The Org Bar, Pull up a chair and share. What're you drinking?

I'd love to try the Vat 69 as well. Just like you, saw it on Band of Brothers and always fancied a taste. Might have to get the credit card out...

I tried the JD Honey last year at a bar, interesting stuff. Incidentally saw it about to be added to the sainburys offers tonight. Not sure if other supermarkets aren't cheaper (check mysupermarket.com I guess) but might be worth a look.

Bought the Vat 69 from Amazon for £22.40

Sounds like the very similar carpet we inherited when we moved in 12 years ago. When we had the extension added five years later it became the garage carpet as the GSX-F is not bothered what it's wheels sit on.

Bad influence Brettus. Got this from Asda

Yay! Welcome to the discerning drinkers society
I've not tried many blended whiskys yet. I'm on single malts primarily but I started by trying loads of spirits, gin, Cointreau, cognac (I rather like those too!) vodkas and a couple of types of absinthe.

All interesting but I'm no fan of vodka anymore, not now I've found a world of flavours out there

Enjoy Kenzie

Don't know the differences between different types. Got a glass of vat 69 and coke at the moment. It's smooth, not too much of a kick with a nice warming feel to it.

I will get some of this next time I head over there!

I'll never buy the overproofed variety again though, you're left not knowing what happened the night before!

I got this for my birthday and cracked it open as all my other whiskies are still in storage after moving house...



This is a lovely expression of Dalwhinnie, one of my favourites when I'm in the mood for a sweet whisky. The nose is fruit cake and walnuts, with a hint of vanilla. The feel in the mouth is full and oily, coating the tongue and mouth. The taste has fruit cake, vanilla and honey tones with a subtle hint of peat and smoke. The finish is warming with the vanilla and honey intensifying.

Bloody lovely and an ideal Christmas dram.

Dalwhinnie is the main malt in the Johnny Walker range of whiskies. The highest distillery in Scotland.
