Here we have a a Recycled Review with a difference and one that may ask for more patience than usual. It is a masterclass in why it's difficult to shoot video outside as an amateur with the wrong kit. Still, hopefully you can glean something from it.
The first half is bottles enjoyed over the years in Spain with some observations on the current state of travel retail whiskies. Then we get back to more familiar territory next to the wee purple bin, but my neighbour decides to start up some power tools to compliment the clink and smash of the glass. Go with the flow. Embrace the messy.
