That it's definitely not

[charlescrawley]

I have two words for you:

[bga]

no way, go here for some decent tipple www.whiskyshop.com/

[kenny320]

I think not!

Tobermory (from the Isle of Mull), now thats a good whisky. Having said that Johnnie Walker does have its place, particulary good if you want a whisky and coke.

In order of preference:

1. Oban
2. Talisker
3. Laphroaig

...

787. Johnny Walker

Oooo, heaven! My fave "not too expensive, so have a bottle or two kicking around"-type is the The Balvenie 12 Year Old Double Wood...

[FourWheelDrift]

Has to be Jameson.

[ADL]

That has silenced the office greek!

[Pies]

Talisker

JW

[Scoobz]

Glenmorangie anyone

Jack daniels... bourbon yes... nice yes

[pedant]Actually, we're wrong... For a WhiskEy (Irish & American) it's okay. Now, whisky (Scottish) is a whole new ballgame... [/pedant]

edited: 'cos I'm a complete arse and somehow misread Johnnie Walker as Jameson's... Well, though of the latter for some reason when reading the former... Erk! Enough said! /hangs head in shame.... Now then... Time to berate ADL for calling it a "whiskEy"

After you've selected your tipple:

Straight or on the rocks?

[ADL]

charlescrawley you are right.

[sparkey]

Best whiskey's : Bushmills, Jameson
Best Whiskys : Talisker, Oban

[ADL]

It looks like the works company do at the Grovenor House is going to get quite messy. Our man in the offic wants to sample them all.

On the rocks... Can't be that bad, most scots i know have it with water

Mind you there are stereotypes with scots and their purses, that links could be drawn to here...

No, I'm not... JW is a scotch, so a whisky... I was mixing the name up with Jameson's as in my edit!

[mrmaggit]

I agree, charlescrawley, nice tipple that. In fact, I have a bottle of Balvenie 10yr behind the bar at the moment. Also The Macallan and Glenlivet. But then, I much prefer Speysides to Islands (too peaty for me).

Had a real thing for Dalwhiney (spelling?) - used to go through it like water until my brother's stag do when we were drinking it until the early hours at the hotel bar and I was later awakened by a hotel porter who'd found me asleep outside someone elses room. Now I can't even smell it without my stomach saying

Second to that has to be Bushmills.

On the rocks with a tiny drop of cold water. Mmmmm...
