To be honest there are not really any bargains to be had (uk duty free) anymore I've generally noticed. Possibly bigger bottles - that's it and most are travel retail (think NAS releases). That said the Dornoch was enjoyable and there are some Japanese and Irish numbers that are worth investigation. Most importantly sample, sample and sample some more  |

Yesterday when passing through World of Whisky at Glasgow airport they still had a few bottles of the Balvenie Tun 1509 Batch 2. _________________ There's no bad whisky. Just good whisky and better whisky. |

If you are going through T2 or T5 at LHR, Yamasaki 18 @ £120 would be my recommendation _________________ Talisker 18 - the rest are just details |

Maybe this is a radical idea but why not simply drink them? |
