A wee dram...

Blimey.... that Macallan is a bit pricy, I'll just have the one bottle.
 
Mmm, yes I remember the look of delight on your face when you tried the Laphroig. :D
 
Once you get past the first page, some of the bottles sold for quite reasonable prices and most were near or even below the predicted price range. Shame about the £24.99 carriage charge though, since that certainly jacks up the price of the cheaper ones! 2 bottles of 15yo Glenlivet for £45 was certainly a bargain.

Edit: I see there is also a 1 week timed auction starting tomorrow and ending the 26th

£22 & a bottle of Jameson's and I would be more than happy. Not sure I see the point of dropping a lot of money on a bottle of booze you will never drink unless it's as an investment? Could have a good day at Grays of Westminster with that sort of money that's for sure.

I was in a whisky shop earlier in the year and the assistant asked if I was an investor or if I actually drank it. Mmmm, that'll be drinker.:rolleyes:
 
I'm a bit of both. I have about 5 or 6 discontinued bottles/presentations from Dalmore, Balvenie and a few others. They didn't cost a lot, but in the year or two that I've had them, they've already appreciated in price a little :D. Otherwise I've got maybe 15-20 bottles that are either open or will be open eventually. I couldn't not have open bottles!
 
In an effort to at least try and learn to like whisky, I've done a bit of research and have read that this is a pretty decent "beginner" whisky

When I got home I gave it a try, and sweet Jesus it was not nice :lol: tried it neat and with a bit of water, and also tried the "take a deep sniff and look past the alcohol" thing that @Woodsy told me.

I'm sure I'll learn to love it in time, just need to drink it more I think :D
 
Nah, you'll never learn to love that stuff. You'll barely manage a few before you give up. Not a fan of glenfiddich not a fan at all.
