NEW ARRIVALS

We just took delivery of Texas's very first whisky. Called Baby Blue and distilled in Waco, Texas by Balcones Distilling, it uses only Hopi blue corn, so it's not a bourbon. The result is a fresh, young and complex dram!
We've also taken in Stanahan's Colorado Whiskey for the first time.

And a couple of the new Glendronach releases which I was going to hold over for our new list - the 14yo Virgin Oak Finish and the 20yo Tawny Port Finish 171010

Oh, and Jim Murray's World Whisky of the Year for 2011, Ballantine's 17yo Blend - we used to hear a lot about the geese who guarded the bonded warehouses at Dumbarton. Are they still there? I'm sure I had a tie celebrating the geese!
