On my 18th birthday I fell in love with a much older woman in my local pub who could name any whisky that she sipped. I fell for it & it cost me £££'s, a valuable lesson learned.
I have always preferred the top shelf over the draughts, because in the 1000's of bars I have wobbled at I have only ever drunk beer at 2 that have lived up to their marketing expectations.
I am a whisky snob/connoisseur, call me what you want.
During a road trip around Scoatland a few years ago, we just happened to come across a sign, quite by accident, pointing towards the Dalwhinnie distillery. I have a very vague recollection of this visit, I remember that everyone else seemed to have a Merrykun accent & I remember that Dalwhinnie recorded the lowest temperature ever recorded in mainland Britain. I remember that our excellent guide wasn't actually Scottish & I remember the angels share from the ghost barrel.
What I don't remember is something absolutely fundamental to the whisky connoisseur & that is our most excellent guide telling me the only 5 whisky's worth drinking. Dalwhinnie obviously, & I remember Islay, but I cannot for the life of me remember the other 3.
You are the internets & you are my only hope.
