Get well soon Ralfy, without your sense of smell and taste we are all lost like a blind person without its guide dog 😉(luckily there is braille on the new Arran bottles 😅)

Next time you have a cold, try some Schrobbelér herbal liqueur from The Netherlands. it is just 21% but it works a treat

Hey Ralfy, as for bottle maturation; in my holiday in Taiwan, I experienced a purely bottle aged spirit called Kaoliang, made from fermented gaolian (sorghum?). A bartender let me taste from his bottle, he kept it for 34 years. It is amazingly rich in taste. Reminded me of mezcal, grappa, had a good development and coffee notes in the finish. Apparently, companies also sell pre-aged Kaoliang, which they stored in China vessels or tanks. Just for your interest. You mentioned the Armagnac industry, and that Rye ages in a bottle well; so here seems to be another example of successfull maturation in a bottle. However, I did not taste the fresh stuff yet for comparison, but if I can, I let you know. Maybe on your location, you can also find a fresh bottle. It's quite cheap, here, around 20 to 25 GBP for a 700 ml bottle, just for reference. Cheers! Michael from Germany
