Recently obtained a couple of new whiskies, Talisker 25 year old, opening date to be decided, and a Monkey Shoulder - Smokey Monkey, which is my current evening dram. I just love trying the whiskies I haven't had before as well as the old favourites. Do you have favourite whiskies or a favourite distillery or like me a bit of a list of favourites?

Does look very interesting :)
Still adding to the list of favourites.
think I might try
Hey Paul... Loving your current choices. You may remember that we gave away a Talisker 25 some time ago. My current favourite evening whisky is the Chivas 18, just love the caramel/toffee notes. On another level, I have a bottle of Jura 21 (the 200 bottling) on the go. Big Jura fan all round :)
I must confess I haven't really tried that many of the Jura range, must broaden my horizon's in that direction in the future. I find it's nice to have an idea of what to try next :-)
@Paul Slade Let me know how you get on with it. If I was going to recommend one to start with, I would suggest the Elixir. It is a surprising combination of fruity spiciness. Less peaty than many in the range, but possibly the perfect whisky to drink with a mince pie at Christmas.
I've got to be honest & admit that I tend to gravitate to anything Laphroaig but at the moment I'm loving Talisker Storm.
Hi @Barrie Bullock Have to agree with you on the T-Storm. A really lovely drop.
Love a bottle of Monkey Shoulder! Got a bottle in the work Xmas whip last year, result!
Hi @Harry Truss Monkey Shoulder is an interesting one. I have heard a lot of negative comments about it which is a little sad in my opinion. Personally I think it is a really smooth drop. Certainly an easy drinker. I always have a bottle sitting on my bar.
