Whisky

Has any one tried Yamazaki single malt whiskey, it's a Japanese whiskey, they do it in Sainsburys, it's bloody lovely
 
I have a confession chaps....
I do NOT like whisky!
There, I've said it....it's out there..
I'm utterly ashamed of myself, here's why.
My dad loves the bloody stuff, probably has it every day of the bastard year!
He hasn't look me in the eye since I dropped this bombshell on him a couple of Xmas's ago!
Thing is I have tried to like it...honestly!
I want to like it but it never happens..
Just really doesn't taste nice to me one bit!!

Now, I never used to like Guiness or real ale...love them both now!
So is it an age thing?...will I be in your gang one day?

I hope, I pray and I ask for guidance please!

Oh I forgot to mention that I quite like a drop of port!
Does that help matters?

Well now, here's how I started to like it.
My dad, like yours, loves the stuff. Every Christmas i'd try it and every Christmas i'd hate it. It was just horrible, vulgar stuff and it would make me gag, just the smell of it.
November 2000, I'm 23. City are playing United and town is dry. We go into a bar underneath the Midland and my bro buys me a Laphroaig. HOOKED!!!! Thats how I got into it and that very Christmas I got a bottle of Laphroaig and that was that. Now I like to think of myself as some kind of whisky buff.
That was when I was 23, i'm now 33. Lovely!

edradour. from scotland's smallest distillery & clean as a whistle. in fact i might well go & have one now.


Best of the best. The demand is so high for this whisky that they only export ( to the japs who pay top dollar for it) This whisky you will only find at specialist stockists or going to Pitlochry

Currently got a bottle of Laphroaig on the go - certainly distinctive.
Always tasted like disinfectant to me Laphroaig. I prefer a nice Irish whiskey myself. I'm half way through a bottle of Bushmills Black Bush at the minute. Very smooth.

Try the cask strength laphroaig at 53% - smells like hospital and your body feels like the inside of one the next day.

Lovely with a drip of water - watch the milky reaction in the glass
