    I'm beginning to see the wisdom in that as i have recently been enjoying Laphroaig whisky.

    After tasting this amazing dram it's very hard to go back to cheaper blends.

    While I am still hard pressed to decide whether it's better than Ardbeg (I'll compare again when the Ardbeg I've ordered comes), it really is amazing stuff.

    Kilts and whisky go togever likke peahces and creem, so as Isit here are testout thiiiiis nce wisky I can say thay Lafroig have duna guud jobb.

    Only kidding

    Oh! Graham,
    what will I do with you. I feel partly resposible for this . Should I have told you in such graphic terms how much I love Ardbeg "Very Young" ?

    It's not a case of which is better Laphroaig or Ardbeg they compliment each other. "I'm saving for a Laphroaig 1/4 cask for Christmas. Hic!

    Look at this way Graham, good things come to those that wait. Of course the good stuff is well worth the wait and ever more appreciated once you have tried the others.

    You know, I've yet to develop this reverence for single malt. I'm not sure why, it's the sort of thing I ought to enjoy.

    Now, good, stout ale, that's different!!!

    My fiance's parents called from Scotland last week and asked if there was anything we wanted. Our reply was a few bottles of Arbeg. The next phone call said that they had some for us. I cannot wait.

    Graham. You already tasted Talisker? Another of my favourites. The only single malt from the Isle of Skye! I try to recommend it and Laph to everyone because they are both equally astounding

    Oh, in a matter of fact... I need to book ticket for the christmas cruise to get both a bottle for tax free

    As strong as Laphroaig...or even stronger...an explosion of taste, seaweed, salty peat...not for the fainthearted :mrgreen:

    Cheers!

    Alan. don't worry about not being head over heels about whisky, stay as you are - it's cheaper!

    Ackwell, yes I love Talisker too.

    Robin, I'd like to try lagavulin, they're close to laphroaig and Ardbeg on Islay,

    so many whiskies, so little money!!!:-D
