I'm enjoying the Glenmorangie Lasanta.
Certainly worth trying at the current Amazon £35 price.
It really does taste like a Glenmorangie with a sherry finish, no more, no less. So not an out and out sherry bomb, but a very pleasant dram.

Elvis Juice. A punchy American style IPA infused with grapefruit. From what I can tell whole grapefruits are chopped into the brew pith and all. Best served ice cold.
If you don’t like hoppy ale then forget about it. [emoji14]
decent whisky Julian. I quite like it. The port version(quina ruban) is a nice version although a bit more ported than lasanta is sherried. Usually dearer too. Not a guzzler or quaffer whisky but a nice dramQuote:

I was hoping to pick something up for the festivities, but it won't look like that! :eyebrows:
I have contributed to this thread before, and probably will do so again.
Over the summer in the States I had some beer with enticing names - such as Moose Drool. Wasn't as good as Old Engine Oil though.
In the meantime, i've noticed that if I don't drink so much - don't expect to have a drink every day - that my weight has gone down a bit, and my BMI has improved. I no longer automatically keep up with my friends who drink wine with meals when we go out - just to be sociable. Trying to tell them that cutting back on G&Ts each night, plus wine with every meal does seem like hard work though. Some people - even supposedly clever ones - just ignore the evidence.
I should also do more exercise, but I've not got round to that yet.
My recommendation for the day is to cut back and stay healthy - but enjoy drinking when it seems appropriate.
Where from, daftee? Should be good :)Quote:

Will report back on what it's like when we open a bottle later for dinner :cheers:

Well I've had a bugger of a cold/cough all week and Covonia and paracetamol have done diddly, so it's a few large Jamesons for me tonight:)
