Use it to make an "Old Fashioned" cocktail....you'll be out of Bourbon in no time. It's addictive....and delicious.

Nice. My wife and I have been having Sunday cocktails for the last few weeks and this has been on the radar although we haven't tried it yet. I'll promote it to the head of the queue and have this Sunday.

Think I'll crack my Buffalo Trace tonight and replace it with the gift set at Makro which includes two glasses.

I've found my new guilty pleasure. 3 or 4 ice cubes in a whisky glass (a tumbler, not a snifter/tasting/nosing glass) and enough Maker's 46 to almost cover the cubes. Let it sit for a minute or two (until condensation starts to build on the glass) and enjoy. Goodness me it's a good drink!
while we're confessing whisky sins ... I'll confess I've tried, and enjoyed, a smokey cokey

just requires one to not overthink the Ardbeg sacrifice it takes to make one

If you are in Cape Town, Smous.online has a good Loch Lomond deal with free shipping to most parts. They will also ship to the rest of the country. Shipping was really fast.

Interesting :thumbsup:


Buitenverwachting Single Malt Scotch Whisky is on the shelf and ready for purchasing!

Made using our red wine barrels, the whisky was distilled, aged for 6 years and bottled in Scotland by Loch Lomond Whiskies.

Order placed.
Used a relative address for free delivery as well.
Thanks :)

I found it similar to the inchmurrin range with a bit more wine influence in the background. Very drinkable IMHO.

I'm not sure I'd pay the full fair as there is lots of other things to choose from in the R650 price range (ardbeg 10 anyone?) but well worth it on the deal price.

I've got a bottle of the buitenverwachting single malt and couldn't really enjoy it.
I still have like 90% of it and might use for mixings. If someone would like to swap, DM.

I'm going to give the one to a relative for Christmas (one present done!) and keep the Buitenverwachting for my SA corner.

Was in the area so collected.
