    I refer the honourable gentleman to the reply I gave earlier.

    Such "mixers" are best reserved for your bog standard blends that cannot stand on their own.

    I am sure that your own efforts to Drink Canada Dry are going well, let me know when you are emptying the cellars in Iqaluit, Nunavut whilst the local populace admire the rubber chicken.

    Yes and even last time I bought it in Edinburgh (Romanes and Patterson) it was only £29.99 so someone is trying to cash in if it cost you £40.00!

    Re: An Unexpected Pleasant Surpise

    I discovered some quarter cask in our local store yesterday and picked up a couple of bottles. It was C$72, which was a few dollars less than the 10 years old. I look forward to trying it over the holidays.

    Re: An Unexpected Pleasant Surpise

    I am sure you will really enjoy it - quarter cask is not subject to the same rules of aging as more of it is in contact with the wood.

    It knocks the spots off the 10 yo, delightful as that is.
