Has anyone here tried the Auchentoshan single malt?

I haven't tried it, but from the feedback I have seen here sounds like it's worth skipping

Cheers, for that price I would rather stick to the tried and tested Bulleit Bourbon or Jameson select reserve!

Where you at? I'd be interested in the Ardbeg.

Im near Melrose Arch. The Smoker version I'm actually open to negotiations now. I want offers on the Smoker version with the Smoker. Around R700 and someone can take it. I initially thought is was worth more because of the Smoker.

The Johnny Blue ill get rid of for around R1600

You're going to have a real hard time selling that JW Blue, even at that price. There are far better (blended) whiskies available at a fraction of the price

What a cracker. I'm not usually a JW fan but this one's somewhat special. Super creamy, vanilla, butterscotch and sweet.

 

[dualmeister]

A mate of mine is a JW fan. He seems to be missing that one.

I’m pleasantly surprised with this cheapy.

Wife picked this up from a second hand store. Perfect condition and unopened although the box is a bit raggedy. Not everyone’s cup of tea but nice to have on a shelf in our whisky room.

Also really enjoy it and got it on a blitzingly good Takelot deal at R235

Very nice. That grouse is superb.

Very nice. That grouse is superb.

The Naked Grouse special at Makro is a must. Smoky grouse for peatheads is worth a try. The 12 and 18 malt grouse r good at normal prices but the 30 not so much, too woody.

So cheap and quick and easy...directly from Waterford...really looking forward to these and will open them soon:
