      @Tago Mago good choice! In my limited experience, Whitley Neill combines well in most situations.

      @Jett129 I can relate to this, but I realised that the consequences were mainly down to me, not the gin :D. I got turned on to the possibilities at a blind tasting at the Plymouth Gin distillery a few years ago.

      Both - I'll have to look out for Mezcal when I'm out and about.

          A bottle of Guinness Original XX.  Condensed/Evaporated Milk. 1/2 teaspoon of Nutmeg.

            Hit up a spot in Southsea for the first time recently and had one of the best old fashioned's I've had in a while

            by far and away superior to the shower of shite I paid £12 for in Dishoom in London. "Our artisan (the barmans words) take on a traditional old fashioned" I later found out it had 'bay leaf and green tea reduction' in

            The devil is in the detail..

              @AdamJ  It's been a while since I had a good old fashioned.  Thanks for giving me an idea on how to start the weekend.

              Cheers

                      @Anesthetist    That gin is distilled without any labeling or promotion, solely for the owner of a local wine shop. It's wonderful, soft and with some discreet citrus touch. You bring your own bottles and they fill them up.

                        That sounds amazing, I love little distillers like that

                            So far, so good.  Just need to add Grand Marnier.

                                          Looking for a new bottle of Islay Scotch.
                                          Can anyone attest to the quality of Ardbeg Wee Beastie? Fan of the 10Y but heard mixed reviews on this 5Y…

                                            @T4920 I am intrigued by this Wee Beastie offering from Ardberg.  Haven't tried it yet, but I like the 10Y and love the Corryvreckan and Uigeadail offerings.  🙂

                                            If you try it, let me know what you think.
