Whisky Forum - Murray's Own Whisky Anagrams Contest

Quaich1

Okay. I designed some whisky anagrams. I provided the letters and you figure out each of the 3 randomly selected single malt scotch distilleries by rearranging the letters. Mark your total time for all 3 combined so we can have a winner if some folks guess all three. The prize is of course bragging rights. I'll post the winner and 2 runner ups,i.e., Gold, Silver and Bronze spots, Friday. You can submit your answers and total time to me Quaich1 using the "send a private message" function so that the other members will not see the answers until it is over.

1) h g e l g n s s u a l a g

2) l a r s h i t a s t

3) w b o m r e o

Good Luck!
Murray

Got all three inside two minutes.

The first and third were easy. Struggles a little more with the middle one.

Great idea!

Struggling with the second one. By the way did you intend to put the four middle letters of the second one in that order Wink

I think it took me about a minute (first and third I got instantly, I needed a bit for the second one) but since I hadn't read the post properly (may have been the influence of an Aberlour a'bunadh) I didn't time myself so it's pretty much an empty boast with no substance!
