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 Laughing

If you are going through T2 or T5 at LHR, Yamasaki 18 @ £120 would be my recommendation

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