Single malts

[Groucho]

Just to let lads in the Merseyside area know, in Liverpool One there's one of those Harvey Nichols food shops. They're doing a few malts, one of them being Oban, Distillers Choice.

I've had one of these before, and it's indescribably good. I advise you to get one, I've got mine in for when I finish work on Sunday afternoon.

It was pricey like. £56 I think. But very worth it I might add.

A quick search says thats about the right price, I don't mind paying as long as they're not ripping me off

Just letting people in the north west know, Booths in Knutsford have many offers on malts this week, just picked up an Old Pultney and a Highland Park for £20 each.

That's worth a short trip just past Ikea.

If it's a blend you're after, go for Black Bottle if you can find it. Otherwise, Famous Grouse is ok.

A good starting point in single malts Glenmorangie. Swerve the JD mate.

Pick up a bottle of Talisker then. It's good, a bit peaty, with the bonus of being available in most supermarkets, on offer a lot of the time too.

Anyone ever had a whisky called Paddy's? It's a triple distilled Irish whisky, bought it for my dad but he prefers single malts so not sure.
