About 5 years ago, Aldi had an amazing Christmas whisky which seemed to be from Mortlach, and was fantastic.
Since then there's been nothing that attractive, and I thought I'd give this year's £40 ... |

After Aldi's superb whisky a few years ago (was it an aged Mortlach? It was fantastic!) I look forward to their Christmas leaflet.
This year's is very poor indeed.

Woodford Rye at £25 is a great start, I'd recommend that.

No Asda near here, but Mr Amazon has Woodford Rye at £28, so that'll do me. |

Both the Hudson rye and the pikesville (if you can find it) are decent. Thomas H Handy on the other hand is a different league, enjoy!
I had the Hudson Rye as my Hotel Room Bottle on our trip to New ... |

I'm a big fan of the Wild Turkey 101, and this Rare Breed (which should be) at 118 would be a hell of a thing at £42.50.
Has anyone tried it? Is it any better than the 101?
And any Rye recommenda ... |

I got a bottle of the "2002" Champagne Cognac for £30.
I was going to save it till Xmas, but couldn't wait.
It's very good.
Bit of citrus on the nose, light and floral, and very tasty. ... |

Anyone tried the Irish yet?
Plenty of it in South Wales, I'm feeling tempted.
A few Mulata, plenty of the 29, but no cognac yet. |

I HUGELY enjoyed the 28yo Glen Marnoch last year, and my ladywife was primed to get more this year on her trips to South Wales. (It was particularly good with salted caramel chocs.)
The 29yo this yea ... |

Do you think he had a lucky escape?
Laphroaig 10 ordered from more reliable suppliers.
Will save Amazon for good deals when I don't need it for a month. |

I don't know about the GlenMarnoch (though that abv looks like Mortlach) but I reckon Aldi's £18 Islay (not always available) is Caol Isla.
Tried them together and very similar. |
