Touche.

Sainsburys have some very good offers on right now.
I got a bottle of Dhalwinnie, one of my favourites, for £20

The 15 Dalwhinnie year is lovely stuff.

My excursion today to led me to Royal Mile Whiskeys I walked out with the Abelour A'bunadh and an Auchentoshan

Three Wood?

Three Wood?

21 year :) see...

I'm off after lunch to get myself a stonkingly old and expensive single malt.

Only the 21?

Depends if you wanted a christmas present or not, or anything ever again

The Abelour A'bunadh is fecking tasty. Looking forward to the Auchentoshan tomorrow night.

on my way 'round, and don't pretend you're asleep

Sunotory Yamazaki

that is great stuff, you used to be able to get it sainsbury's

I tried a really expensive Japanese one the other week at The Hemingway on Victoria Park Road and oh my days it was incredible. Sunotory Yamazaki 18yo I think. The guy on the bar, who had amazing knowledge from working in gentlemen's clubs, said it was the best he'd ever had. He said I had to try it and poured me a measure free of charge. I took a sip and then we continued to chat, at which point I accidentally knocked the glass and the remainder of its contents all over the bar. Fuck, embarrassing.

this stuff is tasty

Nikka pure malt black.

Nice. Thanks dad.

I'm not a huge fan; it's a bit too medicinal for me. But I do like the Auchentoshan.

is that the cask strength one, tastes like a speyside sherry cask? I'm getting to the end of my bottle on that, it's lush

Yeah. Mine's a Batch 36 at just a hair over 60%. Lovely stuff.

Really? Don't get any clove or medicinal hints off any of the Abelour's at all. Stay away from the Island malts then would be my advice.

If you like the Auchentoshan then you're probably also a fan of Jameson's. No?

I just found out the Suntory 17yo I've been looking for is on bloody amazon and it's a blend (I bought it in taipai)

It's damned tasty

I do like an Islay (Caol Isla cask strength current fav) but there's something about the A'Bunadh that I just don't like... strokes and folks and all that I guess.

The latest bottle I have finished is the 12yo AnCnoc.

Speyside.

Yum.
