Love this stuff & for me personally it stood out as the best offer of the day at only £37. There are also good offers on Talisker 10yr old & Laphroig Quarter cask with both at £27 & Powers Gold label distillers cut at £21, being some of the standouts. I’m hoping there may be some more interesting last gasp/ second day offers from midnight tonight, but I’m happy enough with this little haul.
I’m very much a beginner here and this doesn’t smell as nice as Laphroaig, to me, as that is my only benchmark. Tastes nice though and seems very easy to drink.
I know nowt about tasting things like a Highlander’s toenail but it seems an easy drink.
Pretty good description if you ask me. I finished a bottle last week and while it isn’t the finest malt I’ve tasted it certainly does nothing wrong on the taste front.
A wee dram of Bunnahabhain 12 yr this evening. Pictured with a quaich, which I was given before my wedding in 2004, and which my father and father in law drank from, before I finished it off.
Also a Bells royal wedding decanter for Chuck and Di wedding in 1981. I’m certainly no fan of the house of Windsor, but this was always on display on the shelves of my grandparents drinks cabinet as I grew up, and when they died I wanted this to remember grandad by, as he liked a wee dram.
And in the time it has taken me to post this on my phone, which is an autocorrect nightmare, the minute in a glass for a year in the cask rule has been applied correctly. Slàinte!
