I grabbed the:
Kavalan Solist Rum WB and the Glen Scotia 11yo WB
I've had my eye on them for a while but it was just a bit too pricey. I think today's deals made it really worth while.
Bottega also sent some very interesting offerings today on their Irish Whiskey. In line with St. Patrick's Day.

Mixed reviews, but a lot say that it has a very thin finish.
That rum cask finish is highly rated apparently.

They're literally struggling to GIVE this swill away....
Could this be used as hand sanitizer? Could be a better use and cheaper than dischem

And obviously a lot more stock available as well....Could this be used as hand sanitizer? Could be a better use and cheaper than dischem

Please dont give people ideas. I can handle the lack of toilet paper and hand sanitizer but it will be the start of the Apocalypse when the shops run out of whiskey...

I'm pretty sure it was a joke...not "advice". Actually I'm 100% sure.
Laphroaig - 10 Year Old Islay Whisky, is this any good?
Looking for something peated on Takealot. I have vouchers that expire shortly. It has been a while since I did something like this.

Alternatively,
1. Kilchoman - Machir Bay Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky - 750ml, or
2. Bruichladdich - Classic Laddie Single Malt Whisky - 750ml
Bruichladdich, I know. Slightly pricier, but it is a good single malt, iirc.

Laphroaig is certainly up there when it comes to Peaty whisky. Some people can find it a bit ashy. I find the 10 to be a good combo of peat and slightly sweet.
The kilchoman machiar bay is a beauty. Not crazy peat levels but very very nice. (Also has a gift set option). The classic laddie is unpeated. If you want peat get the port Charlotte. TA also have that in a gift set (edit: out of stock)
Edit: also check these

Edit 2: three ships 10yo is also fairly Peaty and local is lekker.

Very nice indeed. Still waiting for my delivery here in CT...My WB sale takings (except for the Kilkerran which I’ve been eyeing for a while and they had 1 bottle in stock)...
Tempted to pull the trigger on this at Bottega, but that price tag is a bit hectic:
Bunnahabhain is an old favourite. Thanks for the heads up.Takealot.com: Online Shopping | SA's leading online store

The ONLY reason to ever move to Gauteng...
They still have some extremely good March specials running. Some high end bottles have between R400 - R 1000 discounted.
Now is the time to buy some of the really good stuff.
YEah they have some really great specials at the moment!
