Well living in Dublin is probably a excuse.
I've only recently started drinking whisky again, since moving to Ireland. So am getting a taste for the smooth Irish food whiskeys.
I don't know very much about scotch but not a fan of the peated or smokey flavours.
So would need some guidance and sampling to get an idea of what I liked.

Stay away from islay(in general).. most others are mostly not, but some are.. check with master of malt for their rightups etc. you wont go too far wrong. Its rare for speysiders but there are some .. Highland has some.. the demarkation from highland and speyside isnt clear geographically tho.
Try powers john's lane if your into irish. its rather good
Another opening.. Wolfburn Langskip.
This comes out at 58% and fairly young.. Maybe 5 Yr old. Fruits, nuts, ginger, nutmeg, pepper and a shake of brown sugar.. Maybe Toffee too. Its fairly warm and longlasting finish is aided by a teaspoon of water.
A fabulous whisky this. I've had this before and will get it again. Top class

One of the great non sherried whiskies, filled with honey, vanilla and butter shortbread. Great price for a top quality whisky. Nice oily mouthfeel and medium finish leaving you wanting more.
A couple for the shelf.. [emoji23]
Mortlach 15 from Gordon and macphail, and Port Dundas 14 from douglas laing.
Freed up others for drinkipoos https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...1d961bf3eb.jpg

Never heard of it, but the reviews seem quite favourable. I'll be opening it sometime in the new year.
Last post for whisky this year.

.Hazelburn 10 from the Springbank distillery in Campbeltown. Owned by the great Mitchell and Co.
Everything they do is snapped up as fast as they make it.
Delicious stuff.
