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.
^ To be honest, if I'm in a pub in the UK and fancy a nightcap I'll often have a Famous Grouse to save wasting money on a malt when it really makes no difference anyway.
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.
Shudder. Southern comfort is horrendous.
^ fair but then again we are talking about the cheaper options
^^ not a fan
^^^Famous Grouse over Bells or JB if neat but JB is nice with soda and ice in a hot climate like Bangkok
I got partially de-bollocked going over a small bump t'other day. The Christams tree decorations are not really up to the rigours of bike touring
I fixed her up lastnight with string and super-glue and we were back in business today
I took the time and patience to arrange one hanging lower than the other this time for added testicle-ticity
Today's drink was another mango sugar overload. I went extra hard on the exercise bike when I got home powered by mango-fructose
Been wondering what to do with the rest of Stumpy's recommendation. I might give the lemonade whirl.
I had one of those Mango monsters today,certainly hit the spot.
Alas no Nobby's nuts..

^Very nice Joe, ill be having plenty of port tomorrow, my parents get through a wee bit
Never tried Glenmorangie
'This zesty and rounded single malt pays homage to the lightly peated whisky of Glenmorangie’s past. this expression explores the distillery’s past, paying tribute to the historic use of peat fired kiln Aged in American oak bourbon casks for smoothness, the 16-year-old Tribute delights with its creamy vanilla and zesty citrus notes.'
historic use of peat fired kiln ooooooooooff
One should listen twice as much as one speaks
Also very easily obtained in these parts, thus stocked in my bar next to the Grouse.
Top shelf is currently Jura, as it my home option.
Santa's getting a stiff Jura tonight and I've got a bottle of Rose for tomorrow and a bottle of red needs opening (making French Onion Soup).
Then off to the bar to prepare a free Xmas Dinner.
There will be a charity collection.
Lang may yer lum reek...
^^ the ultimate Peat, nice!
