    This baby turned up while I was watching the game tonight. Can't really say I noticed the second half.

    Beautiful stuff!
    I'm looking to try some new ones so I googled this. Shame about the price ☹️

    If money's no object then the Lagavulin 16yo is a step up again.

    Laga 16yo is about £70 here at the moment. That 12yo is double that.  Its cask strength and is superb, but the price is a bit of a piss take.

    If you've not tried it before and like a pleated whisky then you cant go wrong with a Port Charlotte 10yo.

    In Spain it's becoming expensive too.  Currently about €100 for a 70cl bottle.

    I treated myself to the 18yo as it turned up on Amazon Prime day for 75€. Very very nice whiskey. i also indulged in a Bushmills Steamline (or something similar) which matured in port casks - bit expensive but I save it for Charlton victories so it should last at least until christmas!!

    Just about to open this bottle, quite looking forward to it.

    I'm a fairly new addition to the whiskey world, but I've got a modest collection of bottles in the 50 to 90 quid range which I am cheerfully working through (especially after recent Charlton matches). Any suggestions gratefully revieved - my current favourite is the Dalmore called The Trio which my wife picked up as an airport exclusive. I have my eye on a Chivas Regal 18 year old gold label for new year - anyone tried it?
    Give Cadenhead’s a bell, they’ll be able to steer you right in the £50-£90 range.

    Much prefer a nice bourbon to be honest. Think Lynyrd Skynyrd might have influenced me in my youth somewhat 😀
    Some absolute belters here for very reasonable money

    As it's half time...

    Used to drink a reasonable amount of Bourbon, Four Roses was always very good and reasonably priced compared to the bigger names.

    I have to admit, also to having liked one called Old Granddad (I think), because I was poor, and it was very nicely priced.

    Moved much more towards French style Rhum Agricoles in the last ten years or so (I may, on occasion overindulge in mojitos).

    Is it too early in the day to pour myself a dram? Might make the second half pass quicker .....

    Slightly above budget, but I tried this at the Whisky Show this year and it was spectacular!
