Subject: RE: BS: Oh yes Mcallum Scotch (!Macallan!)
I'm on the Glenlivet tonight.

I was given it for my birthday a couple of weeks ago.

Just add enough water to bring it down from about 40% to about 30% and the flavour just overcomes you.

Warm, cosy, golden ... I might even be tempted to say "Oh Yes" ...

Oh dear, Lox, you and I are about to have out first spat! ;-) I've tried this "adding water" malarkey and I fear it is (euphemisms here? No, do the man a favour...) anathema. A tragedy. A travesty, even. Surely one's mouth waters so much at the very thought of a fine malt that no such further addition is necessary? My view is that no water should ever be taken for any reason once the sun is below the yardarm. Especially not in malt!
