Testimonial - Well it seems that most of you "discordians" are little more than dupes of the Cathedral/NWO memetic apparatus after all -- "freethinkers" in the sense that you are willing to think slightly outside the designated boxes of correct thought, but not free in the sense that you reject the existence of the boxes and seek their destruction.

"Glen-More-An-Gie"

Also I suggest Laphroaig Quarter Cask, it should be a little more expensive than Glenmorangie (in the UK its usually around £20 for the former and £33 for the latter) but the difference in quality is noticeable, plus it's an Islay distillery, and I generally recommend Islay scotch whisky.

On the other hand, if you have money to burn, the older, 25+ year old Glen Grant single malts are as smooth as hell.  You pay through the nose for them, but they're oh so very worth it.

I was also about to suggest Laphroaig or Ardbeg before noticing that Cain had beat me to it.

Seriously,
Islay whisky > everything else

If it doesn't taste like smoke, then it's not worth the money. I usually drink Laphroaig 10 year old and the 15 year old when I can afford it (rarely).

Why can't you Scots use real English when you name things?

Why did England want Scotland, anyway?  You can't grow shit, and it's full of Scotsmen.

We have Bowmore at work right now. It's an Islay whisky. I also had to correct GS on how to say Islay. It's EYE-LAH not IS-LAY.

I'll second (third? fourth?) the Laphroaig recommendation.


Damn, I haven't had that in a long time, and I can still taste the peat-charcoal.

Is there a thread around here anywhere for (good) liquor suggestions?
