Whisk(e)y Lovers thread(II)

Just be careful. Many have reported that their cork broke while opening as it's been on the shelf for years (possibly since 2013). I lay mine on it's side for a few days to moisten and managed to open without issues.

PS, I love it :love:
Thanks, will maybe do that
 
After all the hype and local "hysteria" re. this dram, I also went through major efforts to obtain a bottle.

I found it harsh and thin and extremely overrated IMHO...swapped it with another member.

Others seem to love it...
At the R360 a bottle I paid for it, I'm sure I will enjoy it

Up north only distilleries I'm interested in visiting are Deanston and Oban. Islay is a lot busier, Lagavulin, Laphroaig, Ardbeg, Port Charlotte, Bruichladdich then Springbank.

Anyone been over before? Any tips on distillery visits, is booking essential, best visiting times, other distilleries worth visiting etc. ?

Drop me a PM, got a friend who's been there a few times. He gives good advice.
 
Yep...see my post 551

Luckily I got one.

Working on Octomore12 the 10yo, that just became available now too...
I got the email this morning but found myself stuck in meetings and with 3 hours of sleep last night I completely missed it. Ah well.
