My only memories of whisky are dropping of the Christmas bottles of bells to customers and farmers we dealt with, then the biggest farmer we dealt with invited me in for a drink (I only drank rum) and he had none, well bells whisky was the most vile poison I have ever tasted, but it was one of those situations where I really didn't want to be unsociable and boy could he drink.

Older and wiser I would just turn the offer down now, I would never want to go through that again :) it's a bit like throwing up on southern comfort, you are guaranteed to never touch the stuff again :)

I'll just stick to my rum.

Hi Dean,

 

I do like Laphroaig,

 

Got my lad some Quarter Cask & very nice too

 

Also gave our neighbour a bottle of Jura Superstition for feeding cats & chickens during last visit to UK & is now his favourite.

 

Enjoy

Our lass has just come back from Rome today and brought the Laphroaig back from the airport in Italy so it's done a lot of travelling to come back to the uk

It the litre bottle as opposed to the usual 750ml

This years trip north of the border ... we went to Arran. If you don't know it is just beautiful, although some great weather does really help. Had a superb afternoon at the distillery. Nice lunch from the café followed by a guided tour. At the end of the tour (only £6) a trip to the whisky bar where you can try before you buy. I was thinking of buying one of each. 10yo was a bit sharp and the 17yo a bit pricey but the 14yo has done me just nice, plus a couple more bottles for Xmas pressies.

 

Next year Mull or Skye ? :confused1:
