Last night but, Glenfiddich 21 Year Gran Reserva that I picked up Duty Free in Frankfurt on the way back from Aus last time.
Was just in Japan so I picked up some Japanese whiskeys. Pretty impressive stuff, a scotch style but not particularly peaty. Specifically, drinking a Suntory Hibiki 17 year old. Kind of wish I threw out the extra for the 21 year old over the 17 year old I bought, but my bank account was already looking pretty damaged after this trip so I thought a bit of frugality was called for
Only heard and tried a few but I will say good things about Japanese Scotch so if anyone else has a chance to try do it. I normally live in Thailand or Singapore so you can bet I will be trying to buy a few duty free to keep in my cabinet. In Singapore they have a famous Scotch lounge I have tried a lot of the Scotches there but to be honest I never taken notes because I am a bourbon man at heart needless to say I have sampled a lot of fine Scotch and the Japanese versions are up there with the best of note.
a quöllfrisch Hell at the moment. Best thing I can buy cheap.... Someone send a poor man a carton of Little Creatures Pale ale... Spl@
My cousin works in a boutique bottle shop, he came home with a bottle of it last weekend, we polished it off between three, and even girls tried it and loved it. I bought a bottle and took to a mates place last night - again, everybody loved it. Craps all over Captain Morgan or Sailor Jerry (which are quality anyway).. And the bottle is awesome
