What are you drinking tonight.

A $1 can of Lime-A-Rita.
I have no shame.

Laphroaig. Finishing off some bottles as I currently have 9 unopened in the 'whisky wardrobe' (along with 5 opened)!

Damn the Amazon Xmas booze deals!

You need to know that Single Malt is highly volatile and will evaporate when opened so my suggestion is do not delay "sup them up" before you just have the aroma :cool:
However as a very rich owner of 9 unopened Malts perhaps you can afford to live with the ullage ;-) as a Retiree on a pension I can only dream :cool: Enjoy .
 
As an aside I have had the privilege to actually spend time in the "Glen of the Deer" drank the water ,bathed in the water, peed in the water,the Fiddich burn flowed through the Glen and on to the Spey ,many happy memories of my days in Glenfiddich with my best mate Jim my Dad and Eddie the Gamekeeper.

Glen Moray Classic single Malt, young and sweet and only £17 in Morrisons!

Now £15! how could you resist a pleasant Single Malt for that price? To quote the Whisky Exchange
"Glen Moray Classic is the distillery's entry level single malt, aged for an average of seven years in ex-bourbon casks, of which a high percentage are first fill - easy drinking, honeyed and excellent value."
 
Hiya,

It's possible some of you may not be that familiar with ginger ale and also more than likely there will have been some easy to spot differences with some y'all have sampled.

After trying a fair number, the brand I like most is still Canada Dry. Nothing fancy and no odd designer notes added. Very refreshing!

Give it a try sometime, rather than what must be mostly strange 'interpretations' of that drink which passes for ginger ale over there. Man, I can only imagine what's done to that poor helpless flavor. Plus it's Mormon safe, since there's no caffeine in the mix.

Mart, on this I can quite clearly state, to use a Chicago-ism 'ya don't naw nuthin'.

For chrissakes you probably ruin it by putting ice cream on top of it or something similar!

Now Canada Dry ain't bad to be fair. It's a solid 6 out of 10.

But compared with something like this wee beastie, well, it's like the difference between a Pinto and Mustang.

Avast, you string bean shaped landlubber,

Chicago lingo would be more like "Ya doe know nuttin". Anyone saying it your way would be figured for a Limey or worse.

Listen here pard, using some vanilla ice cream and root beer inna root beer float (Black Cow) is one the THE best combos you will find in life. Seriously, it's pretty damn good.

Not talking about ginger beers here, of which everyone has their interpretation. Nope, just regular old ginger ale. Ones like Canfield and Vernors and Shweppes and the like. Easy to find items. Tough to beat out Canada Dry.

Pipples till later,

Mart

I didn't realise you were one of 'dem canasewers' of ginger based beverages.

I haven't had that much ginger ale to be honest. I don't tend to drink 'cooking' scotch which is what my parents used to pair it with. I had a few swigs of their bottles of Canada Dry and thought it was OK.

Just for you I will track down one of these in the local Sainsburys and report back.
