Whats ya tipple... Scotch like?

Postby The Budgie » Sat Jul 25, 2015 9:17 am

Last year I stopped at Bushmills and tried a wee dram of the Irish stuff...started my whisky taste buds off. Been stocking the bar at the new house lately and there's a few lovely examples of Scotlands finest...a few now have been 'tested' some unopened for laters...

When you read about this and that drop like arseholes, everyone's got an opinion...so posing the question....what's your favourite Scotch :-?

Well I bought a bottle of their 12 having tested it (can't get it anywhere else)..and an acquaintance of mine in Sheffield (whom I won't name) gave me wee dram of same and proceeded over next 6 months or so to slowly drain the bottle...made me promise to come back and refill the thing... :wink)



...roll on 2016 I say 8)
