A lot of people sleep on Single Grain Scotch, which is a real shame, IMHO. I got into grain via Compass Box Hedonism, which is a blended grain, but that opened me up to trying others. Many years ago I was in the right place at the right time, when Julio's Liquors happened to get a couple of bottles of a Clan Denny 50 year old North British Single Grain.

The price was shockingly low, half what 25 year old single malts were going for, so I snapped one up on the spot. It was fantastic, and when I later got into auctions I started hunting other Clan Denny bottles, and have since branches out into other independent bottlers.

I'm still picking up Clan Denny though, and this time I added a 30 year Garnheath 1975, a 40 year Girvan 1965, a 35 year Cambus 1975, and a 44 year Invergordon 1966.

I also picked up a few Cadenhead's bottlings - a 31 year Cameronbridge, a 34 year Girvan, a 40 year North British, a 26 year North British, and a 40 year Carsebridge.

As odds and ends I picked up a bottle of Cameron Brig (which is Cameronbridge) - I've been warned this might not be so good, a Signatory 14 year North British 2009, a Signatory 29 year North British 1991, a Muirhall Bond 15 year North British, and a Murray McDavid 16 year Invergordon.

The day we arrived in Inverness, on the way up to the Glenmorangie House, we did some sightseeing. We stopped by Loch Ness, and then we visited The Singleton at Glen Ord and took the tour.

After the tour I picked up three bottles in the shop - The Singleton at Glen Ord Distillery Exclusive and the 2024 Special Edition 'Autumn Walk' 14 year, and a Cameron Bridge 26 year 2022 Special Release Single Grain.

A couple of auction boxes arrived this week.

First up, from Unicorn Auctions, two High West Distillery expressions - a Bottled in Bond Straight Rye and a rum cask finished bourbon. I'm a sucker for rum finishes.

And six from Scotch Whisky Auctions. Three Compass Box Whisky expressions - two vintages of Hedonism to fill in gaps in my lineup, and the Great King Street Experimental Batch 00-V4. (Still seeking TR-06). A Scotch Malt Whisky Society Glenmorangie 125.80. Amrut Single Cask Single Grain Indian Whisky. And a Clan Denny 29 year old Cameronbridge Single Grain.
