| Good start to your collection mate. My advice is don't spend too much too soon. Bottles like Deanston 12 and bunnahabhain 12 can be got for less than £40 and are great whiskies. Others in that pric ... |

| I think distilleries and shops are blatantly profiteering but if people are willing to pay why not? |

| I got a bottle of the Talisker 18yo a few months ago and I will not be without one in future if I can help it. It seemed to get better as the bottle emptied. |

| Exactly Dave. The sad thing is that Benromach had a good value product there and have just thrown away that good will. It is still only a 10 yo and it now costs £60, that's silly. After the novelty ... |
