And selling everything by ballot just to fuel an insane secondary market....
...take it you entered the ballot for each decade also then?

Anyone here excited or disgusted with the Macallan bond 007 collection?
Piss take I think...

I can vouch for the Glenfarclas 105 which a mate brought round a couple of wks ago, and we compared it to the 15...the 105 was definitely more flavoursome and deeper sherry taste, albeit it takes a...
Tried these two side by side today, and was quite interesting to discern the differences...the Edition 5 is more bourbon influenced, vanilla butterscotch notes, and the higher abv (48.5%) really...
Agreed fully...

First in a new series of annual releases from Macallan, at £75, with no ballet (just waiting room queue) and sold out within minutes...?
Managed to bag one, not bothered to drink it, will see if...
Ooohhhh...will be cracking it very soon then!
see you've got the limited edition, but have you also tried the committee release?

How does it taste? Still not opened mine...

I'm a massive fan of the 12 and 18 (not tried the 15) which were absolutely delicious, complex, salted caramel sherried lightly peat wishkies. But, in fairness, the Stiuireadair was a bit boring for...
Personally, I have a mixed impression of JW Blue - it's a bit uninspiring to me to be honest...this is one of the "regular" bottlings as opposed to the rarer stuff and maybe someone who is more of a...
They released a Bunna 12 cask strength limited edition over the last few days for £75 - I got one and can't wait for it to arrive, as I am very smitted by the regular 12 (at about half that price)...
Cracked open Douglas Laing's Scallywag Chocolate limited edition...been over half a year since the sample tasting, and this is even better than I remember.
48% abv, heavily sweet sherried (I...
What is it?

Wondering what people recommend as an "affordable" (i.e. sub-£1k) alternative to a Pepsi GMT. I can only think of a Steinhart, but wondering if there are other micro-brands I might not have heard or...
Defo! The CS is a classic TCP bomb...and the sherry oak a much more rounded, elegant and sweeter dram, as you'd expect...price is a bit steep (same as the cask strength, and...well...not cask...
The Whisky Lounge, though I think this package is long sold out...they do run larger whisky festivals across the country (pandemic permitting) and I'd highly recommend going for whisky exploration!

I've had this stashed away for several weeks, but looking forward to working through it...it's been a couple of years to attend a whisky festival in person for obvious reasons, so I though this...
Fantastic distillery and this one is gonna be brilliant!!

Did a Douglas Laing "exceptional regional malts" tasting a couple of wks ago - you might have heard of the Epicurean, Timorous Beastie, Scallywag and Big Peat, etc...well they are bringing out some...
Ooohhh let us know what it's like...I haven't had chance to open mine yet

If you want to stick to that flavour profile it would have to be a GlenDronach 15 or 18, or GlenAllachie 15 or 18, or a Dalmore...

Hint of smoke without main event sounds like BenRiach The Smoky Twelve to me...was on offer at The Whisky Shop last week

Less then £50 (about £40) but two of the most delicious bottles on my shelves are the BenRiach The Twelve and The Smoky Twelve...they are rich, complex, sweet/smoky and just excellent!

Since there's plenty of posting activity tonight, here is my delivery today...
- Absolutely love GlenDronach, so that's a safe bet;
- Really loved the Benriach The Twelve (one of the highlights...
