A whisky recommendation

[Oxford Dave]

My favourite thus far and I have had a quite a few . Is Macallan Sherry oak , it’s splendid however I do prefer the Speyside malts to anything peaty from through west. Just as a side note Pendaryn which is Welsh is actually not too bad as well!

Just poured myself a Penderyn - lovely stuff!

Another vote for Penderyn here. If you want to try other foreign malts, I can highly recommend Amrut, it’s an Indian delight.

Balvenie.

I'm not a whisky lover, particularly, but that in all its variants, is lovely.

Keep meaning to try Penderyn, but have yet to see it in any pub I infrequently visit, and I'm loath to spend the money on a bottle "untested".

With regards to the cheaper blends, I'm very partial to Black Bottle, and have recently started drinking Shackleton... Both a step up from the usual grouse et al.

You can buy samples of whisky to try before splashing out on a bottle

Balvenie 12yo Doublewood is an excellent money/quality ration. Yesterday i had Glenlivet XXV year old single malt, couldn't open yet.

Treated myself to a bottle of Monkey Shoulder the other day, very nice and not too pricey. Well worth a try IMHO

Nah, I was just joshing anyway, you don't get a sore head with good whisky. I just wish I had a stronger stomach.

Yeah I never really suffer the morning after, like you say good whisky

I add couple bottles of Whiskey in a shopping cart, that was an online order. Macallan Estate Single Malt and Glenlivet Archive 21yo Single Malt. Not opened yet Glenlivet XXV bottle. I try to save that "jewelry" later.

I do love a peaty whisky & Laphroaig hits the spot.
