Whisky

I cracked the seal on a bottle of that last night. Very enjoyable. I found a pack with two glasses for the same price as the bottle.

I won this independent bottling of Bowmore 18 year old on Twitter last week. At 60% it is surprisingly smooth & warming with wafts of smoke and peat

I am normally a teetotaller. But on a cold autumn/winter night, nothing is better than a whisky. Black Bottle is what I prefer although I once had a 20 bottles big single malts whisky collection.

Whisky is made by, in and for cold, rainy dark evenings.

.....which is a good oppurtunity to claim that a bike ride to and from Islay is something everyone here should do at least one time in their lives. It is not a bike ride though. It is a pilgrimage. It is our Mekka.

10 of us went to Islay in August - can't recall one person having a whisky though...

The paint shop refuse to sell me any more meths, but I was fond of the Clarke's Industrial.

Miss Goodbody reports that she's fond of smoother ones, with an ozone 'head' and a strong finish with perhaps a stroke of vinegar.
