thefensarefarbutistillgo 2,480 Posted October 19, 2021 Report Share Posted October 19, 2021 I’ve put this on before but this is really good stuff, think you can get it for about £25 when it’s on offer Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sweet and really smooth, I use to drink a lot of Jameson’s, I got a bottle of Jameson’s soon after I finished that and it was rough compared to that, only thing with drinking these good whiskeys is you soon get an expensive pallet and don’t want to go back to the cheap stuff 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It's smooth, mellow, didn't smell great but that doesn't matter, the box says exotic citrus , a little maybe , I'd say it's better than Glenfiddich 12 , very good , highly recommended. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

There's quite a few affordable ones like the co-op 12 I just supped, glen moray is okay for the money, but I'd say co-op is winning for a £20 bottle...the only whisky I'd prefer is an aberlour tbh...

Do you drink whiskey neat or with some ice, I always prefer it with some ice just to take the edge off Quote Link to post Share on other sites

No water no ice...slightly warm. If I can't drink it like that I'd sooner stick a coke or ginger ale in it..... 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ever tried this ? It’s one of the best in my opinion Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Borr 4,457 Posted October 19, 2021 Report Share Posted October 19, 2021 Not tried it , it looks familiar, how much? and would it be a special occasions whisky ? I like most smooth ones, can't do anything peaty or overly harsh or citrus , prefer caramel mellow. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

When it’s on offer in Tesco I think it’s about £26 when it’s usually £42, I’m the same can’t stand peaty ones, this one is discribed as having notes of toffee apple, really nice, you will definitely like it from what you say Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Borr 4,457 Posted October 20, 2021 Report Share Posted October 20, 2021 Did the whisky tour at penderyn , was quite interesting, it was a warm up for a stag do but half of them went straight to Cardiff and were sozzled by the time we got there lol. Penderyn were using mash from brains beer I believe, only thing that put me off the brand was they were buying gin etc from Birmingham and sticking the Welsh brand on it. Interesting fact, each year a barrel loses alcohol , known as 'angels share' and they get a tax rebate for it lol. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
