Blimey Paddy, you look like Mr Baxter out of Grange Hill with that beard!

Anyway, never mind that, which malt you got?

Giving your age away there Mikey!! I've had everything from Fred West to Ant Middleton!!!! So that's not a bad association chum, haha.
PS- It's a Bowmore currently.

You look like your mid E&E selection.

Scotland. I might just move there. Bye the way my name is Hugh. So it's like ya. Slam dunk.

 

[Hobbstc]

And which single malt is it?

 

[Micawber]

You youngsters and your Grange Hill, far too PC and modern for old f@rts like me brought up on classics such as "Whacko", "Till Death Do US Part" and "Please Sir"

 

[Spitfireace]

Steve you wanker you.

 

[Spitfireace]

Just teasing. All due respect.

might be Glenfiddich

I’m a Lagavulin guy myself.

Old Pulteney is my Scotch of choice, although I haven't had it in a few years.

 

[CBI]

things have not really changed on the forum in the last decade or so. Lots of great jackets but at the end of the day, originals and Good Wears are about all that counts!

(not trying to start yet another who is the best maker thread but I mean, really?)

Now you’re talking! I’ve gotten heavily into the peaty island malts, and that’s one of my favourites, although I don’t currently have any in. Ardbeg or Talisker Skye are top of the list at the moment, and I’ve got a Bowmore too.
Steve, I remember all of those. Whacko-now that was a moustache.

 

[Spitfireace]

Nuff said lads.

 

[Spitfireace]

The Aberlour is fabulous.

 

[Smithy]

Ardbeg

Nice call Mikey. My absolute favourite, although I have a soft spot for all the Islays.

I won a square foot of land at the Laphroaig distillery with a competition they had in the late 90s. If I visit I get a free bottle, a pair of gumboots and some poor sap has to take me out to show me the patch of dirt, which I have a sneaking suspicion will be the same patch any other bugger gets shown if he or she turns up.

I like Speysides in the warmer weather but you can't beat a good Islay with a roaring fire and if it's pissing down outside.

Bowmore
