zesty/sour orange notes with a hint of vanilla.

#BlindDrams #BTC60

#BTC60 Dram 4: Rich gold in colour, small beads that deliver long thin legs. Nose: sweet cigar smoke in the distance with toffee apple and then a werthers original to follow #BlindDrams

P4: syrupy, dark and fruity; burnt apple pastries
#BlindDrams #BTC60

Dram 4 nose - this is a cup of milky sweet tea and a couple of custard cremes. That's it!

#BlindDrams #BTC60

4th dram in this month's #BlindDrams #BTC60 "Silent Groovy 60's Disco" with a mystery host
E4: dark gold, dark maple syrup
N4: Similar to #2, dusty pencil shavings and apple skins

#BTC60 Dram 3 a quick spin of the vinyl decks and where it stops is on a score of 3 #BlindDrams

S3: Much better than #1 and #2, I'll give this one a solid two
#BlindDrams #BTC60

Dram 3 score - 3

The pleasant sweetness elevates this one over dram 2, although a drop of water certainly required.

#BlindDrams #BTC60

#BTC60 Dram 3: Palate delivers a pepper spice that lingers but definitely still getting that “Sugar and spice” from the searchers. Mixed fruit with a touch of grated lemon zest brings up a Christmas mince pie finish #BlindDrams

P3: Thick and fruity; maple syrup, apple pancakes, toffee apples. Finish is quite spicy, with chilli poweder and ginger
R3: Water adds more fruit to the nose, but weakens the palate and adds saltiness
