I am partial to the odd bottle of Highland Park. I'm far from being an expert on Whisky but this one is pretty smooth.
Neat of course!

I got given a bottle of Welsh whisky for Christmas (I didn't even know there was such a thing!). Penderyn single malt, its about £40 a bottle and its fantastic. Also got a bottle of Monkey Shoulder (scotch from Grants), also lovely.

Both gone now

Penderyn is fantastic! Do you like your Whisky to be smoky or more smooth?

I collect whisky a little bit. Buy one to drink and one to keep.

My taste is cheap ancnoc 12 is my easy drinker, and.is excellent. £30
Highland park twisted tattoo is nice £65, aged in wine casks which is quirky.

It's mostly ardbedgs that I collect, grooves, kelpie, blaack, still young.

I drunk a 70cl bottle of ardbeg alligator, which is now £450 for 5cl bottles

TMQ a Celtic fan on here likes his whisky

I’m not a Connoisseur but I do like a single malt, best, Glen Keith and Dilwhinne are affordable and sometimes on offer at Tesco & Morrisons, I won’t pay over £25 for a 70cl bottle
I also believe it’s all down to personal taste, I’m not keen on smoky or peaty I prefer a smooth slightly sweet flavour.

Blair Atholl 12y is going down well, as are a few Caol Ila's, in particular the art of whisky making 7 year old. It'l was cheapish when I bought it, no idea if it's expensive now.

My wife bought me a subscription to https://www.whisky-me.com/ for my birthday. I get a double shot of a different whisky in the post every month. I really like it and have bought a couple of bottles based off liking the whisky of the month.

Easy to drink and quite cheap I go for Haig club, a bit more expensive Glenfiddich 15 or 18, my favourite single malts
A treat are some of the Japanese whiskies, Hibiki is nice, but getting dear

As a Welshman I have to like Penderyn, its the rules. There's a little hint of vanilla in there and it goes down very nicely.
The nicest one on the cheaper end of the scale for me is famous grouse. Quite a smoky woody taste there.
I am very partial to a Jamesons. Your Irish whiskey is more of a smooth taste.
Favourite scotch is Glenffidich. If you want to splash out on yourself the 15 is fantastic.
I've got a bottle of monkey shoulder but I haven't got around to trying it. I've heard good things though.
If you're after a bourbon, gentleman Jack is far superior to normal Jack. Also Jack honey is very nice for something a bit different.
I've rambled but hopefully something I've said is of use 😅

I got a Japanese whisky when I was best man at a wedding. The bottle lasted longer than his marriage.

Wonder who should take this as an insult, the whisky or the marriage. I'm thinking the whisky

Ardbeg and Laphroaig are king for me! Has anyone else tried Jameson's Black Barrel?

Japanese whiskeys a re great.
My favourite is a blend called Habiki from santori whiskey. If you prefer single malts they do one called Yamazki.

Black Barrel is too smokey. I do not like it, but if you like smokey (many do) it is worth the money.

Not tried that.

Ardbeg wee beastie I bought just before Christmas and it's excellent £35 ish, young whisky very peaty and medicinal, almost a star anise character on the nose.

I would highly recommend Black Barrel. If you get the chance, go to Bushmills distillery!

Lagavulin 16 Yr is a good staple for any household. Solid peat level but layered, with an array of sweet notes coming through the smoke for a nice finish.
