Uncle Posted 30April, 2014 Report Share Posted 30April, 2014 Same set up as last time but without the mag artical or guest Porsche aust loan car. Maybe A.H and Just James would like to bring along a project car we could all have a drool over? I'll looking at dates now so if you want to come along let me know. Non scotch drinkers welcome but it must be stated this night is not a pi$$ up it's about a quite dram and a chat.

I'll provide the food as per normal but it's simple roast cooked on a woodfire with a roll. Locked in for the 28th of June. If you are driving your pride and joy I live in a very quite location and can fit everyone in my drive and close the gates. So we wont have any drama there at all. In. Me.Tobermory 15yo. Skechy.

edgy Posted 1May, 2014 Report Share Posted 1May, 2014 Uncle, I will try to get a Sullivan's Cove French Oak (batch 525), if I can't get that batch (highly likely), I'll just get what batch I can. Plan B would be a Talisker 18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Posted 1May, 2014 Author Report Share Posted 1May, 2014 Yeah I just finished a bottle of SC french oak my BIL sent up to me. Nice drop. You can't go wrong with the Tali either! Was my dram of choise till I found Ardbeg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russ Posted 1May, 2014 Report Share Posted 1May, 2014 I'm Keen! thinking of taking the 27th and 30th off. Leave Brisbane on the 27th to Tamworth, then Tamworth to Newcastle on the 28th and the reverse over the next 2 days? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was my dram of choise till I found Ardbeg. The one bottle of batch 525 I found on eBay is $1800 so I don't think I will be bringing one of those sorry I can't imagine their batches being too far departed from each other.... I'm sure the winning 525 batch is being sensationalised..... to a degree... just maybe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tk111 Posted 1May, 2014 Report Share Posted 1May, 2014 I'm keen Martin, lock me in, also I will take a place to roll my sleeping bag out thanks. I am open to suggestions on what scotch to bring, as my previous experiences have all been in the world of the blended type with a dash of coke or dry.

Uncle Posted 1May, 2014 Author Report Share Posted 1May, 2014 All good mate I'll set a place aside for you. You should have the contacts to sort an ok drop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteamWolf Posted 5May, 2014 Report Share Posted 5May, 2014 For someone new to enjoying whisky neat I would suggest single malts from the highlands or some of the Irish drops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Posted 5May, 2014 Author Report Share Posted 5May, 2014 Very good advice from Mr Wolf. A good rule of thumb is the lower you go to sea level the bigger the scotch. Think of it in high level terms like this. Highlands are like a Merlot and Islay are like a Shiraz. Sometimes you want an easy drinking light flavour and sometimes you want A SCOTCH.
