Title: Re: Scotch
Post by: hotel21 on 30 October 2007, 23:35:26: I quite like Old Pulteney, the most northerly mainland Scotch, or Laphroaig, a rather tasty islay malt, but yes, agree that some blends are cack. Particularly some of the grain whiskys that originate not more than 10 miles from me, such as Old Cameron......

Not even to clean the paint brushes....... :'(

1963 Strathisla

25 year old Millburn

12 year old Millburn (1 of only 8 left in the world)

Most of the above are independent bottlings at cask strength and non chill-filtered.

some others...

Laphroaig

Bushmills 10 yo

Glenfiddich

Glenmorangie - 3 varieties

Glenrothes

Glen Ord

Scapa

Highland Park

Tomatin

Tormore

... and the list goes on...

I'm also a member of the Scottish Malt Whisky Society http://www.smws.co.uk so if anybody wants to visit the Leith vaults and try some really special stuff - give me a shout :y

Oh and I have a very special bottle of spuds (poteen) in the garage - great for cleaning the alloys!
