What's the best single malt whisky? My vote goes to Talisker. With Aberlour in second place because I can't spell the one I'm thinking of. |

If it's whiskey it *has* to be J&B It doesn't matter what it tastes like, it just *has* to be J&B |

Asda's Economy whiskey isn't bad, but tastes just a bit more like piss than Tesco's, so Tesco's it is. |

J&b is a blend... And, not intending to sound geeky, if it's scotch there's no e in whisky. :-) |

Do you always drop an E in your whisky, Weber? |

Talisker here. J & B with or without coke is another favourite. |

I'll put in a vote for Frugoscotch. A drop or two on your Sticky Rotters can set you up for the day. |

Laphroaig is nice, as are Talisker and The Maccallen... |

Actually, the one time I've found Lagavulin at a price I could afford (one of the local British leegions has a bottle behind the bar so you can buy it by the shot at £2.50 a time) it were bloody lovely stuff. The price is a negative factor though - £40 plus a bottle is out of my normal price range. Oban is pretty bloody good as well. My brother in law has a bottle in his kitchen cupboard that I've had a few snifters from. Laphroig is another good one. Not a patch on Talisker though. |

Despite being Scottish I'm more of a bourbon drinker myself. I just can't afford to try any really good Scotch whisky at the moment :/ |

My preference is for Laphroaig simply because it's my favourite from Islay - I love the smokiness of it. Scotches I've so far tried from other regions tend to be a tiny bit too sour for my palate (oo-er, get 'im!)... |

I bought an unused Morphy Richards coffee maker at the weekend from a car boot sale up in Seahouses - for £3! That's cheaper than a Starbucks coffee on its own! Last night I overfilled it with water and the top blew off and nearly crushed half my face, almost taking my eye out. |

Hmm. It might be malicious. Are you sure, Tony, after it exploded, it wasn't saying "Neato!" over and over, and you misunderstood?... |
