Any single malt afficionados here?

Then you’ve probably already tried Balvenie DoubleWood and TripleCask?
If not, you’re in for a treat.

Thank you.. will be on the lookout !

Superb Krishna! Some really nice ones in there!

For me the Glenmorangie/Glenlivets are nice in the summer.
Prefer the bold smoky single malts for the cool winter season.

Cheers!

Recently received a Balvenie 16 from a friend in Taiwan, amazingly smooth and sweet.

My wife recently vacationed in Bhutan with friends and she brought these Single Malts home for me from Kolkatta duty free.
Actually I asked her to get four different kind of spirits which are not in my collection... she bought these because there was an offer going on... buy two get xxx discount.
women!!!

Uh ... Can't blame em.
When we whiskey drinkers sit down for a "bhaitak" 2 pegs become 4 very quickly.
Same principle. It all equalizes in the end.

Yesterday, I had my first experience with Baijiu (according to my friend) at a dinner. He got it from Guangzhou Airport Duty Free.
Can't read a thing on the bottle except 46%vol and 500ml. Any one tried this or familiar with this drink?
If you did pl share your thoughts.
My hosts were indeed pleased that I was willing and able to sample and keep up with the number of toasts that were offered up.

You all should try Rampur Indian single malt by Khaitan Radico. It give distinct fruity flavour. Smooth can’t compare to glenmorangies smoothness but. It’s loving.

My collection is dwindling Glen 15 over, Glen 12 over,Kevalan over, Amrut Over, Now just a laphroiag left

 

[OM_2K19]

The weather in Bangalore is the real culprit. I pretty much relinquished all my Collection ;-)

My entire collection from my holiday trips to Dubai & Europe have been lost, courtesy the Wuhan virus.

One thing to remember about Japanese whiskies : they dont have strict origin rules to be branded as Japanese (unlike Scotch). I remember looking up a brand. Turns out they import bulk scotch, bottle it in Japan and sell in the international market as "Japanese" whisky

Recently the rules have been framed - what can be called a Japanese whisky!

This was from New Year earlier this year. Forgot how good this 18 year old was.
In fact even the 15 year old Glenfiddich is a seriously good tipple.
