Tonight’s drams start with the SMWS Lemon Meringue and Blueberry Tang. And it tastes just like the description - or as I’d call it ‘a pudding in a glass’! Light, floral, lemon meringue pie and vanilla ice cream.
13 years old and 59.2% ABV - and a Balmenach according to the ‘not so secret’ code.

Tropical fruit Balmenach 26, a Xmas present from my son. Arran is lemon sherbet, candied peel and sultanas. I found Macaloneys in Canada a couple of years ago, this one uses the same peat as Westland. Ashy smoke, charred peach & runny honey, wonderful! #whiskey #macaloneys #Arran #Balmenach

I've got it on good authority that this Glenlaird bottling is from the Balmenach distillery.
Can anyone confirm from a position of knowledge?

Since I haven’t been buying many bottles recently it’s time to raid the stash. I had a bottle of this Balmenach around the time it was released and bought a back up shortly after. A lovely vibrant and fruity dram.
