Re: What have you got open this weekend?

But it still wasn't better than Taylor 2010 LBV so far in 2017?

I have had Smith Woodhouse traditional LBV 2003 and Kopke filtered Late Bottled Vintage 2011, both were quite palatable. SW nicest.

Re: One quiz at a time

Springbank 12yo C. s. - Batch 12 - 54.1 %, 65% Sherry / 35% Bourbon Casks is correct.
Well done AHB, your turn.

I probably was jumping the queue here, but anyway. Nobody has so far objected.
Presently I am enjoying a very nice small whisky, which?

I sat and smiled when I wrote the reply, so no offence taken. It just goes to show how different a sentence can "sound" when it is written and not spoken directly to a person. Maybe "smilies" do have a function?
