Now, I know that Spring is still a couple of months away, but I am a keen lover of sweet drinks from time to time, especially fruity beers or even sweet-tasting whiskies.

The Glenallachie Virtual Whisky Festival Review
It’s Wednesday once again, and I am back today for another exciting whisky post on a tremendous Virtual Whisky Festival, I took part in two weeks ago.
As a lot of my followers will already know, I have a huge passion for whisky and this really started when me and Isobel got together, her father passed all the knowledge and passion onto me!
I know you can buy your standard whiskies from supermarkets such as Jack Daniels, The Famous Grouse and Bell’s!
