I've been sitting on this one for a month short of 8 years, today I finally had good reason to open it.
Not just a house move but, long story short, a big positive marker in my life as well.
Cheers, all.

This is a nice whisky:
And technically it’s still dry January as this is for medicinal purposes only: to counter the effects of last night’s science experiment at the vGTG.
The experiment was, which is better: Lore or Uigeadail?
I don’t remember the result...I became tired....might need more data points!

at £15 i would clear the shelf! it's a very good entry level malt that , i think they are phasing the 10 year old out soon and promoting the 12. i awlays have a bottle of this in along with talisker and laphroaig

I’ll go and have a look tomorrow, they didn’t have many, I bought two. One for myself, one for a mate.
I’m opening it now to try.
Edit: Damn it, I think it wasn't stored upright as the cork is a bit damaged and stuck to the bottle. Shame.
Not a bad drink though.

Lovely watch!
... but what did you think of this Bunnah? I expected much more purchasing this after the 12yr old - I mean it's a very decent, light, Islay and it was a bargain on Amazon at around £21 a month or so ago...but it feels very young, and just several classes below the 12 (which I thought was great for the money).

wonder if any TZers has contacts in distilleries or whisky wholesale businesses? lockdown has hit hard and I'm considering buying in bulks.. Thanks!
I tried the Stiuireadair in one of the blind sessions I took part in a couple of months or so back, one or two of us enjoyed it however I was one of a few that thought it average at best. I'm yet to open my bottle of Moine.
Monday Club ;)
Thanks to Mr for the recommendation.
I love Bulleit Bourbon. I love Speedmasters.
Fine choices!
Burns Night tonight ..... nice excuse to have a dram on a Monday night. Loch Lomond 18 about to be poured

Im trying to get through a bottle of Macallan Gold to free up the space it’s taking up in my piano (aka whisky cabinet). Must say that I’m really not enjoying it at all. I know it’s an entry level Macallan, but I expected better than this to be honest. I can only manage one before having to move on to something else every time I try it.
Won’t be buying that again.
Tuesday club. Promise I don’t have a problem ;)
No a malt but I do like a wee dram of black bottle... Cracking for the money tbh

Tonight’s Dram! I’m running out of watches, not bottles. Need to correct that balance. ;)
Do old scotch & brandy have any value?
Dad mentioned he has several 50+ years old bottles, Bells, Dimple & 70-80 Courvoisier, all boxed?
Potentially considerable value, if they are older / rarer whiskies i.e. a 1950s bottling of a 21 year old Macallan will be worth rather more than a standard bottling of Grants!
Whisky values have gone through the roof in recently years, he might be sitting on a small gold mine.
(I’d be useless at investing in whisky due to my propensity to sample it!)
