I like the comment who is drinking this stuff - premiership football players, that's who!

I cannot think that any bottle of booze could be worth that sort of money!   :o  Imagine clicking on the "add to shopping basket" in error.   :laugh:

Probably no better than the £7.95 stuff at Aldi.

I love Aldi's wines - and their prices!  ;D

Cheapskates!  ;D

I do like a nice malt whisky, but never pay much more than £30 for a bottle, and that's about once a year.  The rest of the time I slum it with Grants.  ;D

I don't like Grants but I'm happy to drink Bells which the Scots regard to be rubbish.   :blush:

I find Grants smoother than both Bells and Teachers.  The ones I've tried so far are Isle of Jura, Glenlivet, Glenfiddich, Glenmorangie, Dalwhinnie, Aberlour, all of which I enjoyed, and Bowmore, which tasted like petrol!   :ack:

I've tried the first four on your list but I can't say I'm into malts at all. Give me a Johnny Walker Black label any time!    :laugh:

That's actually one I've not tried.  But, as our tastes are so different, I'd probably hate it!  :laugh:

When I was in Calgary I was all about the different malts... these days I'll have what is ever in the cupboard... which generally is ouzo or brandy at the moment... I got my dad a Glenlivet 18 for Christmas which was really quite nice though.

Yes, I'd imagine that would be.

Ouzo and retsina.  Fond memories of Aegina in Greece.   :)x

Memories, or fuzzy moments?

At my age fuzzy moments is all I have.  :laugh:

I bet it's bloody horrible, but who would admit that after buying it?  ;D
