I started drinking Scotch about 16 years ago, I started on the cheap stuff, ie Johnny Walker, famous grouse, black douglas and mcallums just to name a few. The i got a job and started to try more expensive scotches. I found that all the Johnny Walker whiskys taste practically the same just a little smoother when the price goes up. I have tried most of the range of scotch at Dan Murphys and I enjoyed most of them. Now here is the troubling part, one day I went into Dan Murphys and saw Bushmills malt (not a real expensive irish whiskey aged 10 years), I thought i have tried most of the other scotch whiskys here i might give the irish whiskey a go. Well to be honest it was the smoothest and best tasting whiskey I have tasted. I think it has something to do with the triple distillation. But now when i go back to drinking scotch whisky it seems to all taste like ash. I dont understand why but now I can only really enjoy irish whiskeys. It doesn't mean i dont drink scotch whisky it just means i dont enjoy is as much as i used to. which is a shame.

At the casino in Brisbane they have a wine and whisky bar

"the Irish invented it, the Scots perfected it.... and the Americans, well we won't go there."


As much as I like the Irish/Scottish whiskeys I find that If I try to drink them I end up with horrendous heart burn. The only whiskey I can drink now (and have grown very partial too) is Jack Daniels.

Knock JD if you must, but most if not all the Scottish and Irish distilleries buy JD barrels after they are finished with them.

Rocky Road....

i know others that heartburn happens to so not knocking in any way. Is great if one can find a drop one likes.

Very interested in some of our local drams..... have to look into them.

Last night I had a Highland Park, previous nights this week it was a Laphroaig Quarter Cask.

My default is Johnnie Walker Green Label, which I love. There is nothing wrong with a Johnnie and i thank them for the free whisky schools they ran a few years back that got me into scotch in the first place after not getting it for many years.

I also have a bottle of Caol Ila, Edradour special edition and the simply amazing Macallan Elegancia. I'm a bit like some people here are with Lanrovers, I seem to accumualte them.

Next bottle I want to find is a Springbank, a Campbelltown whisky, an area Ive never tried.

Bugger me...all these years in Belgrave and I didnt know that....Im going there tomorrow.

Now I M buggered, no cellar door sales....Nicks WIne Merchants...Im going there now.

Has anyone tried Limeburners from the Great Southern Distilling Company in WA?

Great Southern Distilling Company - Whisky

This is the site for Sullivans Cove, was just looking at the website and I think I have previously had the double cask whisky Awarded an outstanding 93 points by French Whisky Critic Gregorie Sarafian..
this is the website Tasmania Distillery

have a look at some of the reviews to get a an idea i'm definitely putting an order in. For them to be awarded Best Other World Whisky they must be right up there with the best.

my test buds are salivating at the thought hehe.:D

I agree about the younger cheaper Glenfiddich's the quality is not the same due to the large commercialisation of the brand.

And as for a group trip where we can offload those not interested in whisky or 4wd to leave us other buggers i would definitely be up for that

without doubt one of the best new threads :D
