jezza 0 Posted January 17, 2011 if you add water it should only be drops to mellow the flavour don't get drowning it and don't get putting lemonade or coke with it.I prefer single malts neat , mind you i prefer most alchohol neat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

XS1100 0 Posted January 17, 2011 Whisky and ginger is good also with ice but only with cheep nasty stuff, I like single malt on its own but there are loads out there these days.Rum is good with coke and Gin is good for degreasingGood site that and one for my list to check out cheers.

Guest Guest Posted January 17, 2011 Tullamore DewTook me 25 yrs to find it again after my first taste. I tried every one until I found it again.Wonderfull Irish Wiskey that is like drinking honey. Only neat though.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Neill 0 Posted January 17, 2011 Bunnahabain or Laphroaig and the only thing you should put in a malt is another one!!They add enough water at the distillery, its the source of that water that gives the malt its flavour not the sherry or bourbon barrels it spends the next 8 or 12 years in Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

maxnod 0 Posted January 18, 2011 Another one that springs to mind is Gordon Graham's 'Black Bottle', very smooth for a blended whisky and only about £14 a bottle Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chas 0 Posted January 18, 2011 I'm not allowed Whisky anymore, it turns me into a violent drunk instead of a sleepy/slurring one, but Dalwhinnie used to be my favourite.I used to have a reliable source of illicit Poteen which I'm told was second to none in quality. Unique in the way you can still get drunk by drinking water the morning after. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
