Went over the border into Devon this evening. Nice gourmet steak, washed down with a couple of pintos San Miguel.... Lovely.
Afterwards a visit to Waitrose and a purchase of this.
On offer at £26.
Fancy copper stilled bog trotter juiceView attachment 25543
I tried that a few months back.
There was nothing particularly bad about it. But I couldn't see any value in the extra price over a £16 bottle?
Cool bottle though 😀

Although you always refer to Irish whiskey as "Bog trotter juice"
You seem to buy an awful lot of it?!? 😉

After a couple of glasses have to agree, it's nothing special. Pleasant that's it.
Not as sweet as most "bog trotter juices"
Cool bottle and pourer though😎

Tonight's tipple...

RRP £24, reduced to £18.
At £24 I wouldn't rate it as anything special. But at £18 it's very pleasant, if fairly unremarkable. Just a good drinkable whiskey in a similar style to Paddy or Tullamore DEW 🙂

Bought it a while back in Asda on offer. Agree nothing special ( apart from gets you pissed!).
I found it gives a sweet after taste like Tullamore "Trotter" Dew "Juice"

Some people will complain about anything 🙄...

BBC News - Shops asked to halt mafia-themed Scotch whisky orders

It speaks volumes as to how academics and those in power perceive the rest of us, they think we are children! 😒

Tonight I'll be trying a bottle of fizz from East Sussex - the grapes grown on a mate's sister's vines. Not commercial but a hobby.

As her other plonk has been good, I will approach with an open mind!
