I'm tempted by Bowmore 15 for 40 quid on Amazon. Any fans? You'll be lucky! They've just stopped non-essential deliveries. Maybe it'll show as groceries.... It is essential, we need whisky now and lots of it. |

That would be a bridge too far and an offence to civilised society.
And there will be hell to pay if they don't deliver my Blu-ray tomorrow ...
Actually from what I read they are delivering as usual but have stopped the usual flow of non-essential goods from 3rd party sellers to their warehouses.

Social media are always advising us to keep ones spirits up, so I took that advice and courtesy of Ocardo today.  bb |

Glendronnach 12 - epic fail! Imagine a 'Werther's Original' whisky - sickly sweet caramel, butter and toffee syrup. Well that's what this is and it isn't subtle. Yuck!!! Disappointing much, as I had been meaning to try this for so long. Maybe it will grow on me but I doubt.   |

Ha, yes sorry, perhaps I should clarify as not wanting to demean your manliness …  My mrs likes a ‘lighter floral citrus style’ of whisky, particularly Speyside so this could go down well. |

Maybe it will grow on me but I doubt. bummer Jules ..always disappointing where straying away from the dark side might result in an expencive bottle of southern comfort, fine dividing line with these lighter Spey single malts without peat or heavy barrel maturation in play. I find something like the Glenlivet 15 years to be a pretty safe n complex dram without licking a block of peat |

I very much enjoyed my first bottle of Revival, I now have a second bottle waiting for me to open it. In the meantime I have a Glendronach Parliament 21 to finish... it's good but not as characterful as Revival 15.

A lovely sippin whisky this one, the complexity imparted from the double barrel maturation nicely present on the palate.  subaru impreza 0 60 time |

Balvenie 12 year old is very sippable.

Balvenie 12 year old is very sippable. By un-lucky-hap too many Ocado whisky aficionados seem to concur, currently showing OUT OF STOCK grrrrrrrr. |
