Another few bottles have been “smuggled” out of the warehouse to give a bit of Christmas choice to our UK customers.

These are all whiskies that I’ve tasted and really liked, but possibly without a big market in the UK, so I’ve just bottled 60 of each in 500ml bottles. The rest remains in the cask.

It’s a little bit early in my opinion, but when you get a dry sunny day near the end of November you have to take your chance to get the Christmas lights all up and on!

A lot of time is spent re-working casks to suit customers’ requirements. Speyside Cooperage provide us with great casks for finishing or full maturation, whether you want rum barrels, sherry hogsheads, bourbon barrels, white wine, Moscatel or ex Islay casks.

Once re-casked, the warehouse team takes the casks away and finds a home somewhere in the racks.

With the kids going back to school on Monday, Harry, our 13yo son has been brought in to help a bit today. He’s currently sorting a box of miniatures into the lucky dip buckets.

I managed to catch the 10 bottles of 24yo Macallan before they ended up in one of the buckets! Unfortunately none of you are going to be that lucky.

96 parcels all loaded up on UPS a few minutes ago. A busy day of packing over, with just a few orders from the last hour left to pack (the van couldn’t carry any more weight today!)

Thanks to everybody who placed an order. We hope you enjoy your whisky.

Messing about with the filters for a few minutes and thought you might like to see.

Our 25micron bag filter in the first photograph is the first stage of filtration. It catches the large chunks of wood, bits of bung and long stringy hessian that is used as a bung cloth.

We’ve just sieved this to show photos 2 and 3 where it gets increasingly fine, like a black charcoal dust. The particles can be so small that you don’t see them until the whisky settles for a few days.

Photo 4 shows a used 0.8micron sheet filter. The liquid passes along the face of these and is squeezed through, hopefully leaving the sediment (in this case grape residue from a sherried whisky) behind. I’ve just scored my finger over it so you can see that it was all white/cream to begin with.

A few photos that wouldn’t post at the same time as yesterday’s video clip. Foxy appears to have moved on today so somebody else will have the pleasure of his company.

New bottling head day…

A few of our bottling heads were in need of a little TLC, filling slower than the others and slowing the whole process down. Today, with a changeover on both lines we should be good as new and the old ones can be sent back to be refurbished and kept as spares.

A whisky drinking bowl in Warehouse 8 yesterday.

This is a sign that the cask(s) above on pallets have been leaking. This one was at ground level, so the leak could have been one or more of at least 7 casks above it. Normally, if they’re above ground they can result in the forklift driver getting soaked when they apply backwards tilt on the forks. I was doused in whisky on Tuesday and it is not as fun as it sounds.

Claustrophobic? There are worse places to be stuck.

Some help might be needed here…

The trickiest thing about having good whisky is deciding whether it’s going to get better (should I wait) and whether the demand is out there.

As a visitor last week said, it’s much easier when a sample stands out as bad, or when you’re just dealing with multiple samples from the same distillery. Comparing a Ben Nevis with a Caol Ila with a Benrinnes is difficult.

A couple of photos that hopefully capture the difference between a fresh bourbon barrel matured cask and a Rivesaltes wine matured cask. Wine and sherry casks are often much murkier when the sample is drawn straight from the cask, with residue from grapes causing probably our single biggest filtration issue when it comes to bottling. This residue is so fine that it is often only visible after resting for a long time.

The second bottling of Tobermory (30yo, cask number 240/1995) will be available for £112 in a few weeks when labels arrive. It is cask strength 44.4%, with the lower strength explaining most of the price difference compared to the 31yo bottling (£125).

The second picture shows the 31yo on the left and the 30yo on the right (slightly lighter in colour)

The 31yo Tobermory from last week making it into the bottles now. 53.5% - natural cask strength, expecting around 220 x 70cl bottles.

Just prior to the previously posted photograph, I roped Jane into recording the Tobermory casks being opened for the first time. She managed fairly well despite the face tracking on the gimbal deciding to move the camera off elsewhere at the critical point of tasting!

We’ve been talking about doing a few more videos and clips for social media, so we thought that it was time to start. Next time, I’ll use a microphone!

Available today. Two 10 year old bourbon barrels from Lochranza Distillery (one unpeated, one lightly peated) and one 32 year old Glen Moray. Both of the Arrans are £56 and the Glen Moray is £150.

Absolutely mesmerising as always when a walking floor arrives to deliver pallets of casks. This time I had a wee look underneath to watch the sets of hydraulic rams at work, pushing the floor along. Didn’t take a video because they might like it kept a secret!

