You'll just have to make do with Martell cognac.

Wait I’ve just checked online (love the look of them haha) and there isn’t a Martell! It’s a nights watch? THATS NO HOUSE!!

That's a good price for such a good whisky.

Seems so

I have been paying about ?49 a bottle on Amazon. It's been higher but it drops back to ?49 from time to time.

I found a price tracking app to track the whiskies I am after on Amazon. They all seem to have a special from time to time and I have saved ?200+ in the last two months.

I have seen a few mentions of Lagavulin 16 here and just thought I would let you know that Costco UK now does it at ?43 a bottle.

Some gifts from the girlfriend. Both new to me and looking forward to trying them


I also pre ordered the Game of Thrones whisky collection today, being a big fan of the show I couldn't resist!

I really like the Craigellachie...took a punt on it last year and it was lovely.

Not convinced on the GOT additions.

Just had a drop (literally) of the Lagavulin 16 that I ordered. It's good. Strange, but good. As I said earlier, I'm used to Speyside, but this has a complex, almost medicinal sweetness, in some ways, sweeter than a Speyside. The smokiness is there, but nowhere near as pronounced as I was expecting. Reminds me of Lapsang Souchong in a way. Will need to spend more time with this one, but so far, so good.

Try some Jura superstition or tailisker Skye

They are quite lightly peated

I'm sure I've had Superstition, but a long time ago.

I'd like to get into peat; I think it would open more possibilities for me as I tend to stick to Speyside.
