Whiskey - What's your favourite?
« on: December 17, 2015, 02:51:46 pm »
Haven't seen on a topic on this so I thought I'd start one for any whiskey drinkers out there!

I'm a big fan and have amassed a small collection over the last few years.

Anybody out there try anything outstanding? (Omitting anything in the £100 a glass range please)

Like Whisky and Whiskey, but reluctant to pay big money. Last enjoyable bottle was Johnnie Walker Red Label.

Lagavulin 14 is good

I like glenmorangie 10. Straight ahead easy to drink.

My wife baned me from drinking whiskey in summer......

Macallan  All time favourite.  Any of the Speyside malts are silky smooth.

It never ends well when the whiskey comes out... I very rarely drink spirits.  Someone bought me a bottle of Honey Jack Daniels last year, sounds awful but it was soo easy to drink and smooth I was messed up, lol.

My favourite has to be Ben Riach original but every year I make my own blend for Christmas and this year is blueberry and it is definitely smelling potent  :drool:

Make from start to finish? Full distillation to 40 odd % or the homebrewing style at 20 odd %?

No I just cheat and buy a few litres of Bells or similar and add fruit and sugar very similar as to how you would make sloe gin and leave it for months
