Hello all,
I recently scored a whole load of miniatures off a local sales group on facebook.
I chucked all the dodgy looking stuff but am left with quite a haul of mini whiskys. Enough in fact for one a day till christmas.
I was hoping i could post a photo of them and maybe someone could advise me which one i should be saving for christmas morning ( or hogmanay )
If i figure out how to get a photo up i will, other wise I will list them all out.
Cheers all |

| Good haul! My personal favourite out of those is the Glenfiddich 15 Solera. Have never tried the Glen Keith. |

The Old St. Andrews set looks interesting, 2 malts and a blended scotch. Looks an older set. What is the holder supposed to be; can't tell from photo, golf related??Can't locate the same set so far on internet search.
Of course, the Glenfiddich 18 is always a good one for drinking, _________________ "Always carry a large flagon of whisky in case of snakebite and furthermore always carry a small snake."

I am starting with what i am sure are the least impressive, and well the far left m&s kenmore i tried yesterday was pretty horrible. It tasted like flowers or air freshener. Next to it is/was single highland malt again from m&s which was quite pleasant if not remarkable.
in the blue box on the far left is another m&s kenmore but the bottle is in the shape of a sports car. I might give it my 14 year old son and put him off strong drink till he's older !! ha ha
the one in little barrels look a bit novelty so they will be drunk after the m&s then its on the those packaged in tubes.... |
