Some cracking stuff in there, gave us lots of tastes too, so came away with a nice sherried drop (the Glenrothes) and a young (only 15 year old haha) , sprightly and very green apple tasting peated bottle of Springbank (which I've supped already) haha :D
It was this one: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Springbank-...E3ENVS1HH0V2E2

You have an amazing selection , I am ruined for ever on Scotch , in 1992 I could get a bottle of Mc Callan 21 year single malt for $75.00 a bottle or $7.00 a shot. Now for the same bottle $1,000 !!!Quote:

Scotch prices just exploded here 15 years ago and never came back down.
I used to treat my self to a bottle once every month or two . Lincoln Hill Golf course had very good bottle prices.
I will drink Johnny Walkers Black label once in a while but it is just not the same.
There is nothing better than a really mellow scotch .
Been a lovely day.. Mate gave me over a lager, so first beer in about 2/3 years

Lol - he's got sophisticated tastes, eh?:D;)
Still the gesture was nice. Enjoy!:cool:
Marco.
He doesn't usually drink beer much, as he is a wine guy [emoji23]
Bucky, but it's not available. Yay!
Lol - it shows! He could've brought round a nice bottle of wine then instead... Must've thought you wouldn't have been cultured enough to appreciate it?:D;)Quote:

I guess, as ever, it boils down to whether you drink lager (Pils) to savour and enjoy it, in moderation, and therefore appreciate it when it's done well, or simply neck it to get pished, in which case quantity (and price) will always outweigh quality.
