Spotted two good whisky bargains in my local Asds today.

Glenlivet 18 year old for just under Â£23 and Glenfiddich 15 year old solera reserve for Â£20 and a few pence. Dont know if they will be available everywhere as they looked like they where reduced to clear.

Hi Rene,

I agree there doesnt appear to be the same bargains around as there was this time last year. I am holding back from restocking also. Some of the better deals i picked up last year didnt appear until between the Christmas and Hogmanay period.

Last time i was in my local Asda i got the impression they had reduced the size of there malt whisky range it certainly looks that way in there online store.

Laphroaig 10 for Â£18.70

Glenfiddich 12 for Â£18.72

Ardbeg 10 for Â£21 good price but Tesco is now under Â£20 on this one

Hi keebs

All the single malt offerings from the supermarkets are great value for money. I dont think it would ever be confirmed what is in the supermarket bottlings i am sure it is a closely guarded secret. Over the years i have heard many big brand names mentioned as suppliers to the big supermarkets such as Glenmorangie and Caol Ila but we will never have this confirmed. I suppose part of the fun is trying to guess what is in the bottle.

Personally i have found Tesco offer the best choice out of all the big supermarkets, their Highland (which a few people believe is Old Pulteney) and Islay whiskies are worth trying. The problem with the supermarket malts is what is in the bottle could change at any time and you will never know because they dont put a New Improved label on the bottle like they do with their baked beans.

Not much in the way of ofers at Asda at the moment but you will find a good price on their Bushmills 10 year old if you are looking for a bottle for St Patricks day it is only Â£18.92

Thanks Alastair, this is a great saving on the normal price, almost a crime not to buy a bottle. I will pick one up when i am out at lunch time.

Just checked the Asda website and they have a few good deals available:

Ardbeg 10 year old - Â£22.97
Cragganmore 12 year old - Â£21.04
Dalwhinnie 15 year old - Â£22.94
Isle of Jura - Â£17.98
Talisker 10 year old - Â£21.98

The whole range of Glenfiddich seems to be on offer the one that stands out for me which you dont see on offer very often is the Glenfiddich Caoran for Â£21.46
