    Sheep Dip!

    Perhaps disparaged by single-malt purists, but this is one tasty whisky (and my current favorite):

    I've tried it, and it's not too bad. Not likely to displace Balvenie single cask on my list of favorites, but certainly a good whisky. Bringing some up to Oswego with you?
    I checked out the link for Pig's Nose as well. I've seen it on the shelf, but hadn't heard much about it. Think I'll have to pick up a bottle and give it a try.
    All skill and effort is to no avail when an angel pees down your drones.

    I have noticed that the weirdest name most of the time has the best taste.

    Sheep's Dip, haven't had the pleasure but I've heard of it. I started drinking years ago after meeting a Professor from the University of Edinborgh and he started me on Famous Grouse--a wonderful blend and cheap. I have since then graduated to many fine single malts. I keep quite an array in my "medicine cabinet." Every year I have a Scotch Tasting party and about half attend kilted. A great time to experience scotchs from all over the different regions.

    When we used to have a flock of sheep, we, well, er, um, used to buy a lot of "sheep dip" on the farm account. Accountants here, may understand what I am getting at!
