We have a new range of malt whiskies to add to the existing top shelf. These are 100 proof (57% abv) and range from the peaty (Staoisha) to the smoother Speyside styles.

They can be taken neat, or with water or over ice. Being unchillfiltered, cold water and ice can bring a haziness to the drink, matched by the laziness in your head of the strong liquor.

Come on down and give them a try. Good with a half of cask ale.

Over the years, Helen has had a small but loyal following for her home-made scones. Whilst she's been poorly, we've not had any on offer. So I've been to Helen's Scone School, and with the help of our dog-eared BeRo book, I've made a batch to start us off again. Cheese or Fruit, which would you choose?
