Whisky


I’ve been re-stocking the old Whisky recently, and thought I should share a rather good Whisky offer with you. Booths are doing two bottles for 30 GBP on Aberlour, Bowmore, Old Pulteney and Jura. Any one of those is a great buy for 15 quid a piece, and I can highly recommend the Old Pulteney at that price. Collect all four!

I’ll post details of the collection once the Christmas presents have been reeled in - I can usually count on one or two bottles at this time of year…

The Macallan 10 yo

Out on a whisky hunt and came across a good offer in ASDA, yesterday. The Macallan 10 year old, 15GBP. Bargain. Not quite the bargain they had from a couple of months ago, 18 yo Glenlivet, 18 quid - usually £35 (and on sale at that price in Asda today). Still kicking myself for only buying 2…

It’s never worth paying full price for a single malt in a supermarket - If I “need” some, you can usually find a decent offer on one of the popular singles in one of the supermarkets, particularly Asda, Sainsbury’s and Booths. I tend to keep an eye out and buy them when I see them. Laphroaig, for example, comes up at £17 quite a lot, but at the moment is £24 in all of the supermarket’s I frequent (which are those 3 above, basically). For god’s sake, don’t ever pay £24 for a bottle of standard Laphroaig 10 yo!
