What Whisky For Over Christmas ?

[dodgy_dundee]

I am not a huge whiusky drinker and only got into it a while back after having Jura - Diurachs Own and it is still my favourite. I have Lafraoig 12 years and a Glenfiddich 12 years but I am looking to get a couple of others, the Auchentoshen Three Wood, and Jura - Turas Mara were what I was going to choose.

Any suggests, anything that has a smoothness?

.......if you're looking for smoothness, try Benromach

Living on a whisky island a friend who is a former distillery worker and is now sadly in the "high stand" told me that any single malt whisky aged over 15 years old is very smooth.

He further added that single malt whisky is far better if it has a bit of a bite to it and therefore it has to be aged 15 years old or younger.

Highland Park from Orkney is my tipple...smoky and peaty.

If your wallet can stretch it, Glenmorangie 1993 Ealanta's a very smooth and sweet dram. Price is rocketing for this beauty. It was £100 about a month ago and seems to be up to £250 now.
