The fragmentary but intriguing ruins of Saddell Abbey, on the east coast of the Kintyre peninsula north of Campbeltown. It was founded in 1140 and is home to a truly remarkable collection of late medieval grave slabs and effigies.

At the head of a deep loch sheltered by Davaar Island and surrounding hills lies Campbeltown, one of the largest towns in Argyll, complete with its busy harbour. Campbeltown is a considerable distance from other centres of population, but well worth the effort it takes to get to.

A few weeks ago my nephew and I took a sailing dash to #Campbeltown where we went to the #Springbank shop and had a Glengyle distillery tour. The highlight of the trip was a "Cadenhead’s Creation – Blending Session", one where you can fancy yourself as a master blender 😂

It costs £100 which may sound a lot but for that you come away with a unique whisky blend of your own making (cask strength), emblazoned with your own label. During the session you have eight 40ml samples to taste and mix (and finish) as well as an etched copita glass (and a Glencairn if you ask nicely), notebook, certificate and other bits and pieces. It's also an absolute hoot!

I would encourage anyone who has the chance to get to Campbeltown to give this a go.

My nephew writes for the whisky blog "Dramface" and he recently recounted our experience.

The manager at my local #pub #Diggers is in charge of another just along the road - a bit more of a gastro pub, than a drinking den. Occasionally, he'll put on a "break even" bottle - this is the latest - a whisky I would never be able to afford otherwise. He's offering it at £25 a dram. The best retail price I can find is £2.5k for a bottle 🤯

I picked up this 20cl bottle of distillery exclusive at Springbank on a sailing trip to Campbeltown last year. There's still quite a lot left and I am really trying hard to like it. It's triple distilled and advocates of this say that it produces a smoother spirit. Sadly, I find it really harsh and raw.

Yeasty with some apple peel, slight toffee on the nose and a light dunnage, earthy funk. Some lemon and a touch of eucalyptus and pear mouthful, quite salty. Dry, woody spicy finish but to me lacking in cask influence. No age statement and a bit too much raw spirit taste for my liking. I'm glad I didn't buy a full bottle.

Hazelburn Distillery Exclusive, 57%, NAS, NC, NCF.
