While at it I'd like to brag a little. I got two 1 litre bottles of Laphroaig for 27 GPB each when I was at an airport in London.
That's half the usual price :D
So it'd be 54 GPB each normally?
I take it that's pretty expensive?
If your attack is going well, you have walked into an ambush.
Yup. It's even more in Sweden, about 65GPB in comparison I think. But then again; Sweden has ****ed up alcohol laws.

I thought it would be funny to make a thread for all those whiskey lovers on the site.
Here you can recommend and rate whiskeys you've tried and just generally talk about whiskey.
If you rate a whiskey; also describe the taste a little if you can. Not everyone likes the same taste ofc.
Main distinction in taste is whether it's smoky or not. Everyone should be able to tell the difference between a smoky and a non-smoky whiskey.
I'd like there to be no "11/10" and stuff like that. Keep it withing the score limit.
Most ppl probably know about this already, but the 2 biggest things you can do to bring out the taste in a whiskey are (as far as I know) to pour a few drops of water into the glass and heat it a little.
You'll have to figure out methods of heating out yourself :P
Here are the whiskeys I've tried:
(been a while since I've drank a few of them so I can't quite remember the tastes)
Bowmore - A little smoky. Tastes kinda like Laphroaig, but milder and a lot less smoky.
8/10
Grant's - Not smoky at all. A taste of cherry.
7/10
The Famous Grouse - Kinda like Grants, but less cherry taste and a little more alcohol taste (if I remember correctly). It tastes better when you add a little water and heat.
5.5/10
Jamesson's - Bitter with a really bitter aftertaste, me no like >.>
3/10
Lagavoulin - Smoky. (can't remember)
8-9/10
Laphroaig Quarter Cask - Very smoky with a strong taste. Smells like tar with a tiny hint of vanilla. Very strong aroma. Strong on the alcohol(48%) part too. Drink a glass of this and you'll smell whiskey for hours ^_^
10/10
Laphroaig - Very smoky with strong taste. Kinda like a milder version of quarter cask.
9/10
Islay Mist - Smoky. Kinda like Laphroaig (contains a little Laphroaig), but less distinct taste(it's blended after all). Cheap good whiskey.
9/10
Laphroaig has apparently been named "the best scotch whisky in the world" by Whiskey magazine. Just found out when googling a little.
