I figured I'd list out some of the better quality spirits I have around and hopefully I'll keep up this list, add tasting notes, etc. as I continue on my journey of discovery with this stuff. A very tasty journey indeed!

ReplyDeleteI've had a couple of sips this year lol!
DeleteLooks like we share the same taste in Whiskey. Islay whiskey is my favourite too. Great stuff!
ReplyDeleteKarl
It's nice to have the other stuff just to change it up every now and then but yup, I'll always go back to the Islay.
DeleteJason, that's a very impressive list mate, you have all of these right now? It's almost an obsession. I think I have a bit of maturing to do yet. I have a bottle of Glenkinchie, Glenmorangie and Famous Grouse (won in a raffle).
ReplyDeletewhat's the best way to drink whisky?
I usually mix with something which seems a bit of a waste when you're talking about single malts
Cheers
Thanks Rob. Yep either I have them currently in my collection or I've finished them off. It's nice to have an assortment to choose from and the tastes are so varied that they're very unique delight's.
DeleteThe best way that I like whisky is with just a drop of water if it's about 40% and maybe up to a teaspoon's worth getting towards the cask strength stuff. It helps release more of the flavour. A really good resource that I've used to help guide me is Ralfy at Ralfy.com on YouTube and his own site. Very knowledgeable and the spirits he samples typically won't break the bank. Glenmorangie is a great spirit that both Gail and I enjoy.
Thanks Jason , I'll give it a try and pop over to check out Ralfy
DeleteCool that Gail likes Whisky too!!
Cheers Rob
I tried. I tried. Just not my thing. BUT, if your ever need recommendations for a beer, hit me up :)
ReplyDeleteWill do man. There's many, many flavours to whisky and there might just be one out there for you.
