I weighed up getting the Royal Salute last month before choosing the Oban Distillers Edition. Very curious...

That Oban Distillers Edition is fab.

Had a bottle 10 years ago.

Absolutely loving it. Pure class. Summer here at the moment so am drinking more refreshing Vodka to change things up a little.
But am already thinking to where does one go in a quality purchase after the Oban?

More Oban.

Then Bunnahabhain.

Bunnahabhain? Which ones are the finest?

The 18 is excellent, but the 12 is widely available and very good.

Although Islay, it's not peated.

I was given this to read for Christmas..

Bunnahabhain 18 : " On the nose, this whiskey begins with toffee and vanilla, through which clear hints of green banana, orange, and chocolate-covered cherry are soon detected. On the palate, the whiskey is creamy and mouth-coating. The finish is slightly astringent"

Mmmmmmmm

Thanks Groucho. The 12 will be a good introduction to the Bunnahabhain family or me I think

The 12 is excellent. Any Bunnahabhain is excellent.

I like the book's comments as well. Lock it in. My next to try.
There is something very romantic visualising you guys during a cold UK winter evening sipping on a fine whiskey in front of a fire place.....

I would second Groucho's Bunnahabhain recommendation.

Springbank is another I would recommend seeking out.
