Whisk(e)y Lovers thread(II)

Bought a bottle of Green Spot Irish Wiskey after a recommendation, will try tonight and give some feedback.
 
Good whiskey. Try the redbreast after if you haven't yet.

Yeah heard readbreat is the amazing never tried it, was R 1500 so bought a bottle of Green Spot and Jameson instead. See its on sale at Norman Goodfellas so will buy a bottle next month.
 
Very nice! Where did you order it from? I've had some 13.1 IIRC - really delicious. Just don't expect to taste peat in any whisky thereafter for a couple of hours, you won't taste it at all as this will completely wonderfully overwhelm your palette.

there was a special at Mothercity Liquor 2 weeks ago - 10% off on all Islays, got it for R 4,320.00
 
Anyone been able to source the Octomore Polyphonic locally?

Andrew from Friday Whisky Mafia picked up one at the Feis Ile. It's going into a tasting later this year, only 14 spots of 50ml each though. I'm looking forward to trying it.
 
Anybody order from masterofmalt and the like recently? I see Mighty gave some good info around costs, but not sure how relevant it still is 4 years later..

The calculations are more or less the same, just some of the costs have increased (DHL probably went up, exchange rate etc.) and sometimes you will get a department of fisheries charge too.

It's generally a good idea to try form an order with other people to reduce the per bottle cost unless you can afford to order 6 yourself.

I haven't ordered from MoM in a while but it should be fine, know guys who ordered off whisky exchange recently.
