Educating my Other Half

For all the time I have been going out with my other half he hasn't been a fan of whisky. Until this summer, when we went to Edradour distillery near Pitlochry. Surprisingly he liked it. Then he tried Laphroaig Quarter Cask and liked that.

We're now in the happy position of trying various different types of whisky. So far we have tried an awful lot... Glengoyne, Edradour, Edradour Cask Finish, Ballechin, Bunnahabhain, the Balvenie, Auchentoshan, Highland Park, Jura, Jura Superstition, Tallisker, Tobermory, Glenkinchie, Dalmore, Ardbeg....and there are a lot more, we've started keeping a list.

He even bought a book by Ian Banks where he travelled around Scotland visiting various distilleries, with various nice cars. Good book, would reccommend it - its just a bad influence on those who like whisky...

Speaking of which, a wee nip wouldn't be a terrible thing, would it?
