Nah, Isle of Jura Whiskies

Which are Single Malt Scotch

 

[Tengu]

No, Mead! How are we in the dark ages to survive without it?

 

[Bowlin]

Which are Single Malt Scotch

Yes, but the Jura ones surpass all others IMHO and are a class apart

Jura is a nice every day whisky (particularly Superstition), but you need to try a 30 year old cask strength non chill filtered Caol Ila - a snip at £260 a bottle - worth every penny

You've tried them all? All of them?

Prefer a buff.

Good point I do love my buffs, shemargh has more uses though I reckon.

Jura is nice, but far from the finest of fine. Mead is great, and Red's mead is greater.

 

[British Red]

Ahhh Jon - you really must try the 2013 Strawberry Mead....that really is rather special

 

[JonathanD]

I feel a trade coming on

 

[British Red]

I did a vanilla one and a plain sack mead too

It has got better now that we keep bees as we have complete control of the the process

 

[Tengu]

Tell, me, British Red, are there any of my bits that you might like?

some great stuff coming out in this thread folks

toddy, its funny you should say about not wearing a mountain cap near a fire

that hat is the one piece of goretex kit i own that i don't worry about. its my general purpose cold/wet weather hat worn all day every day in winter (i'm a farmer) and of course when out and about as well

i bought it for a trip in 2003 and its not got a rip or burn hole in it, it could do with another re-proof mind
