Has anyone on here got a recipe for wychwood blackwych
That's not just a brandy,
that's a fine Cognac.
Interesting that it's darker than the single malt Whisky.
Never noticed it before.
Is the Talisker in the peaty smokey style, or in the lighter GlenMorangie vein?
Never heard of this one before today--nothing amazing about it.
This one is probably a top-five, all-time favorite. It's a 12.7% beer from '18. Too expensive to have regularly, in my opinion.
Does Founders product make it your way, by any chance?
Yes, we like the good stuff. Talisker is sweet and smokey, one of my favourites, see…
Laphroaig when I’m in a more serious whisky mood (yep, got those too).
I don’t remember ever seeing it but it may be available online? If I do see it I’ll buy one
Brought a couple of these. Very tasty. In the supermarket, without my glasses on (and in poor light ) I thought it said 5.5% . As I poured my second, I thought I felt a bit warm and happy. Put that down to tiredness from a 15hr day at work. Then I gave the empty bottle a closer look.

I was recently introduced to Ardbeg by my daughter's father in law.
The veil has been drawn back!
Islay has more than it’s fair share of nice whisky.
Backwoods ******* and the one I posted are the only ones I'd vouch for. Also, if it's more than $5 or so per bottle (don't know our exchange rate), I'd pass since it would be gouging.
What's gouging? Over here it's removing someone's eyes with your thumbs...or similar!
It's that too.
It's overcharging when the purchaser doesn't have another option. I guess it's fully called "price gouging."

5 US dollars? That's peanuts!
You guys don't know you are born!
Actually, the real gouging usually comes in carriage charges. Anyway, importing anything from the US is prohibitively expensive, as I found out when I bought parts for my bike from there.
We look for imports from overseas as they are usually better. When I get an import (edit: beer), I don't see too much of a markup.
I got a blue steel pan from France last year. I was surprised that it was reasonable. I would have paid whatever since I wanted that pizza pan. It took a super long time though to arrive.
Just about to start tea and fancied a bit of a change so we have a nice nitro cocktail. These are sooooo good!
First taste test of the exmoor gold shot myself in the foot my mrs prefares mine she says it’s a little less bitter the real one is a little more malty, overall I am happy with it
Just got back from shopping to get some ingredients. We have friends coming round on Saturday and they’ve made a special request for a particular meal. Anyone that frequents the foodies thread may recognise the ingredients (not all shown). Anyway, I can’t resist putting one or two beers in my basket as you can see and it gives me an excuse for the second outing of my new glass. Cheers!
Lamb vindaloo!
