I do partake on occasion, haven't liked all that I've tried, but have enough to give me some variety!!! I will take them neat ,with a little water to open them up nicely or on ice (the last option is my preferred way.....)
Ones I like:- Glenmorangie (10 yr old) Glenfiddich (Special Reserve) Isle of Jura 10 and 18 (the 18 was superb) Macallan 10 yr old Laphroig Glenlivet Glenrothes - never heard of this 'til I tried it in LA of all places!!! Ones I wasn't keen on:- Bowmore - too much like TCP!!! Ardbeg - shame, as I live on Ardbeg Road (worth trying as it could've been cool!!) To |

Now this may ruffle a few feathers, I have just tried a glass of English Whisky, should that be whiskey or even whiskie, who knows, anyhoo it was distilled in November 2006 & was bottled last weekend by the guy that bought it (actually he bought 12 bottles), i was quite surprised at how nice it was considering it is only three years old, quite mellow & fruity especially with a drop of water but obviously very pale, it has been aged in Bourbon barrels.
Now do i accept his kind offer of buying a bottle at what he paid for it, actually they are engraved decanters, each with it's own number & certificate, i think i will, then take a quick trip to the distillery to get a bottle for appreciation. ![]() |

As an aside, I thought you can only call it whisky if it has aged 3 years and a day in the barrel? Or is that Scotch Whisky only? ![]() |
