Looks nice, Shaun! Could you describe the flavour? I might be interested in getting a bottle myself. I like something nice and smooth (such as most sherry cask whiskies), and not too peaty or smoky :)

Stay away from the peaty and smoky Ardbeg then!
This looks interesting though - https://www.masterofmalt.com/whiskie...-whisky/?srh=1
Matured entirely is Sherry casks.
Ah I see.... Thought as much, as you can usually tell from the pale colour. Laphroaig is the same, and not my thing either.Quote:

Yes, exactly. I'm more of a Balvenie kind of guy. I bought a bottle of Lagavullin, which is nice, but a little too smoky for my tastes. I like a nice rich, smooth whisky, with a touch of sherry-like sweetness, which slips down nicely - and those ones are usually a deep amber colour :)Quote:
