|
Evening,
Love my whisky but know little about it. Customers buy me bottles and they go in the cupboard and I just tend to drink Balvenie and Glenfiddich as regulars.
Contents of cupboard at moment are Glenburgie 12, Strathisla 12, Lagavulin 16, Balbair 89 2nd Release, Balblair 99 2nd Release, Glenlivet Founders Reserve, Glencadam 14 Oloroso Sherry, Tobermory 10, Ardmore Legacy, Tullibardine 225 Sauternes Finish, Littlemill 12, Benromach 10.
Are any of these worth keeping hold of or are they all just good for drinking. Been tidying up the house due to lockdown and drinks cabinet needed a sortout. cheers john |

Persoanally i would open em. Cant seem to resist the lure of seeing for myself what they taste like.
If your not bothered though as Samson says the Balblairs might be worth keeping but there not going to make you loads i would have thought.
If you like your whisky I am sure you will like them too. |

Ive tied many in your collection and you will like them given what your first choice is. Lagavulin might be different for you but crack em all open, drink through 700ml a month and you'll have emptied your cabinet in a year.
But, consider this-
There's little 'value' in any of them, but you could stick them all to auction and enjoy them creeping up in price during the week of auction and then buy a good aged Balvenie and/ or Glenfiddich with your few hundred pounds. |
