I have been told from one of our administrators that I am a happy drunk

.
I never really have liked whisky.
I tried Bells. Fook that was rough. Grouse that was shite.
I have tried whisky that has been distilled in peat. Again not my cup of tea.
But at marches meet, after I was told by a friend of mine I tried isle of jura.
I think I am in love......

What is your tipple?

Single malt whiskey's cover the whole range, the peaty ones are the fiery smokey flavours, then some of them are so smooth and sweet,
Yep, partial to a nice single malt, a very contented,warm , singing sort of drunk !
An old local of mine had about 40 single malts on the top shelf, most from micro distilleries, some even had typed labels !
Happy days

I like a good range of em, Talisker, Oban, Highland Park, Jura, Laphroaig all lovely in their own way. Was hooked at 16 when the folks went to Scotland and bought me back a taster set

Can't stand any of that blended crap, I swopped a xmas bottle of Bells for a Glenmorangie with the old man, definitely the better deal

Jay what are you doing on here talking about whiskey.
Get into the bar and get 'em in for everybody!

Sorry, but I've had a bad day today and could do with downing a few!

Anything that isn't blue or green, doesn't taste of coconuts and doesn't have a worm in it.

And you were only a happy drunk because we couldn't steal your hat...

Tried Glenfiddick and johny walker black label today. The Glenfiddick is the nicer of the two. I still like the jura best of all.
And nick. Whisky doesn't make you snore............ But the brew you was drinking at marches meet definitely does.

Cider is good, in fact I am taking the Falco to a cider festival next weekend and camping overnight. Farm brewed cider and lovely strong cheese, can't wait.

sounds excellent to me. particularly if its real cider using traditional cider apple varieties - a lot of cheap cider these days uses imported apple juice I believe. bland.
