Yeah.
48:48
Yeah.
48:49
Um, but, uh, we had great weather for the festival.
48:52
Um, and I, I think that, that this whiskey reflects the weather that, for our day because it was bright and fresh and, um, uh, it's got a, a lot of great notes to it.
49:05
Um, uh, talking about the weather and the tempest, uh, uh, Dorus Mor literally means the big door, the big gate, and it's one of those tidal races which, uh, as we were talking about the, uh, the sound, similar, it's, it's off the, uh, uh, west coast of, uh, east coast of Jura, and it's one of those that if you get in it, it's just an open gate that takes you to wherever you ...
49:32
It's going.
49:33
No, you're going.
51:48
Wow
47:08
Are you swimming home, Simon?
47:09
Um, yeah.
47:11
[laughs] Um, so, uh, what I thought I would pour, um, given again, the nature of the event, um, is a little bit of Bowmore Dorus Mor, which references the tidal races around the island, um, and also known as Tempest.
47:28
Um, we're gonna pour these samples now.
47:32
Um, so this is the Bowmore sa- um, and this one is the batch number three, which technically for those that know the Tempest series, this is actually Tempest, uh, number five.
47:47
Number five.
47:48
Um, they cannot produce, uh, they cannot sell it as Tempest in the United States because, uh, there's, somebody else has already got the name Tempest for, I think it's a wine.
48:48
Yeah.
