  • black rory has it's roots just a few miles from my house! ^_^

    anyway, all of this talking with you has motivated me to kickstart the distillery crawl planning and I've found a lovely little cluster of distilleries all within a 30ish mile area. it's in the speyside region about 60 miles northwest of Aberdeen.

    here's a map of all the distilleries that we could visit from our proposed base camp.

    obviously it would probably be impractical/suicidal to visit them all so we're working on narrowing the list down a little. Obviously MacAllan is on the list and will likely be a highlight, Glenfiddich and Glen Grant are up there too. Spot any names on that map that you'd recommend?

    sorry if i'm bugging you but unfortunately for you it is your duty as a whisky-drinking Scot to assist me with this kind of thing!
    uncultured sheep? I never said anything of the sort! Suppose I did imply it a little though...trust a whisky drinker to pick up on subtle undertones :P

    (oh my god that joke was so bad, bet I will regret saying that in a few hours)

    if you want a few more names, i can link you to the menu from my local haunt. this place introduced me to the joys of whisky so anything on this list comes with my full endorsement

    cant link you directly to it since its PDF but just click on Whisky List. Humour me and tell me if you're familar with any of them.
    I know of MacAllan, had a single about a month back. Don't take this the wrong way, but I'm impressed at the variety and quality of whisky available over there. You've rang off a couple of the best names that I know of. how readily available is it...I'd have thought you'd have to order it specially. what do they generally serve in bars? Around here, most bars just serve the 'usual shit' ... the general selection being Bells, Teachers and Famous Grouse but we have a few specialist pubs dotted around where you can get the real highland brands. Still, I live just outside Scotland and I can struggle at times so I'm shocked to here somebody on the other side of the world talking like this.

    will keep you updated on our distillery crawl plans...sounds like you really miss Scotland haha ;p
    nope, don't believe I have good sir. shall i take this as a recommendation? me and my pal from Aberdeen have been entertaining the idea of taking a 'distillery crawl' around the Highlands this summer and, after googling the location of the old fettercairn brewery, it seems like it might be within our range so maybe i'll be able to discuss it with you in a few months time? will keep an eye out for it the meanwhile. I see you drink Glenmorangie...one of my favourites! soft and fruity but in a manly way! You tried any of the others I listed? Oh, and I forgot to mention Speyburn, that's great too. Would welcome any suggestions really
    lol he got into a stupid fight with glen. idk how long it's for this time-- i forget.

    and how were we not smogon friends before now?!?!?! lol
    oh god....yeah, our stupid adoration talk is out of hand and remarkably trollish
    I just had your avatar, macle's, and the giratina gif on my page all at once.

    *epilepsy*
    As for where that picture came from, I just went to Build a Bear on Saturday, and they had snowy owls. I thought it was super-cute, so I got it ^_^ And then I photoshopped a webcam photo of it to look like your (rather frightening) avatar :P
    Perfectly fine with wednesday. Will be a bit to busy tonight and my AIM SN is : Gymlockeropener
    Okay thank you for messaging me. I am glad that you have AIM since this will make contacting each other and setting up sessions quite easy. We will get the introductory session done a.s.a.p!
