Re: Thursday 11th April - Decanting Experiment plus some drinkers

DM is to go into 2 magnum decanters TH to be split into Sandeman tawny bottle, Straight and Ship's with hopefully 650 to 700 ml in each, the same setup for each Tappit Hen.

Drink up leaker's (this is still to be added too) BN47 Cr55 N55 (very low fill) T66 GM79
