I would wait close to his 18th birthday and then purchase a bottle that with a published in-cask date on his birth year - like the Glenfarclas Family Casks.

You'll get a much better whisky and not...

If I had a half-dozen Tun 1401's and a whack of Ardbeg like that I'd keep it under lock and key as well! That's the stuff dreams are made of.

Bought a little Ikea metal cabinet, goes well with the decor surrounding it and holds a modest amount of alcohol - not enough to get me into too much trouble, but enough to have a good selection.

The DE is quite different than the regular Lag 16. A lot of the smoke and complexity is hidden (not gone, but hidden) behind the sherry sweetness. Same goes for most of the DE's.

For a peaty...

Whiskies lose alcohol content over time as they are stored through evaporation. Wood isn't completely impenetrable, after all. Thus a young cask strength can be over 60% while the cask strength of...

I would be very curious as to her reaction had you poured her a dram of Ardbeg 10 or similar. :D

Interesting that she didn't like the Cragganmore. That was one of my first bottles of single malt...

Interesting that it's such a young crowd in here. I'm 31 now, I had been drinking Chivas 12 for years but didn't get into the single malts until about 2 years ago. Not interested in Chivas...

Your attempt at being a snob was a failure. That link is to 12 year, not 21 year.

The Whisky Bible entry is a good reference - a book worth having around!

"Scotch at its lightest" is a funny sales slogan to me. I guess it's meant as an introductory scotch whisky. 8 years is young for a scotch, usually they are 10+ years of aging.

Wrong way on the price scale!

I'd say Laph QC is already a very good price for what you're getting. Bowmore was my best suggestion, but I've never seen anything both that peaty and decent at a...

The suspense is killing me on trying some Uigeadail. I know it'll be up my alley, as I'm a big fan of Lagavulin 16, Ardbeg 10, and of course Talisker and Laphroaig's offerings (sipping on some...

Yep that sucks but as said, still enjoying life I see.

I put a vote in for something from The Balvenie collection. I have and enjoy the Cragganmore, but I prefer the bottle of Balvenie 14 year...
