I have thought about this before and it can work out not too bad a price per bottle but ultimately what put me off is spending so much on so many bottles the same and i like a variety.

Hi all,

Have just been reading your opinions and I have to agree - Only madmen or groups should want to buy so many bottles of the same whisky. Unless of course you have a sales outlet.

I'll maybe get around to bottling one of these casks of Bowmore if any remain unsold- I have bottled other whiskies including a 27 year old Caol Ila, which are available on my website. They should appeal more to whisky drinkers.
