Been kindly gifted a bottle of Glen Scotia Double Cask. Not one for Scotch generally, love bourbon as a rule.
Anyone here had it? Looks like a nice bottle of stuff but it's not something I've had and I don't want it to go to waste. |  |

I could do with whisky drinking lessons/advice as well.
I keep being giving whisky and poitin by clients, mainly at Xmas but have no real history of drinking either. I just put it in the cupboard. There now so much poitin in there I fear if we ever have a housefire the place will explode.
I've downed a few whiskys in the pub when already full of beer but never just sat down and drank it on its own of a evening.
Does it have to be drunk neat or can I add ice?
Was told by an old boy the other year to ' mix poitin with white wine as its the only way to drink the sh1te' but not sure that was sound advice
Do I accompany it with cheese or jolly ranchers or his eating cheating?
Thank you |
My dad used to get bottles of whisky at Christmas from clients, but despite being Scottish he wasn't a whisky man (or even much of a drinker) so they ended up in sideboards and like.
When he died, my mother put them up for sale at auction and she got quite a lot of money for them.
For my own part, I was put off whisky at an early age by being given hot toddies when I had a cold.
EDIT: I came across the following which made me laugh.
"A hot toddy is the Scottish “cold-cure” equivalent to homemade chicken soup!" [Post edited 29 Mar 16:26]

Been drinking Scotch for years and only discovered Glen Scotia recently. A very tasty dram, as long as you add nothing more than water. Those who would add coke or cherryade to whisky, make sure it's a blend. |
The other thing you can add is more whisky....... |  |
