Single malt whisky

[Fiftyyearsandcounting]

Irritates me when I see articles on Scottish whisky spelt with an "E" Whiskey). Or even worse when Welsh, Irish, Yankee and others are spelt without "E". Not allowed!

 

[Tuearts right boot]

Drinking gin is a lot less confusing.

Where's that magic pole guy ?

Out on his arse with a bottle of Buckfast, I'd imagine.

 

[Alan Oakes Shinpads]

For something slightly different ,Glenmorangie Lasanta,smooth but plenty of flavour

Had a bottle of that years ago and it was nectar! Don’t see it many places now though.

Or on somebody else's arse

Not according to my daughter, multitude of flavoured gins, which have to be paired with the right flavoured tonic, and then adorned by a slice of complementary (in the taste bud sense rather than the "ooh your a nice looking gin" sense) slice of fruit, Whisk(e)y on the other hand, with or without an E, as I can never remember which is which (mainly cos I don't care) is a simple drink, which suits me fine

One word:

Speyside

Not well up on scotch and am not overly a fan of the smokey, peaty flavour.
However my godson got me a selection for Christmas and there was an excellent single malt Speyside in there.
Very smooth. Really enjoyed it.

Christ I don’t know. Was the Christmas before the one just gone.
Think it was a twelve year old.
Got me a gift set of three, of which the Speyside was definitely the nicest.

I would normally be more into Irish Whiskey as I’m not a huge fan of the peaty taste, but I’ve had a few Scotch which were really good. Usually over in England at my brother in law’s.
He had Old Cardu which is a Speyside I believe and I seem to remember a Glenmorangie a good number of years ago.
I treated myself to a Chivas Regal in Barcelona a few years back. That’s a Speyside I believe but don’t think it’s single malt. Was really good anyway.

I’ve always found most of AnCnoc’s offerings to be very medicinal but I haven’t tried the 18Y — worth a go, even given my preferences?

Its a Speyside, it's strong but smooth as silk. Only ever had a couple of bottles, as it's right at the top end of what I will pay, but I do find it very agreeable indeed.

May pick up a bottle this weekend, then, as I need to replenish the stock.

I’m working my way through the 101 Whiskies to Try Before You Die* reference that a mate gave me a few years ago.

nice list, I currently have the Bowmore 15YO and the Balvenie 14YO Caribbean Cask both of which are very good, haven't tried the other distilleries but I did stay for a week a couple of years back about a mile from the Abelour distillery and couldn't get on a tour as they were all booked up :/
