I'm currently in New York and bought myself a bottle of the Glenfiddich 14 Year Bourbon Barrel Reserve which is US release only, I was on the lookout after trying it and managed to find a bottle, I will take my time with it.
Kind Regards

Sounds good John. Enjoy. While you're there, don't miss out on a good deli restaurant smoked meat sandwich on rye bread also. Here's 5 places:

| It is annoying they made this a US exclusive release only, let us know what you think of it. |

One of my all time favourites is the Glenfiddich 14 Year Rich Oak, I had already read about the bourbon barrel reserve expression from a US whisky magazine a couple of months back so wanted to bring a bottle home anyway and was luckily given some to try in a bar first which confirmed for me that I must track a bottle down which I did after going into 4 different places, it's very nice but also heavy due to the bourbon barrel influence.
Supposed to be leaving New York tomorrow, may not happen at this rate, never seen snow like it.
Kind Regards

| I saw the weather reports on the BBC for the heavy snow in the US, if you get stuck at least you have the Glenfiddich Bourbon Barrel Reserve to keep you warm. |

The weather is really bad here not too sure if our flight is still on or not at this stage, regarding the Glenfiddich, get it if you can.
Kind Regards
