Its a Petey drink aye!
Oh sorry peaty, no its not, as Pete won't touch peaty whiskys. And the reason you like is because its not blended its a single malt.

I'm sporting a bit of a hangover this AM thanks to getting into the whiskey last night: Lagavulin 15y Distillers Edition. Also like the Ardbeg - tastes like liquid campfire smoke (but in a nice way). My Mrs also hates the smell of it, and won't go near me after I've had a drink

I doubt he'll find it again, unless he popped to Bakewell to 'The Wee Dram', but at 50 odd quid a bottle, I'm not surprised its taken him a while to polish it off!
Yes he will, You just have to know where to look...

I've used The Whisky Exchange for the odd time i've bought a few bottles. They are good people and let me spend about an hour looking around their warehouse late one evening after work!

I'm partial to a drop or 10 of Laphroaig or Ardbeg in particular. They're my faves but am willing to try more purely in the interests of science of course

Whisky is like people - anything under 16yo, (tho preferably 18yo) should be considered a perversion

Apparently (tho may be an urban myth) St Andrews University Whisky Apreciation Society got into some trouble for a t-shirt that read

"St Andrews Whisky-Soc do it with 15 year olds", this was after they had considered and replaced "12 year olds" to "15 year olds" in the name of good taste....

Just been given a small bottle of Lagavulin 16yo by my son, not got into that yet. Currently have a cask strength Laphroig, a Bowmore, a Glenfarclas 15yo and a Balvennie Double Wood on the go.

I recently bought an 18yo Tomatin for a friend and was very impressed by that as well.

Whisky? Yes please!

Really loving Lagavulin at the moment: the missus took me to a whisky bar near Marble Arch the other day: crap music but over 200 bottles of the good stuff:

I love her so much!
