Hi everyone ...
apologies for being missing ........just been a hectic last 6 months on the professional front ..investment banking never ceases to amaze ..:)
well back to scotch ....
was in sri lanka a couple of months back & was pleasantly suprised to know that they make some very good whiskies particularly one named as " Old Keg ".......was one of the smoothest whiskies i have had outside a scotch. A little floral to the palette & well rounded is an apt way of describing this beauty ......its available only in Sri Lanka & not even in the dutyfree so you would have someone want to pick it up from the country itself ...!
Another add on to the collection was the XR Johnnie Walker 21 years
Johnnie Walker XR 21 YO is an exclusive blend inspired by the handwritten
notes of Sir Alexander Walker, the grandson of founder Johnnie Walker.
Sourced from the exclusive reserve of aged casks, including those of the
now silent Brora distillery, the whisky has been allowed to age for
twenty-one years, achieving a smooth, deep blend - the depth and
intensity of aged oak, the subtle notes of vanilla, the sweet hint of golden
honey and a very smooth finish. Each bottle is uniquely numbered and sells
for $105.00 at the mumbai airport dutyfree.........note that this is only sold in duty frees world wide & not in open stores.......have'nt yet had the chance to taste it but will post comments soon once i have ....
Till then as always ...Enjoy that dram :)
