What whiskey/whisky are you drinking? 🥃

I'm trying to reduce my overall alcohol intake. With the long drink I'm down to between 14 and 21 units a week now.

Bought a bottle of this single malt in Lidl yesterday for £17-99.
Just opened it and it is good value
Lidl tasting notes say "Light, elegant and refined with attractive nuances of vanilla honey, cinnamon, creamy caramel and coffee latte. These enticing aromas are reflected on the palate with rewarding silky flavours of roasted almonds, sun dried raisins, moist banana cake and maple syrup."
I want ti find one that says ‘tastes of whisky’.
Had some of this last night - just the one glass
and had some of this Sat eve.
That was a bloody bargain, just €40 at Delhi airport

Good taste Sir! I love a Balvenie, and the Singleton is very moorish
I got this from Aldi this afternoon £17.99.
Not bad for the money I have to say.

Sacrilege, even for cheap whisky - get some stones green ginger wine and mix it 50:50 and stop being a tart
Have you corrected this error of judgement yet, I await your report
I've put the Famous Grouse to the back of the cupboard and I've started the new malt. Very good it is too for the price.Have you corrected this error of judgement yet, I await your report
I couldn't taste any of the flavours that it mentioned on the label but I have to say I don't think I've got the best palate.
Go buy some Stones Green Ginger wine and mix it 50:50 with the Grouse
Turps will work the same with cooking whiskiesGo buy some Stones Green Ginger wine and mix it 50:50 with the Grouse

And not as gay sounding as ginger wine
Which equally isn't as gay sounding as Dry Ginger Ale or water
I'm not old enough to know that
I'll stick with a splash (a desert spoon in about a quadruple measure) of water thanks - I drink nice whiskey, I want to bring out the flavour, not change it.

Is it good to add water to whiskey?
With a Splash of Water: Adding a small amount of water is for Women during the War and waters down the flavours and aromas of the scotch, ruining the tasting experience. This is often recommended for modern day woolly woofters,

Ha, says the ginger kid
I totally understand what you mean, I got sick on Raspberry icecream when I was 12, i am now 53 and the smell still turns my stomach!Last year in Donegal Dox and sharper or maybe John were drinking some nice whiskey I can't even be within smelling distance but my stomach turns due to poisoning myself 30 years ago.. It's mad how strong my stomach response is even after all these years
