The whisky thread

[BLUEYESTU]

Wandering around Sainsbury’s the other day I saw The Pogues Irish Malt whiskey on special offer with apx £7 off. Thought I’d give it a try and it’s really tasty stuff! Definitely a bargain at £18.
Also noticed in Booths last night that they have Smokehead on offer with £10 off.

Edradour. It's made at the smallest distillery in Scotland and can be a bit hard to find. Smooth as silk.

Not long since discovered an unopened Bunnahabhain 12 at the back of my stash. It's maybe 5 years since I last tasted Bunnahabhain and it was a very pleasant experience.

It's all gone now though, and I've moved onto a Tomintoul 14 which I am not enjoying as much as the Bunnahabhain.

Mrs Hef got me 10yr old single malt called Laphroaig for Fathers’ Day - I’m yet to try it though

My Mrs bought me Laphroaig (not Laphroaig Select) for my birthday, as she has done for years. I love it - very smoky, and different from most others, but i love it - it's addictive. To be savoured.

Hmmm I might make a trip to Booths then. Smokehead’s a great whisky and I quite like the fact that it’s a closely guarded secret which distillery it comes from, people guess at Ardbeg etc but no punters really know.

I was lucky enough to have a Smokehead 18 a while back and it was fantastic but after reading your post I’ve just looked it up and it’s now in the region of 200 quid!!!!

Got a lovely 10 year old Talisker to start this evening.

I got a bottle of that a few years ago and it came with free cuff links, one saying Love It and the other Hate It. Sums it up for me really - a lot of people can take the taste of it but I love it!

For the Islay fans, I'm just about to finish a Bunnahabhain (was £27, down from £35 @Sainsbury's, a few weeks back)

Lovely stuff

Back on offer at Morrison's. £26 from £35

After this morning's news, I might break it open, tonight

Is that a Bubba 12 or the Stiru
