Single Malt

[slofox]

Got me some Macallan 12yo "Fine Oak" single malt at the moment. Very nice.

But one serious drawback. It evaporates (in my house anyway...)

At the risk of my Scottish grandfather coming back to haunt me ... I prefer Canadian whisky.
Great old fella. He reckoned putting water in whiskey was polluting it. He had shares in Wilsons Distillery in Dunedin so drank their 45 South (?) to help improve his share prices. He used to pour it into a Johnnie Walker bottle though for show.

the scottish make SCOTCH damn you. the canadians make hooch.
the irish were doing whiskey long before those heathens, and whilst a good single malt is a fine drop, i do tend to prefer blended whiskeys.
for the price, tullamore dew cannae be beaten.
walker blue is also quite good. and chevas 12.

I also have the evaporation problem with both single malt and blended. The biggest problem though is the faster it evaporates policeman tend to look like midgets.
I tend to study the evaporation rate of Jack Daniels or Appletons of late.

I preferred the highland malts as i don't like dirt in my booze.

Problems is after drinking it every day while working up there I just can't drink it anymore.
I have had two bottles of Macallan Elegancia 12 y sitting in the cupboard for over 2 years.

A bit off topic, but I make a very nice whiskey by using Jack Daniels oak barrel chips. I add 10L of neutral spirit to 500g of oak chips and leave it for a few weeks before filtering it off through a funnel with some cotton to remove the small pieces of oak. Makes a very tasty drink indeed.

SMOKEUs tip of the day: Dissolve 1 tbsp of honey in a very small amount of water, then add it to a litre of whiskey. Leave for a week, then drink. You can thank me later.
