Try a wee dram of this. Lovely stuff. As a soft southerner I've been enjoying Scotland's finest for 10 years + now. Started off with a nice easy on the palate Dalwhinie 12 yo then move on to the more challenging tastes Ardbeg Laphroig Auchentoch (i think thats how its spelt)

etc etc. on the day of my marriage my wife to be got me a bottle of Glen Grant 50 year old ... I kid you not. I do love that lady!!!

Hello,

 

The smell of TCP is distinctive of Islay whiskies, although some of the Island ones do carry the same aroma. I agree with the other posters that it may well have been Lagavullin, a very peaty, medicinal Islay which I really like.

 

If you want to experiment, search for a whisky flavour map & see where your preferences lie. Other favourites of mine are Talisker (Isle of Skye) Jura - Island, Laphroiag & Ardbeg - Islay, & of the lighter more delicate ones; Glengoine, Dalwhinnie & Auchentoshan are worth a taste.

 

Enjoy

Not really a whiskey drinker. I used to enjoy a JD or JB.

 

As for whiskey's I drank quite a lot of Chivas whilst in Thailand. Not quite as much a my old mate Hunter. but a Chivas all the same.

Just 'cos it says 12 on the packaging and you have had it 6 doesnt make it 18 y/old whiskey does it?

 

I though the aging process was in the Cask?

 

Dean, I am sure some of those North of the great wall, may class it as a tourist thing. BUT I did the whiskey trail up in the Highlands with my old man when I was younger. Great fun it was but a harsh awakening for a 15 year old.