Properly good engineering, manufactured at Carntyne’s own workshop in Glasgow.

This was the trailer’s first use, fresh from the workshop, so great care was taken not to scratch it, but no doubt it won’t be long until it has a few.

For those of you all over the world who haven't visited or can't visit, here is what our little corner of Scotland looks like. Our warehouses are nestled on the edge of the village of Creetown, and you couldn't wish for a nicer outlook. The video starts out looking Northeast, with Cairnsmore of Fleet the large hill/small mountain a mile or so behind us. In the opposite direction, the water to our southwest is the mouth of the River Cree, opening into Wigtown Bay, with Wigtown just on the other side.
I've just borrowed the drone and this is only my second attempt at flying it, so please forgive the occasional jerky movement.

Back to it again this morning making sure one of our next planned bottlings is up to standard. Despite the early hour for alcohol consumption, this one gets a thumbs up.

Casks are being filled as I type this post, so the office should have some fill details from tomorrow. The casks are each weighed empty and then filled before being weighed again. Then they’ll be barcoded and moved into our racks for maturation.

We’ve been looking forward to this day - a tanker of spirit from Linkwood Distillery has just arrived and been pumped into our holding tank. Available now at £6.49 per litre of alcohol. Available in casks or to be set aside in IBCs to fill into your own casks.

This works out at around £824 per 200 litre bourbon barrel filled at 63.5%.

After a lovely couple of weeks off work, we’re all back in on Monday, ready for the challenges of another year. Hopefully we’ll see some of you this year and will be able to get started building the final (we hope) project of a new visitor centre with offices. Here are a couple of photographs looking down over the top of our warehouses towards Wigtown Bay.

When surrounded by casks, there are always a few that catch your eyes. Old stencils, cooperage marks, whiskies from distilleries long gone.

The first picture shows cooperage plates from 1976, 1988 and now whisky from 2016 in it. I guess there was probably whisky in it from around 2002 as well, and possibly before 1976.

The second picture is just a whisky that we always notice to and check for leaks when we see them.

The third is a row of 1988 Littlemill casks.

Treasure, if you know where to find it!

For everybody with romantic images in their head, thinking about how amazing it must be working in a whisky warehouse all the time, let me tell you with absolute authority that there is nothing at all fun about your first mouthful of thick cobwebs or the day. The spiders seem to particularly love building across the racking walkways at face height.

Today was spent scanning barcodes in warehouse 1. There are just under 4000 casks in here, and it’s just about the most peaceful place to be on site here in Creetown. The other warehouses are full of banging and clanging of forklifts, cages and bung extractors, but most of the casks in here have been here for the longest and tend to be moved a bit less. I spent an enjoyable day walking about 8km up and down around 900km of racking walkways . The only noise was the beep of the scanner. With a bit of luck, this will make the December scan a bit easier.

Day 3 of The Great Racking Build of 2024 has just begun. Nearly 2 full bays up (704 barrels of storage), 8 more bays to go on this side and rather a lot of work bolting the angle iron together. Hopefully we’ll have some functional bays early next week.

One of yesterday’s deliveries was a load of rum, delivered in a sparkling new Carntyne Transport trailer with a one year old unit pulling it. My logic is that if he has been given the new equipment he must be a decent driver, and this was confirmed by the way he whirled round and reversed into warehouse 8 in around 20 seconds with no adjustments.

They are still the best looking wagons around when they’re new.

A fun morning in Creetown today with a group of 21 fine folks in from Sweden. After a tour and a warehouse tasting of their casks, they’re on their way back for a short recovery before a round of golf tomorrow before visiting Arran. Where better to sample your whisky than with a backdrop of a million litres of Scotch?

Precious cargo moving between the warehouses this afternoon. Certainly a quicker and safer way than on the end of the forklift forks. 26 casks onboard and 5 minutes from warehouse to warehouse.

Introducing the biggest new thing in floor tiles - used whisky filter plates. For a long lasting release of your favourite alcoholic vapour into your living room. Enjoy the feeling of a wet sandy beach where the watery sand is actually peaty wood char. Unfortunately we cannot be responsible for damage to your wooden floorboards underneath.

Errr, I think there might be an issue with this cask delivery…See if you can spot it.

Cask arrivals from this morning which have been dipped and had samples drawn for the customer before being stowed on temporary wooden stows. New steel racks are due any day now (yesterday!) and should be up in a few weeks. Hopefully they come soon because we will be out of space by the time they’re built.

We’re all back today after a relaxing couple of weeks off before the Christmas (yes I said it in August) rush begins. Today’s job- getting our new filter press into operation. Initially with just 24 filter plates, it might be going up to 40 plates filtering at 1.5microns as soon as we establish what works best.

We’re filling a nice range of empty casks today with Lingdarroch peated new make spirit.

We have PX, Moscatel, Ruby Port, fernando di Castilla PX, red wine (unknown) x 3 and a Rioja cask.

All have been used for whisky once but only for a short period so should have a good influence on the spirit.

We’re not the only ones making the most of the good weather today. Michael and Kevin were out continuing the landscaping efforts when they spotted this little mink hunting for rabbits inside warehouse number 9. No sign of all the babies like we had last year but it was interesting to note that she was using our warehouse vents to get in and out of the building.

Erica is seen here modelling some new photos and signs we’ve just put up as part of this year’s plan to start sprucing up the outside of our premises. For the last 10 years the focus has been on inside, so it is long overdue that we try to improve the outside.

9yo Single Malts from Mannochmore and Glenlossie just arrived today, to join last week’s Linkwood, Glen Elgin, Teaninich, and Dailuaine. £28 per litre of alcohol means that a cask containing 190 litres at a strength of 59%, 112.1 l/alc costs £3138. We’re regauging them now so that we can absorb the first 9 years of evaporation or losses and make it a bit less risky for any buyer.

Choose a red wine cask or a sherry cask and finish them for a year or two, or leave them to bottle at 15-18 years old.

Sometimes there is a trade-off when buying casks. If you buy first fill bourbon hogsheads remade from smaller bourbon barrels, the whisky might be better quality, but the cask is newly constructed and therefore untested. We’ve found today and in the past that better flavour usually corresponds with considerably less liquid left in the cask unfortunately. The same is true with first fill sherry hogsheads or newly constructed seasoned sherry hogsheads which may crack and leak, compared to old tried and tested casks.

A week after we started bringing casks into our new warehouse 8 and we now have 3024 barrels in the corner. There are a few hundred spaces left in the racks in warehouses 1-7, so we’ll soon be starting to build new racks in warehouse 9. Then what? Maybe a visitor’s centre.

30 years ago Neil Cluckie brought deliveries in and out of Bladnoch Distillery for my dad, always with a red, white and blue lorry, always with Bonnie Gallowa’ written across the front of it.

It’s great that the first deliveries to our new warehouses 8 & 9 are being made by Neil’s sons Aaron and Deryck.

Bonnie Gallowa’ it is (albeit spoken with my Northern Irish accent!)

Those who have visited us in the past will know that we have a large site that is industrial in appearance. Since we purchased the site in 2014, the focus has been on constantly building and making it fit for purpose as a warehousing site.

The next 12 months however have been earmarked for some intensive landscaping. We’ve been digging a pond in the lower yard (below the new warehouses) in the past week, with the base more or less finished today. The aim is to make the place a whole lot greener and more welcoming for visitors.

As with everything we do, it’ll probably be a long project, so some of you will just have to visit multiple times to watch the progress.

Not strictly whisky related but part of the running of a secure site. I’m sure some of you will feel my pain when you see these photos- over 1000m of cat 6 cable has been installed and now 15 rj45 connectors crimped on with a 22 to go, mostly while working 10 metres in the air on a cherry picker. Thankfully it has stopped raining!

We haven’t received HMRC approval yet but the good news is that the new warehouses make an excellent area for rollerblading.

Labels for the new Bruichladdich bottling arrived this morning and were applied today. There are a limited number of bottles, which will be restricted to one bottle per person.

Rather than put this on our online shop and have a lot of unhappy people who miss out, we would like you to email me at martin@whiskybroker.co.uk, using the subject “Bruichladdich”. Please email before 5pm UK time tomorrow with your name and I will select randomly from those names on Friday morning and will email back to inform you if we are able to allocate a bottle to you.

Bottles will only be available for the UK market (some have been pre-allocated separately to trade customers in Europe). No more than one bottle may be allocated per person or per address.

When I’ve informed you that we are reserving a bottle for you, we’ll add the product to our online shop for you to complete the purchase, using the same email address as you’ve reserved the bottle from. Anybody attempting to order without having been told that there is a bottle reserved will have their order cancelled. Cancelling orders is a pain for us because the bank and PayPal keep their fees, so please don’t order if you haven’t had a confirmation.

This is all a bit of a faff and we’ll try not to make a habit of it, but there does appear to be unprecedented demand for this bottling.
