Billions of battered barnacles

At the Scotch Malt Whisky Society for dinner with a friend, and a dram was taken of course just to be  polite ;-)

The society selects, further matures and bottles small batches from many distilleries, and so each ends up with a unique character. 

I'd love to be on the committee that makes up the names - my blip title is the bottle fifth from the right. Perhaps a future one to taste.
