So it's time for a wee dram, and I've got a particularly fine Glenlivet to have a sip of
I generally like island whiskeys, Lagavulin, Talisker, anything with a bit of smokey peatyness, but I'm in the mood for something a bit lighter tonight
What drop do you fabbers like ? |

I do like teachers not a single malt but a fine whiskey, well balanced, enough of an edge to give it bit, but not to much to rip the throat out of you, with a slight,smokeness but not over powering, all in all a pleasant little whiskey |

Isle of Arran 12yr Single is my usual tipple however I tried a rather good Yamazaki 12yr old single in Tokyo recently and was VERY impressed. Ps this is not a euphemism, I mean whiskey. |

My personal fave is the jura origin. Otherwise the Aberlour is fantastic or the old pulteney serves up a nice wee treat on the pallet. You pretty much can't go wrong with speyside ones |

Seagrams is available over here from some specialist importers - prices vary from £20 to £30 per bottle. Google is your friend to find UK retailers. |

Cardhu 12yo is the smoothest malt I've ever had! Also, currently drinking a 15yo Balvenie which is excellent too. Got an Old Pulteney waiting in the wings also.
All time favourite is Ardbeg Uigeadail - a cask strength - it's simply stunning! |

My dad tried to give me a drop of Cardhu earlier (I hate whisky & was feeling poorly anyway). His favourite is a 1972 Millburn |

Don't mind if I do
Near my home town is Scotland's oldest distillery - Glenturret - and they produce a mighty drop.
Sadly they've been bastardised into the Famous Grouse Experience.
And I believe that you can only get it as an export today |
