I’ve got a Springbank 12 from years ago and refuse to drink it all it’s that good. Ardnamurchan reminds me of it somewhat.

Just had some whisky chocolate, not sure if that counts. It was very, very nice.
Although regular Crown Royal is akin to stagnant pond water, their cocolate and salted caramel versions aren't horrific; the less said about the Apple and Peach versions, the better.
Rum …. And lots of it …
New years Eve, it’s a tradition. But stupidly registered for a 25k trail race at 1am this morningI see your promise not to drink lasted a long time

A 16 year old Lagavullin chocolate liqueur, very nice.

I made a blackberry brandy, very nice, gone over Christmas. Now made a blackberry rum with the left over blackberries. I'm intrigued how it's going to turn out in the coming months.….proper rum, not that spiced nonsense

Whilst scrambling under the stairs for a bag of laces, as you do, I came across a bottle of sloe gin. I noticed that it was from October 2022, and purely in the name of scientific research, and to see if it actually improves with age, I decided to have a shot. Dear reader, it does, it's absolutely magnificent. The moral of these musings ? Make many bottles this year so some will be left for future years, and the same for Damson gin, which I prefer.

Because of work, I have visited countless distillery's and breweries. Ironically I don’t drink spitits and every whisky I’ve ever tasted is exactly the same.
I do enjoy a good bourbon, though. Or my “had too much beer” go to is usually a Southern Comfort.

Categorically false outside your personal spere of experience. Laphroing tastes nothing like Glenmorangie other than the alcohol burn non-whiskey drinkers complain about. But they're the folks that talk about how "smooth" a whiskey is, which is nothing to do with taste.

Funnily enough, they all taste pretty much the same to me.
Johnnie Walker Princes Street and McConnells in Belfast are worth a visit though, purely from an experiential point of view.
