My thoughts exactly. Very reasonable price for such a good whisky.
I have not opened/tried Talisker 18 yet. I will do it when my cold is over, maybe on 6th December, so I can appreciate the good stuff.
At the moment a cup of UVA Shawlands Estate (The East India Company -- Ceylon)
I had the first cup a week ago. To be honest, I am not overly impressed. It is an interesting tea and interesting flavour but I cannot say I love it. I think I prefer Afternoon Tea (Fortnum and Mason).
In the UVA Shawlands Estate tea I can taste some flavour similar to Afternoon Tea, but overall Afternoon Tea's flavour is more versatile? encompass a wider range of sub flavours? It is like UVA Shawlands Estate is this flavour only and Afternoon Tea has this flavour and a few others making it more interesting.
I am not sure I make sense but don't know how to explain it
