Thanks. I saw a Black Nikka at a small bottle store somewhere close to Rosebank. Will ask a friend to go buy it.

That's strange. What browser are you using?

Try: www.whiskymag.co.za/product-tag/nikka/

Both links work in Edge and Firefox for me.

It's the company blocking me from looking at whisky stories. Thanks for that. I've got the Red, would like to have that black for the collection.

Aah OK, that makes sense. Good luck, I hope you can get hold of it.

I know it's in that shop...... just to get my lady friend to go and buy it. (And not drink it before i go to Jhb again).

Very nice indeed.

I decided against that one...was worried that this blend may not have the flavor legs the withstand that huge ABV.

I'm most probably wrong....let me know when you taste it.

I only bought this one because the online reviews have been pretty positive.

The last Smokehead I bought was when it was first introduced in SA and was a lot cheaper than Peat Monster at the time. I was suitably impressed. Not sure how it is now, however.

Ooh can't wait to try these. Can't believe there are 3 different expressions! My poor wallet.

I know the feeling, with the exception of the Pinotage cask I've got minimum 2 bottles of each Three Ships/JSD/Bains releases, including the 2010 single malt release. I'm going to have to settle with 1 bottle of each of these.
