Brora 37 Year (1977) Special Release 2015

Review by: dustbunna I’m making an exception to my usual tendency to review full bottles. My wife and I bought a house this year, and I was given an ounce of this as a housewarming gift. This is a whisky that, these days, is entirely beyond what I could reasonably afford—Brora is a distillery I had written off as impractical for me to access, so it was quite a pleasant surprise to have the…

do you think extinct gaelic dialects could possibly be revived (saying nothing of the likelihood of that happening) if enough people were to make an effort in learning/speaking them? sometimes i look at old dialects as a learner and wish somehow they could be brought back

Depends on the dialect and how extinct they are. First of all, people like to speak of some dialects as extinct when they're not yet, they're just very threatened. For example, there is a still a native speaker of Perthshire Gaelic alive - she's 104 but she's still kicking. The same for Easter Ross Gaelic - still has one old woman who's a native speaker, a fisherwife in the village of Brora. Her sister passed away last year, making her the last native speaker, but she's still around. One family has kept up Tayside Gaelic for two generations now, and other speakers could learn to speak the local language from them. Other dialects have semi-speakers, aspects of which could still be picked up though it would not be the complete dialect as gained from a fluent speaker - for example, the son of the last native speaker of Aberdeenshire Gaelic is still alive, and he, while not fluent, is competent in the languge and can recite some poems and rhymes from memory that his mother taught him which will be enough to save some vocabulary and phrases, should someone decide to pick it up.

Then there are dialects who's last native speakers have passed away, but where fluent learners actually did what we're discussing here, and learned the dialect to fluency at those last speakers knees - examples just based on people I know at least somewhat personally would include north Argyle, Dùthaich MhicAoidh, Wester Ross, Glens of Loch Aber and Glen Coe. These dialects, then, also have a lease of life, and could be learned and spoken with now living speakers.

A third category would be dialects which, while extinct, were extensively recorded before their death and which could be picked up with a degree of continuity from those recordings. Isle of Arran, for example (which I know at least Alasdair Paul is doing for his historical novels, who's characters speak with a clear Arrannach flavour), or Badenoch, or Lorne (the last native speaker, Iain MacPhàidein nach maireann, passed away not five months ago), among others. All of these I would say could all be revived and be said to be genuinely the same dialect, even though it will of course change and loose some of it's flavour, and certain sayings or words that just simply were never recorded.

However, there is a last category of dialects that are irreparibly lost, that simply were not recorded in time. Loch Lomondside Gaelic, for example, died out in the early 20th century, and the only extensive collection that happened locally, by Dòmhnall Dewar, was not a linguistic but a folkloric study. The same goes for most of the borderlands and the Southern Highlands, (Cowall, Kintyre, Black Isle, South Argyle, Braemor, and Bredalbane, etc) and generally most districts outwith the crofting region, where the languge (as well as more or less the entirety of the people) disappeared with the clearances, without the lease of life granted by crofting and the crofting act. This goes doubly so for the only dialect of Lowland Gaelic that survived into modern day, in the form of that Gaelic which was spoken in the Glens of Galloway into the 17th century. These dialects are all lost completely. But, as you understand from the earlier list, a surprising number of dialects are still alive and to some extent kicking, and could have a fighting chance if things were to turn out differently. I can give you some tips or contacts if the dialect you yourself is interested in is salvageable, just DM me or send another ask if whatever.

Gabardine Hightail. (Just a rusty nail with honey.) "A rusty nail is a cocktail made by mixing Scotch whisky with Drambuie in a 1:1 to 2:1 ratio. A rusty nail is most commonly served on the rocks in an old-fashioned glass, although it can also be served "up" in a stemmed glass." (wikipedia: carlo devito The New Single Malt Whiskey) Drambuie is scotch that has been honeyed in some way, so it is basically: scotch, scotch & honey, & honey. This drink was actually invented for Psych. Two parts Brora scotch, one part Drambuie, a teaspoon of honey.

I think my dad's starting to like me.

psychfact: Shawn had three earrings, you know, because of tears for fears. & I'm pretty sure that he still has the holes bc he wore em in the american duos episode.

Gus: My date smelled like mothballs. Shawn: Somtimes you smell like styrofoam. I dig it

Easily whampable. Gus thinks Shawn is fooling, which yeah get a great dane & name him lothar, but then Shawn literally collapses & Gus takes him to the hospital. & then Henry doesn't even hug him. Y'all it doesn't matter if he was barely poisoned, he still passed out & possibly sustained some lasting damage!

Lassiter: Spencer, Guster, go back to bed. Gus: SEPARATE beds Buzz: Gus is a player & he only shares his bed with shorties.

I would withhold detailed comments as it serve as event. Relatively calm flavor as Brora, subtle forest and hint of smoke, sharp peaty and fruits in latter of palate.
