I picked up a bottle of Glenallachie Distillers Edition in Morrisons the other day, only £15.  Selling on some websites at £30 a bottle.  Glenallachie appears to have been a Chivas distillery now in private ownership.  Morrisons also had Loch Lomond at £18.  I'll have a wee tasting session of the Glenallachie at the weekend.

Its interesting how peoples tastes differ borderbob is the first person that I've heard of that did not take to Monkey Shoulder.  On the other hand unlike him I don't really take to the like of Chivas Royal Salute.

Enjoying a 10 year old Ardbeg, I would enjoy it even more if they weren't trying to make their first £billion by over charging for it.

Gents had the very rare privilege of tasting a very special malt last night going by the name of Glenglassaugh 51-year-old. Simply outstanding is the only words to describe this single malt whisky. If your ever given the chance .....................take it, you won't be disappointed. Also sampled the delights of a Rosebank 25-year-old cask strength ...again stunning malt  and finished of with a Caol Ila 25 Year Old again excellent malt of choice

I've been lucky enough to taste a few very old whiskies, most are too woody for my taste, though each will be different, I prefer the 10 to 18 years old range myself.

That's about £150 a shot.  You won the pools? I could get 10 bottles of Morgans Spice for that wee glass...Pheeew

When Tomdoun Hotel was still open, and stocked over 100 malts, a regular question was "which is the most expensive?". When told, an order invariably followed. Mike could have said "Bells, £50 a nip" and gotten away with it.

Where would the whisky industry be without empty casks from bourbon and sherry and whatever?

My brothers turned up for 10 days and he's brought me a new one "Cotswold" an English single malt that is 3(yes three) years old, I'm sure in years to come it may well get some fans, but like all youngsters, it's a bit light and tastes a bit like pear drop sweets, pleasant enough, but I think I'll open my new Ardbeg AN OA tomorrow for a proper taster.
