JW Green is awesome but a bit expensive for me to justify it. I drink Laphroig for special and Chivas for regular.

Laphroig was my first foray into islay single malt. Loved it's intensity. By comparison Lagavulin 16 tasted flat and disappointing until a 3rd of the way into the bottle, by which time I started to appreciate it's subtlety and complexity. I was talking to a staff member at Dan Murphy and he said Laphroig is the most returned scotch in the store. First timers open it, talk a whiff of the powerful aroma and think something is wrong with it.I drink Laphroig for special
I did a blind test with a mate comparing the green and blue. I honestly couldn't tell the difference, and thought the green was the better. Although I'm hardly a scotch expert.Gold is the pick for me, can't explain why at all. I just like it more than all the others (inc blue).
Yeah, me either. I mean it was great. But to pay that amount of money I'd have to appreciate it a hell of a lot more than I did.Wow just checked the price. $600! With my guzzler palate I doubt I would have appreciated it.
Been doing a bite of travelling so picked up some nice bottles from duty free (not in Australia, no value at all here). 2 recommendations- Yamazaki 18, great Japanese drop.
Found a bottle of the Blavanie Tun batch 4 at duty free in Bali. turns out its very hard to find. Wow what a whisky, if you ever get the chance you must try it.
From what I've heard theres not THAT much saving in whiskey duty free compared to some other booze, that true?
How is this pronounced? I've always just said Islay, ie how it is spelt, but was in that prat bar Cookie in Melbourne last year and the Pommie barman who gave us a five minute history lesson (just serve it and STFU) pronounced it Ilah (like in old Auntie Ilah) Is this right?
Yes it is correct, hayseed.
Scotch must be from Scotland . Is this what you're meaning?
JD is Tennessee whiskey (most claim not bourbon as it's matured slightly differently and made out of Kentucky, but it's debateable), and Canadian Club is cheap swill from, well, Canada. No idea about Woodland.
