Do you know where they got it? Used to be my favourite whisky when it was sold at half price in a Dingwall petrol station.. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deefiant Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 Attending a whisky tasting "experience" at Malmaison in Dundee tonight. Anyone else been on one if these/going tonight? 5 "exceptional" drams (which I've heard are hand poured generously) and a 1 course meal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be interested in what drams they class as exceptional though so please report back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nkomo-A-Gogo Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 Was at my cousins last week and he was dishing out the malts. Jura was a nice one and i had a couple of those. I have a bottle of glenlivet "founders reserve" i got for christmas. Thats the extent of my collection! Might start adding to it but i dont get many visitors and even less who drink whisky so it would just be for me. I grew up near st ninians/broomridge and the fella who had the linden inn kept a fine collection. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should be good as the malmaison somelliers are all supposed to be Whisky Society trained. In Aberdeen and Glasgow you can go into malmaison to access the whisky society exclusive bottlings but not Dundee yet which is annoying. Usually cask strength and 50 ml nips. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's bought through the Scottish whisky society so assume it's an official event. Quite excited tbh - wish it was tonight 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Rational Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 Managed to register in time to get a bottle of MacAllan fine oak 12 year old this morning. It's the one that's in the Ernie Button presentation box whatever that is, but there's only 1500 bottles supposedly being produced so I'm going to stick it in the back of the cupboard for a rainy day..... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killienick Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 Cracked open a Jura Prophecy at the weekend - that's a mighty fine beverage! Just a wee bit more smokiness than the Superstition. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GiGi Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 My team in work collect £3 a month from everyone to cover birthdays. Totals £39. They know I like whisky so what did they get for me? 12 yr old Glenfiddich - but not even a full bottle, 500ml. Am I being ungrateful or is that actually a shiter for what you could have got for £30 odd?! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
