Just finishing off a decent afternoon/teatime shift on Glenlivet 15. Lovely smooth dram, which has went out of fashion over the years due to the (correct) drive towards non-chill filtered, non-coloured 46%-ish expressions. Still, wonderful stuff!

Had that before Christmas was lovely.

They have the 3cl sample on sale for £100, or at least they did have...

No mate, the black is though

now if they’d been 5cl samples I might have gone for it :lol:

latest order from Fine Drams arrived...half
expecting “extra costs/VAT” etc but none. Not convinced they’re doing it quite right but not complaining, £67 for the Glenfarclas 21 not to be sniffed at ;) and their delivery is cheaper than UK companies

Funny you should say that about 5cl's, they had a 38 yo Singleton on the other day, £35 (down from 70) and it's something I've had my eye on in a while as it was distilled the year I was born. However the fact it was only 3cl not 5 was enough to put me off lol

Fine drams is an awesome site, used them myself and would recommend them to anyone

I've never considered using them before. Will have a look.
 
I’m just getting into my whisky and favourites so far are Bunna 12, Talisker 10 and Highland Park 12. Any recommendations up to around £35ish? I’m fancying a bottle of Benromach and Ledaig but looking for a cheaper whisky around the £20 mark too

Ledaig is a fine dram if you like peated. For around your 35ish I’d recommend Arran 10 given your other likes.

That does look a good site. I’m on a self imposed buying ban until I get my unopened bottles below 50 but will definitely give them a look in the future.

Thanks for the recommendation, Talisker 10 is probably my favourite so far but Bunna 12 not far behind. I’ve just ordered the Ledaig 10 on Amazon for £33.25, coming Friday 👌🏻 How about something at the cheap end around the £20 price point?
