Thought I would treat myself to a bottle of my favourite Whisky, not an expensive bottle but I love this stuff.

Can’t go wrong with a Dalmore in my opinion, cracking Dram.
Theres a good Dalmore app you can get as well for more info.

Ah yes I've heard good things about that Whisky, I need to try it, I did try to find Chris's Whisky thread but failed

no offence to the OP, but personally I think you can do much better for the price. You can do much, much worse than Dalmore, but it has been coloured and filtered the f out of, and is a miserly 40% ABV.
For the price and style, I'd much rather a Glendronach 12 or Glenfarclas 12, or for a little more, Glenmorangie Lasanta.
Had a few glasses whilst in York.
So my Wife bought me....... Yamazaki 12.
Very nice.
Glenfarclas is definatly on the to try list, I quite like a sherry finish on my malts, Macallan is another favourite of mine

Again, heard so much about Japanese Whisky Paul, excuse the pun, it's just having the bottle to initially try it :)

Id heard good news re Japanese whiskies so had to try.One of my other favourites is Aberlor a bundah.
Loving japanese whiskies at the moment - I have a hibiki japanese harmony and a nikka from the barrel on the go. Both really impressive.

This.... very nice! Loved the Hibiki 12yr but stopped producing. Like Japanese whiskey, so picked up a Santory Chita is duty free to try too
I'm rather partial to some of the Japanese whiskies.. Hibiki 12 Year remains a firm favourite, though it's gone out of production and prices for bottles have gone a bit crazy.
But I had the fortune recently to try a glass of The Yamazaki Mizunara 18 Year Old (2017 Edition) which went on sale with an RRP of £1,000 a bottle and immediately sold out and was changing hands at £2,000 a bottle straight away.
All I can say is, it's made me realise there's an awful lot of hype out there. Sure, it was a nice whisky. But I'd much rather have had a £100 bottle of whisky, and spent the other £900-£1900 on a weekend away, as it wasn't THAT much better.
Check out Jeffrey street whisky and tobacco web site.
If you see anything you like let me know.

gone right off single malt, too heavy for me, onto this now, https://www.thewhiskyexchange.com/p/...-finish-cognac
and with a contact, £120 for a case of 6
There's a tasting of some lovely nikka stuff in skipton this weekend... https://www.instagram.com/p/BijjCTnn..._twitter_share

I'll be popping down to a local shop who has a rather big selection of world whiskies this afternoon.
I have I think 4/5 no longer in production whiskies from here,bought about 10 years ago,I asked their advice on a selection to buy for investment.
Dont ask me what they are I can't remember,their also not easy to get to with my bad back either right now!........but I do need to check them out and see how they've increased in price.....hopefully.
Gin. Doesn’t only apply to whisky?
The Skipton shop has a selection of Wines,Champagne and all other drinks too,a great place to browse and taste.
I have not yet found one to rival this, for me.
I do, however, continue trying.
Steve.
Yep - a great place to pass an hour! Love the sound of the investment bottles - how much willpower does it take not to have just a little taste?!

They were put away and forgot about tbh so no real temptation.Im going to the Wright Whisky shop tomorrow for the taste session,no doubt come away with a bottle or so.

Agree a very nice bottle,but rather like watches others must be bought and tried.
Steve.
I'll be there too at some point in the afternoon. Probably distinguishable by a seiko 007 on a NATO!

If you can't find a whisky in there you won't find it anywhere else,what a selection,and had I not been driving the walk back down the high street would have been fun with all the tasters.Thats something to do do later in the year by train and make a full day of drinking beer n whisky.
Even the miniatures collection is huge! A day split between Wright's and the beer engine would be pretty much perfect...

Ardbeg Uigeadail for me though I'm far more likely to drink a good tequila these days.
