Remote and impressive: Ardnamurchan Lighthouse, which has been standing near mainland Britain's most westerly point since it was built in 1849 by Alan Stevenson, one of the Stevenson dynasty of lighthouse engineers.

A weekend rammed with sport kicks off tonight with Scottish Championship Football, and tomorrow is 6 Nations Super Saturday, with all six teams playing and Scotland in with a shout of being tournament winners. Sunday and it's the Chinese Grand Prix.
Need to ca' canny tonight as friends are around tomorrow to watch the rugby, and it will be a long day! So, a couple of wee ones.
Cadenhead's Ardnamurchan 5, Oloroso Cask. NC, NCF, 58.1% ABV.
Packed with red fruit: sweet cherries, strawberries and red currants, and a touch of earthy dunnage. Rich, thick, and mouth-coating, mulled wine with cinnamon, cloves, and orange peel. Jammy with a slight savouriness. Despite its youth, it has incredible complexity and depth.

The Monster Midge, Artoe, Ardnamurchan.
Advent Dram #23
Cadenhead's Ardnamurchan 5, NC, NCF, 58.1% ABV
Wonderful sweet cherries, strawberries, red currants, and a touch of earthy dunnage. Rich, thick, and mouth-coating, mulled wine with cinnamon, cloves, orange peel, and more dark fruit. Jammy with a slight savouriness. Despite its youth and high ABV, there is no alcohol burn. It is beautifully smooth and quaffable. The cask must have been really active, as the depth of flavour and complexity is astonishing.
This is a real beauty.
