    'The Nose'!

    Like Whisky, Paterson can be a bit of an acquired taste, but he generally cracks me up.

    Very much an acquired taste. I used to almost whitey at the smell of it when I was younger, then started to dabble, now if I open a bottle it will rarely last the night.

    Mrs is away on a hen doo today so went a wee trek with a wine and a few cans, ended up at Glengoyne distillery to get the bus back down. The tourism whisky gets is no real, folk from everywhere there for the tour.

    Not really a fan of whiskey although I do drink it most times I go out. Start of with Guinness, then bulmners the JD and coke. Can't really drink it on its own.

    Video is class, never saw it/him before, best thing about holidays in my twenties was duty free whisky out AND back, currently loving Glenlivet, great taste and just enough burn on the throat to remind you it’s 40%

    Quadruple Jameson’s with 3 cubes of ice. Can drink it neat but the ice takes the edge of it ever so slightly.

    Remember staying in East Kilbride with a gang of lads 1990. We were all 16/17 and LD and Thunderbird were the order of the day. Mental * drinks. Always a scrap at the end of a session.

    Took my old man to that Pot Still last night, had a whisky tasting gift voucher so thought St Andrews Day be a good day for it. I'd recommend it for folk that are into it. Made me even more interested in it. I'm happy wi a Grouse but we got 6 each of one's I've never heard of, the last one The Big Peat was pretty fierce, think it was 56%. Gonna look into the Stobcross distillery tour soon, enjoyed that one, has never tried that before.
