Simply amazing place, and their scotch doesn't have a strong peat flavour, which is how I like it.

Just finished off my bottle of Lagavulin out on the deck. Moved inside, and have changed it up a bit.
Just cracked a fresh bottle of Blanton's Single Cask. Waiting to see what turns up Tuesday then I'll go from there. The wee (200ml) bottles of Lagavulin are on sale for $24.95.
your absolutly right , I'm guessing those that can tell 12 from 15 would have a very refined palate. Make the jump to 20-25yrs and you see a big change, biggest is the prices.......
I'm happy whiskey became a bit more popular, the selection in the LCBO is actually pretty good if you live near a decent store.

Merry Christmas everyone.
Had some of this last weekend as well as some of their Cask Strength (too hot for me).

Nothing better than sitting in your fav comfy chair in the man cave with a glass of single malt Scotch to help dismiss those long/hard work days or after a nice summers night ride. ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Those of you putting ice in your Scotch are ruining a good thing imo, just a drop or two of water is all that is needed.
www.ForPeatSake.com is great for reviews

I thought that way for a long time, and my Scottish relatives would crap a haggis if you dropped ice in a drink. But I've come to the conclusion its an indulgence and a treat and you should enjoy that treat however you wish.
Some girls like to be spanked before a good buggering, who am I to judge?
On my ToDo list is a ride to north of Kingston where there is a spring with really good tasting water. Bring home a bucket full of the stuff and enjoy a relaxing bit of the good stuff with it.

half way through a bottle of single malt lowland, goes down smooth.

White & Mackays replication of Mackinleys scotch that Shackleton left under the ice 100 yrs ago is really hard top get hold of, they made a lot of it, and the master blender claims it tastes the same. A friend got a dram at a whiskey club in NY and said it was unremarkable , but the nostalgia and anybody familiar with Shackleton story would get a kick out of it was worth it.
That box wouldn't smell bad, there's no composting at -45.

I have sampled a few scotches. Save some money, and buy canadian whiskey. One thing canada does right, is make whiskey.
Thats the guy!
The photographer on that trip was a raging alcoholic, they probably buried the stuff to keep him out. Shackleton was an *** and a complete horndog in real life, but emerged from history as a genious leader. He lost nobody on that expedition, but should have lost everybody. Navigating the southern ocean and finding a remote whaling station and bringing back help after 600 miles in an open boat (think needle in haystack), he should have been shot for the mismanagemnet of the expedition but turning disaster into a hero story made him a legend.
