Glenmorangie is often thought of as a ladies malt. There are a number of malts in the range so maybe try an older one.

I'd avoid the different flavoured casks though. To my mind they spoil the whole think and are just for marketing.

Glenmorangie belongs to the Louis Vuitton people so they know a bit about marketing.

The bog standard Glenmorangie is my favorite whisky. I've tried other Glenmorangie's but think the standard one is the best for my pallet.

N has a rack on the wall full of them...... he loves the stuff. Personally I hate it although saying that I can tell the difference of a very good one from an average one by the smell.

The only one I could drink if I really had to is Bunnahabain....... very mild !!

a drop of water can do marvellous things to the taste of the bunnahabain

The difference between whiskey and whisky is simple but important: whisky usually denotes Scotch whisky and Scotch-inspired liquors, and whiskey denotes the Irish and American liquors.

The word itself (both spellings) is of Celtic origin, and modern whisky/whiskey distillation practices originated in Ireland and Scotland. Using whiskey to refer to Scotch whisky can get you in trouble in Scotland.

If you want a non peaty one then my advice would be to stick to the speyside ones.

Jura is my personal favourite

Old pultney is good

Aberlour is also nice

Avoid the blended ones they taste as they are priced ........... Cheap

Hope this helps xx

Try Lord of the Isles if you really want a great whisky but at £120 a bottle you'd expect it to be (and don't even think about Johnny Walker Blue unless you want to pay about £30 a shot).

Oban is nice with a little ice and Woodford Reserve is a good, reasonably priced bourbon.

There is a cracking book by the late great Iain Banks where he goes in search of the finest malt whisky. Very well worth a read and see if you agree with his conclusion. For me my favourite differs on my mood. I love a Macallan, but also enjoy the peatier malts like laphraoig. But frankly, I wouldn't turn my nose up at any single malt

A wee drop of water won't harm any of the malts.

If you drink Isle of Jura on Jura, the water which comes straight of the hill looks exactly like the whisky.

Whiskey/whisky is colourless until aged in barrels which have been previousaly used to store ports,sherries and the like which not only gives them thier colour but also the different flavours and aromas .

Anything bushmills for me. The single malt( green bottle) is beautiful and very smooth. Also have you sampled bushmills honey whiskey that is just to die for. Also blackbush is à very sexy little number.

My favourite is Ledaig from the Tobermory distillery on Mull. The taste is very similar to Laphroaig. The other malt from Tobermory is also quite nice.

I'm a fan of Jameson too.

Glenmorangie and Talisker are both really nice too.

An entirely unscientific survey suggests most Fab whisky fans are 38 and over (with one exception).

Do you think that's accurate?
