Whisky Forum - Your last bottle

sorren · Posted: Fri Feb 06, 2015 6:15 pm Post subject: Your last bottle

Just a little fun, if you could only buy one more bottle of whisky which bottle would you buy, I'm talking bottles that are in your budget range, so if you would pay no more than Â£50 or Â£500 then that's your limit,
I would probably say mine would be the Glenfarclas 40, simple reason is I love the nose, I love the taste and at the old price Â£290-£340 it was a bargain, might think twice at current price.. So what would you buy ?

Without a doubt it would the Highland Park 25 year old.

I would say NV Gordon & MacPhail MacPhail's Collection Highland Park 30 Year Old. It impressed me a lot. I have of course tasted whiskies ( by the dram) I liked even more but the price points are beyond what I would in good conscience spend for a whole bottle.

Glenlivet 18 for me, still one of the best whiskies around in my book. Preferred it when it was Â£35 a bottle rather than Â£60 but thats the way with everything now.

If it was my last bottle i would have the Glenlivet 25 year old, only had one bottle and i do intend to repeat the experience.

I would be happy with a last bottle of Ardbeg Uigeadail

I will have a bottle Redbreast 21 year old

A George T Stagg, any year, but as these are like rocking horse poo it's not going to be possible. So I'd go for a Hibiki 21yo - one of those that I just sit there in awe of whenever I have glass.

I'm going to have to try some of these Japanese whiskys, had the hibiki 12 but that's about it 😟

I would go for the Glenfiddich 30 year old but the way prices are going i would guess it won't be in my price range in the not too distant future even to spoil myself with, which is a pity. It does look like the Glenfiddich have recently edged the 30 year old out of the limelight in favour of their new Glenfiddich Excellence 26 year old which is more readily available on the shelves of the whisky shops.

Difficult to pick just one but i would say the Glenmorangie 25 would do me as a last dram.
