What it misses out on in romance, it gains in authenticity &#8211; plus it&#8217;s a unit full of whisky, which helps.<\/p>\n<p>Two of our party had previously gone to a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.woodrowswhisky.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Woodrow&#8217;s<\/a> tasting at the excellent <a href=\"https:\/\/corkandcask.co.uk\/product-category\/spirits\/whisky\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Cork &#038; Cask<\/a> in Edinburgh (NB a few of the bottles we tried at this tasting are now available at the shop), and struck up a conversation with the owner. Maybe a couple of drams had been had, but he very kindly agreed to arrange a private tasting for our <a href=\"http:\/\/sswc.org.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Southside Whisky Club<\/a> <span style=\"font-size:12px;\"> | website no longer updated, major tastings are posted here now.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>A few months later and we&#8217;d arranged a trip to Jane Street in Leith to a sample a few of their bottlings. Little did we know, it would be one of the most fun tastings we&#8217;ve had the pleasure of being at. It&#8217;s a small industrial unit, but chock full of racked casks. If I&#8217;m remembering rightly, this is more of a &#8216;finishing zone&#8217;, where casks are kept shortly before bottling or evaluated upon purchase. Other casks owned by the company live in warehouses around the country. By the way, everything I&#8217;m saying here is true to the best of my recollection and I checked it was OK to post publicly &#8211; just accept there may be a few (tipsy) errors.<\/p>\n<p>As we arrived, we were shown around a table with a set of 6 glasses and a bottle of water each, oatcakes in the middle and 5 Woodrow&#8217;s bottles to be sampled. Here is the line-up as was presented:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.meiotic.co.uk\/my\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/IMG_20240217_144207.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-PL5savu4\" data-rl_title=\"Woodrow&#039;s Tasting - 2024-02-17\" data-rl_caption=\"Woodrow&#039;s Tasting - 2024-02-17\" title=\"Woodrow&#039;s Tasting - 2024-02-17\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.meiotic.co.uk\/my\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/IMG_20240217_144207-840x630.jpg\" alt=\"Woodrow&#039;s Tasting - 2024-02-17\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-3825\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.meiotic.co.uk\/my\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/IMG_20240217_144207-840x630.jpg 840w, http:\/\/www.meiotic.co.uk\/my\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/IMG_20240217_144207-765x574.jpg 765w, http:\/\/www.meiotic.co.uk\/my\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/IMG_20240217_144207-768x576.jpg 768w, http:\/\/www.meiotic.co.uk\/my\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/IMG_20240217_144207-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, http:\/\/www.meiotic.co.uk\/my\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/IMG_20240217_144207-285x214.jpg 285w, http:\/\/www.meiotic.co.uk\/my\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/IMG_20240217_144207.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>But as you&#8217;ll see from the notes below, it ended up being even more than that, after some cask-sampling was thrown into the mix. We really were in the heart of the operation, sharing their working space (and toilet!) and sampling whisky amongst the casks and bottling machines. Woody and Megan were slightly apologetic about what they saw as a haphazard tasting arrangement, but of course, as a group of whisky enthusiasts, this is exactly the environment we love. After we explored the space, we settled down to taste the first three bottles in the above photo&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><strong>1) <a href=\"https:\/\/www.whiskybase.com\/whiskies\/whisky\/248692\/blended-malt-scotch-whisky-warehouse-blend-wroe\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Blended Malt<\/a> | 50%<\/strong><br \/>\n<em>Glen Ord, tea-spooned Highland Park, tea-spooned Glen Scotia, Glen Elgin<\/em><br \/>\nNotes: Sweet, lemons, cheesecake<\/p>\n<p><strong>2) <a href=\"https:\/\/www.whiskybase.com\/whiskies\/whisky\/248691\/girvan-1993-wroe\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Girvan 30yo<\/a> | 53.7%<\/strong><br \/>\n<em>Refill Hogshead (whole life)<\/em><br \/>\nNotes: Toffee popcorn, super sweet but a very odd, sour cumin finish at times &#8211; battery acid?
