Well recommended - for the sherry hint whisky drinkers on here

Restocked, hard to beat at the price.

IMG_6177.jpg Finished this bottle of Slane last night (with help!) & worth a try if you like a Sherry cask.

The Campbeltown loch is lovely neat warmed up in the glass. Getting through the bottle too fast. So started on the Benromach. Needs a bit of water this one! Also lovely. Luxury in a glass. Tiniest touch of smoke. Which works wonders.

Glad I'm not paying...

Added another k16 as found at RRP. And added another as recommended by our very own mcd.

The price variance on this is crazy. 65 up to 180. Nonsense.

So I have usual avoid most single malts (and blends) as I used to not enjoy them compared with rum or brandy.

However whilst on holiday recently I tried some Tomatin 10 year old and very much enjoyed it! I have also previously enjoyed Glengoyne 12 year old.

I am interested in getting a bottle for the house.. (for special occasions) and wondering if anyone would recommend something?

I saw that ha_banos previously enjoyed one of the Italian wine Tomatins.. so that is top of my list at the moment!

The barolo. I'm not a seasoned scotch drinker. Early journey for me. But that Tomatin was nice. I'm enjoying this too. Not so sweet. But smooth and tasty. Got to try first really. Get some miniatures in.

sweet, no smoke.

First time trying the quarter cask. Tried the bodega, 10, amarone. I think this is my favourite of all these.

Right I've almost caned the Sb10.

Bought couple of these secret Speyside bottlings. Not cheap so going to auction one to bring down the price of the other is the plan.... never done this before! If not ... Got a couple bottles of 17 yo Macallan to try!

I had a chance to try this at a whisky festival last weekend and it's a really good dram in my opinion. You won't lose either way Banos.
