Archie McSquackle Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 Thanks guys. I really enjoyed the one I went to before but I think it was late afternoon and it felt a bit odd coming out into the bright sunshine from a basement after a good few whiskies! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HI HAT Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 A wee retirement present from workmates, proof that even though it's an NAS whisky, nothing bad comes out of Aberlour. Really enjoying it. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their core bottlings can be a wee bit thin at 40% though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, I enjoyed the Cask Annamh, and used to really enjoy the A'Bunnadh until the price went through the roof. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Le Tout P'ti FC Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 An article regarding the purchase of a cask of Ardbeg 1975 for £16m, or as I prefer to think of it, a mere £37k per bottle. The article explains well the rarity value of Ardbeg of this vintage, and mentions that £1m of the proceeds are being donated to the local community. I love Ardbeg, more so the location and the people at the distillery than the whisky itself to be honest, but this price tag could never sit well with my conscience. https://www.ft.com/content/9ef2353d-99d5-41de-ba21-e45df485495c 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A'Bunadh on Prime Day at 67 snaps delivered. Doubt you'll ever get it cheaper tbh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HI HAT Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 Picked up the A'Bunadh on Prime as well . Not much else jumped out at me though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GiGi Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 It's good it's still not £67 good imo. Only one I saw that caught my eye was the Compass Box one at £32. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Le Tout P'ti FC Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 Nice wee tour of Abhainn Dearg distillery at Uig on Lewis.Distillery is currently out of production (since Covid lockdown) but awaiting some new parts to get them back up and running again. Warehouse is well stocked to tide them over. Took away drivers drams of a 10yo Sauternes cask 57%, and a 10yo Rioja cask 58% and a wee bottle for the collection at home. The drivers drams have been necked back at our digs tonight and have been absolutely delightful. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
invergowrie arab Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 Got some Paul John Indian whisky for 25 quid from Prime Day. It might be fucking rank but worth a spin at that price. Their SMWS stuff was really interesting. 26 quid for Talisker 10 is a steal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V.Aye.R Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 Talisker at under £27 is the pick of the bunch for me! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's Compass Box, I expect it's probably really good like all their other stuff. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
