hi Dan

I have tried (too) many whiskeys in my time both Scotch and Irish.

The McaCallan for me is the best I have tasted and my wife , Jane, who is not really a drinker and who normally dislikes whiskeys really enjoys The MacCallan.

Some years ago I bought a bottle of MacCallan for a Spanish friend who lived in Spain. I took it out and gave it to him. He thanked me very much and we did not see him for a few years. When we went to see he pulled out the bottle I had given him unopened !! He gave us a tot and took one himself. I asked why he hadn't opened it - he replied "it is too good to for me to drink and expensive so I have waited for you to return and we drink together".

At the moment I have a bottle of Jameson Select Reserve Small Batch which is excellent but not as good as The MacCallan.

Cheers raising my glass

Mike
