Re: Whiskey
As some of you are miserable old men on here I'm guessing some of you know a good whisky/whiskey when you see one. Can anyone recommend one for me. Is Dalmore nice as i like the bottle... and what age is good without being a million quid? would a 12 year Dalmore be ok?
thanks guys

Re: Whiskey
Talisker is only recommended for people who are really fond of campfires - it is like drinking a liquified partially burnt log. I was given a bottle of 18 year old by a friend a few years ago and I had one drink before I gave it away. It is foul beyond belief!
Balvenie however is sublime stuff..

They are all an aquired taste though, the missus bought me a £75 bottle of single malt and it was rough as a badgers ringpiece.

Re: Whiskey
A nice 12 or 18 year old Jameson single malt. Somewhere around not sure of the price but the 18 year old is probably less than 70 euro. Easily available in all duty frees so will probably be cheaper than I mention.
Really smooth whisky and of course its Irish:sunglasses:
Ignore millhouse he is more of a WKD or Smirnoff Ice drinker

Re: Whiskey
By the way Whiskey (the thread title) is Irish and Whisky is I believe what the scottishers call it.

Famous Grouse.
Something shite, but he can't moan because you've at least given it SOME thought.

Re: Whiskey
I used to work in a bar in Aberdeen that had a good selection of malt whiskeys and by far the most popular was the 12 year old Balvenie Doublewood.

Re: Whiskey
Highland Park 1998 (from Orkney!) is also a very smooth and palatable single malt.
