Are more ready to be bottled?

[Coneyhurst Blue]

The executive committee of 6 is recommending bottling casks 2 and 3 in addition to cask 1 which was bottled this afternoon.
When I say recommending what I actually mean 2 and 3 are being bottled tomorrow morning.
Trust us they are fantastic !

Do you have the PM I sent earlier - do you want me to take yours for courier to Norfolk ??
We might have a half bottle issue to deal with at home before shipping - find out in the morning.

[ClassicMercs]

Of those not yet ready - and please don't ask until late this year / same time next year - the Rum finish has real promise. Very young spirit with a nice nose.
We then left the tasting glass for an hour or so over dinner - wow - it really opened up with some air. There are some good drams but giving this another two years and we may have a winner.

Whoop whoop - I've got cask 2 as well as 1. I just hope S6PNJ has room in his boot to bring both down!

FG

[S6PNJ]

Room in my stomach car - hopefully yes. No problems, my courier charges are quite low at one bottle per 9 carried!

[Podie]

Whilst I'm sad to have missed this, at least it appears there is an option to do another later in the year!

If anyone is happy to part with a bottle for cold hard cash, then let me know

I have replied. If you could take them then that would be great.

[krallicious]

How many bottles are we getting from the 2nd and 3rd casks?

I'd be interested in being second in the queue,

[robuk]

As someone who dips in when I remember to this thread - always hopeful - is it possible to do a quick email circulate to all inital er 'investors' as would hate it for someone to miss off updates or the like as well as post on thread?

As always... on mine ARE THEY READY YET??

The share of cask 2 is 6 x 50cl bottles and 3 is 5 x 50cl, 1 x 20cl and 1 x 10cl, a consequence of smaller casks and greedy angels.

Drinking a wee talisker in anticipation.

If anyone with a run share wants a swap with a bottle of barrel 1, speak now or forever drink your gourgeous rum infused malt.

According to an informal tasting sesh this evening cask 1 goes down smoother than a penguin in velvet wetsuit. The verdict is it's sweet with a finish like a young Islay malt. That is all.
