With me it was at a friend's house and I still can't drink the popular blends. However give Bowmore or Bunnahabhain a try, remember the splash of water, and you might change your mind.
I do need to get my head around it and give it another go. Think I might book myself in a tasting session or something
When I looked, it surprised me how often "Scottish Whiskey makers" are owned by overseas companies. As to cap in hand, most of that is Scottish insecurity. In simple numbers, when you have one part of the country heavily popularised and another part sparcely populised but both parts expect the same levels of life then in sheer numbers, the heavily populised will pay more in taxes than those with a small population. Despite some claiming it makes Scotland feel like it is owned by the Westminster Tories, it is not. The same variance in population/spend happens throughout the world, Germany is a great example
go for a spayside over ice. good advice from somebody that's studied the subject and lives with those those that live it and consume it rather than relying on an advert. if you know what i am saying. :smileys:
bearing in mind everything in the uk is foreign owned i would recommend out of that list quickly the glenlivit i wouldn't pay £21 for a morar v.similar to the livit but its only £15. i like pretty much all of them, some just follow others better.
Weakens it :Stop: (a true alcoholic Irish race horse trainer told me that: Joe Mulhall) not someone who merely 'lives' with it pretentiously :Finger: :smileys:
personal taste obviously, but anybody thats anybody will recommend a bit of water or at the v.least some ice. not yer minging hard water mind.
Get yourself a bottle of Powers Gold, tripple distilled, it knocks that Scottish stuff clean out of the water! Oh and for reference it's whiskey not whisky.
meh, some Scottish whiskys are distilled up to twenty times. these guys make some good stuff. https://www.englishwhisky.co.uk/the-whisky
