The cranberry honey isn't quite as nice as I thought it would be.

Not one, not two, but 67.5 grams of sugar! I think I have instant-onset diabetes. :(
Obviously there was only one thing I could do, go and buy up a load of sugary, Xmasy treats to confuse the body. An overloaded sugar processing system can't process sugar if its overloaded, right?

As luck would have it today is Saturday, the Sabbath, the holy day God himself designated as international cheat day. It would be wrong to not observe the customs of the Lord.
It is a shocker isn't it. Although it is a big 500ml can and Coca Cola comes in at 52g per 500ml so not far behind.Quote:

Damn. I've glanced at such things since watching 'That Sugar Film', but don't drink fizzy drinks so never looked at a bottle/can of Coke.Quote:

Better strap up, as I'm in for a journey through layers of complexity and contentment with every sip.

How did they manage to make it twice as fizzy?
With twice the heavy flavour?
They could have at least kept it going and made it 10%.
I've got two in the fridge. Worth going for?Quote:

This was duty free.its usually how I find Takisker. Though sometimes Ive spotted (and immediately purchased) the odd bottle in the shops here. Its really quite hit and miss.
Well, they're not lying. Their distillery is right by the sea.
Though not right by a cliff. :D

Yea similar price in Sainsbury's but it was on for 28quid in Amazon. Jack and cokes slip down aye, Southern Comfort and lemonade isn't too bad either. A nice blended whiskey and some Canada Dry ginger ale, nice as well. All very easy to drink.
Same-day delivery here via Amazon, but I prefer bourbon.Quote:

Years ago I used to buy Famous Grouse at duty free when I was regularly flying within Europe (pre EU stuff). These days I always get a single malt at duty free, purely because it is so difficult to buy a decent whisky at a reasonable price in Thailand.
I find Famous Grouse perfectly acceptable and not a bad tipple at all.
Bells however is a different matter.
