Why? It's not a vodka commercial. It is produced by a great whisky rich of flavor, that teaches people to appreciate finer things in life. It preaches prevalence of quality over quantity, has a richer taste in every dram for your tongue to enjoy. It may turn you into a connosseur or jus...

@vigil12348

Yeah, what you're doing is lovely. The tasting and distillery visit videos are fine and informative, but what I appreciate the most are videos like this one - about the life of the people that inhabit the area, soulful people, simple people, people with island opinions, blown by the ...

You know, 10 yo Jura costs 18 Euros in Bulgaria. That's five euros more than a standart 3yo blend and five euros less than JW BL. So at that price it has lovely quality and I thank Whyte and Mackay for this extremely reasonable pricing. When most malts cost around 30 Euros, Jura Tenner comes like...

I think that this long drink recipe will go extremely well with Black Bottle instead of the V69. I'll just go on and try it.

So you're not a fan of a good swirl of the whisky in the glass before nosing? Just a rolling... Sometimes I think that after staying 10 minutes in the glass my whisky needs a swirl to agitate the liquid because it's been "asleep". For example with some Islay's, savoury notes are detectable for me...

When it comes to raising the bar, if a man can drink and review 35-year old GlenGrant single malt and go back to do a sincere Black&White common blended review without pretentious slamming of the latter, he deserves the greatest respect. Salut! If you ever get a book out, yours will be the only o...

The day Craig took Josh to live dub Peterson was the day comedy world changed.

Bruno wrote this song.... you own it!

Ballantine's 12 yo is marvelous. I drank it after sampling Laphroaig CS and still enjoyed it's remarkable complexity. It's my house blend, and it has high malt content. Huge stuff. Still waiting for the Dimple Pinch, though. I thought you were going to include it within the recommended blends. It...

And you also have to admit that Gina Phillips is an awesome babe.

@ralfystuff

Looking forward. Cheers, teacher.

@vigil12348

many malts since then, guided by your terrific reviews and advices and I've elaborated a taste and distinctive ability to sense the ingredients. I've developped an immunity against shitty bottlings. I will never ever risk with a modern blend and I will always carry a malt in my car f...

Master Blender Richard, are you answering your own youtube posts? Or you have someone do it for you?

@ralfystuff

Thanks!

Oh dear God! Oh, dear Bruce!

I love it how he doesn't solo out of respect for Gary. Glapton is a delicate and sensible artist and this hommage does him credit. It's a great tribute in which the performer is not particulary insisting on himslef, but it's more a honorable wave goodbye to Gary. A master to a master!

It is indeed a wonderful peace of music. A pop version of Lisa Gerard, powerfull nonetheless. Love the 80's synth, so delicately nostalgic now.

Честит Рожден ден, Фреди!

On the not so expensive side - the Belgian Cote d'Or Intense or my favorite Cote d'Or Brute are both great option with Talisker. I too recommend it over Lindt. Lindt's not what it used to be.

When he's talking about the Aenima, Mariella looks at him like: "Damn, I can't believe it! Does a man like this still exist in this rotten planet?!"

@numbtesticle

Fruit brandy you mean rakia? Българска ракия?

@Panoptic555

Black Bottle, mate. Much more complexity. Teachers tend to decline in quality, although they have a lot of the superb Ardmore inside. Ardmore on its own is a marvelous malt, but as far as blends are concerned, BB has the Bunna sweetness and long Ardbeg finnish. It will linger for fi...

@BrothuhV84

Yeah, I agree - the longer the videos, the better. Even my humble request is if you would at your convenience, Ralfy, double already reviewed whiskys for the benefit of an enhanced presentation. For example, when you were reviewing your sole Bowmore, you said "They've changed their p...

@ralfystuff

Thanks.
