Blending these two #SpeyWhisky to create a peated port!
I need another bottle of Tenne!
#SpeysideDistillery
#BackForTheWhisky
Thursday dram, I forget how really good the #SpeysideDistillery Fumare CS is.
#BackForTheWhisky
Final thoughts:
Speyside Distillery seems to offer up a great level of consistency in it's drams, which in a world of innovation and experimentation is hugely appreciated. The Trutina and Fumare are always a delight and completely underrated. Awesome tasting. Thanks all!!
#SpeysideDistillery 8/8
Fumare CS continued:
๐
: Palate: thick, sweet, lemony, smoky. Leaves a lovely numbness on the lips. Adding water, thickens this a little on mouthfeel, and brings out more baking spice notes
esp ginger, like Jamaican ginger cake. Yummy.
#SpeysideDistillery 7/8
Fumare CS:
๐: Again, having had this before, the nose on the Fumare is like coming home to a comfy sofa, and being wrapped up in a favourite blanket. Light smoke, avgas,
a little coconut, lightly burnt toast, white chocolate, more citrus again.
#SpeysideDistillery 6/8
Trutina CS continued:
๐
: sweet, big apples and pears, with a honey dew melon and citrus follow up. A little dry heat, and with a mouth hold, some lactic feel kicking in.
With water, that wine feel grows, then turns back apple-y again. Even at 59.4%, I prefer neat.
#Speysidedistillery 5/8
Third up:
Trutina CS
๐: I have had this before, and even though barely any colour, it holds a great nose; lemon, buttery pastry, still with that Patisserie Valerie lemon tart.
Apple again. With water almost opens up a light white wine nose.
#speysidedistillery 4/8
Next:
12 yr old:
๐: a little muted compared to CC, but very similar nose. Back of hand adds a little chocolate-y note.
๐
: thin, marmalade, tiny bit of heat, apples, marzipan, malted milk biscuit. Although nice, this shows that an age statement not always better than NAS.
#speysidedistillery 3/8
First up:
Chairman's Choice, 40%abv
Nose: sweet, floral, ripe banana, a little furniture polish at back of nose, red apples.
Palate: apple, toffee, like caramel apple pie, a little heat, a little almond. Not bad for a 40% abv

A bit late to the party, due to double booking myself, but here is a thread for my tasting notes for the #SpeysideDistillery tasting with @thewhiskywire.bsky.social .
I have been lucky enough to try some of these before and they continue to be an underrated star of the world of whisky. 1/8
Howdy @thewhiskywire.bsky.social . Did you find out which batch the Fumare was, in this week's #SpeysideDistillery?
Cheers
...along with getting reacquainted with cask strength variants of their SPEY Trutina and SPEY Fumare bottlings. Pure dramming class in a glass!

Thank you to Speyside Distillery and @thewhiskywire.bsky.social for a fantastic tasting. They were all superb, but I think the orange popping candy and cherry Tangfastic notes of the 12YO make that the dram of the night for me #SpeysideDistillery #Scotch #Whisky

A massive thank you to #SpeysideDistillery and Steve @thewhiskywire.bsky.social for another great whisky lineup.
Thank You ๐
The two cask strength bottlings stole the show for me, with the Fumare being the real stand out
Huge thanks as always to Steve @thewhiskywire.bsky.social for organising and to Speyside Distillery for supplying a range of delightful drams
#Speysidedistillery
Definitely still love the Fumare, and the cask strength just makes it even better. Wasn't bowled over by the two at 40%, though. #SpeysideDistillery
The Spey Fumare Cask Strength is the winner for me.
I really wanted to enjoy the Spey 12 year old, but it needs a touch more ABV. It has a lot of potential.
#SpeysideDistillery
Fumare. Palate (Cont.): For the ABV this is incredibly smooth, and Iโm loving the BBQ notes alongside a dark chocolate orange note that emerges at the finish @thewhiskywire.bsky.social #SpeysideDistillery #Scotch #Whisky
Many thanks to @SpeySingleMalt @TheWhiskyWire (@thewhiskywire.bsky.social) for a fantastic @TweetTastings!
