    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!

    ...who's enjoying a glass of Lagavulin as we speak

    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

    Lagavulin is damn cheap....err...well...it's not, but when you enjoy it (close your eyes when you do the nosing) it's like a small vacation to Islay itself :mrgreen:

    Robin, I was sipping my dram last night with eyes closed, just imagining myself standing tall on my 12" by 12" lease on Islay, (no room to sit doon) with the seaspray in my nostrils and the cool wind about my knees, kilt flapping in the breeze and the sound of the gulls above.

    Yes, the price is cheap.
