Ooh, you give malt allowances?
Depends on your preference. We currently have Linkwood,
Aberlour, Bowmore, Laphroaig, and chill-filtered Highland Park.
There might even be some Bruichladdich or Bunnahabhain
hiding in a corner somewhere...
If your taste is for Glenmorangie, or Glenfiddich, you won't
find it at this address. ;-)
I can't afford a decent malt these days, but when I could, it was
Glenfarclas. Of those you mention, I only know Laphroaig.
Bowmore, Bruichladdich, Bunnahabhain, and Laphroaig are
all Islay malts. From Speyside comes Aberlour and (since it's
made in Elgin) I suppose Linkwood is also technically "Speyside",
but I wouldn't argue about it. Highland Park comes from Orkney.
I was 'taught' to drink whisky one night, passing through, in Glasgow.
An hotel bar.....the longest I've ever seen with more optics than I could
count!
I shop for our "supplies" in Fife. There's a wee shop in Cupar,
with an amazing selection. I'll see what they have, that might
suit you, next week. I'm owe you a favour, after all! The parcel
arrived safely, and in time for the "grand opening"! ;-)
And don't forget the wonderful Lagavulin ... also from Islay. As am I
.... and am afraid to confess in public that I prefer Orkney's produce.
Oh the shame! I daren't tell my mother :-))
