Amarone is my current favourite, though a good Barolo is up there. Just ordered a case of Rosso di Montalcino - just as good as the Brunello I reckon.
I save the 5 quid stuff for guests like the 8 cans of fosters I’ve had in the Fridge for 2 years ha ha ha
@hyperdildo I needed a strong drink after a bit of family emotional trauma and picked this up in M&S last night, at £25/bottle I thought it was excellent value, a nice starter one and readily available. 12 year old Speyside single malt without the £££ uplift to cover big brands marketing costs.
Thanks Paul. I hope the family trauma was nothing too bad mate that couldn’t be soaked up with a drink
Just picked this up in ASDA £35 looks interesting . If your looking for last minute pressies or party drink quite a few reduced passable bottles for sale ,Ardmore Bowmore,Genlivet
Currently still suffering from a surfeit of Powers last night. Irish weddings, like funerals, are awash with the stuff.
Nice personalised as well. Looks like there’s a list to starboard there, you on the boat or is you house built on the side of a hill
It was my old man's Millennium whisky - he bought a barrel (had a slight issue with the drink bless him) and since I share his name I can pass it off as mine The list to starboard is actually the glasses have odd shaped bottoms so they roll on a flat surface - well if you are going to get 'wobbly'....
Thanks for the advice, I drunk a bottle of talisker dark storm yesterday over the course of the whole day and thoroughly enjoyed it. My old man would have been proud
Me and a couple of mates visited the Talisker distillery during a bike tour many years ago, we pitched up in wet leathers in the afternoon and the nice lady informed us that we'd unfortunately missed the last tour - as we looked at each other forlornly she said - of course you can still have a free dram - BINGO
