Whisky Exchange

I popped over to do some business with Sukhinder of the Whisky Exchange London this week. A nice chap and he pored me two good drams. A highly sherried Glen Grant costing around 90 quid a bottle and a refill sherry springbank at half the price.

Springbank 1993 / 13 Year old / R. Sherry Butt / 70cl / 58.7% / Speciality Drinks Ltd

A bit of sherry on the nose with fruits. Soon smoke overtakes and I had what I call farm yard on the taste. One good drop of springbank. Shame I had to down this as the taxi was arriving.

Glen Grant 1972 / 34 Year old / Sherry Cask

Christmas cake wooden boxes and all that comes of first fill sherry and age. Lovely stuff and deservedly award winning.

Both these drams can be ordered from the Whisky Exchange.

I walked out with a pocket full of cash 5 bbruichladdich 17s in the post plus two bottles for a friend and was happy with the profit I’d made from 5 Ardbegs and a Laphroaig. I may have been able to get more on ebay but I didn’t want the hassle.
