  1. I normally get shit as I like it with ginger ale, but got given this single malt for Christmas. I refuse to spoil it with any mixer. Just tried my first shot neat and it is fecking brilliant!

  2. Good man , there is a special place in Hell reserved for people who put mixers in single-malt .
    It's just between paedophiles and people who ask for very well-done steak :yum

  3. I’ve not drunk whisky since I was at Bar school and we went on a weekend seminar course at one of the royal lodges in Windsor Great Park. There was a social in the bar on the first night and my mates and I foolishly decided to try every single malt. Error. I have a vague recollection of events until about midnight, then my next contact with consciousness was being woken up by someone as I was lying in the fœtal position on the ground, outside, at 5am, covered in frost, with a half-smoked cigar clamped between my teeth.

    I was so ill the next day and the day after that I’ve never touched whisky again.

  6. I had a similar experience with Southern Comfort, can’t stand even the smell of it since.

  7. there's a world of difference between the double and triple. i have the double and it's quite bland by comparison. still v,nice tho. it's been a couple of years since i had a bottle of the triple and i'm now starting to doubt myself. the Mr's says it was 14 yr triple oak. which is a bit of a bummer that i cant be more specific cos i want another bottle. awesome, smells very caramely/smokey.
    i know where i tasted it the first time. (kings house hotel Glencoe) i guess i'm gonna have to have another tasting session.
    nightmare. :D
