While waiting for the green to arrive...

...is there anyone here that enjoys a dram of whisky? Personally I have a 3 hobbies, basically all of them matured just a few years ago: Photography (aprox. 5 years ago), Whisky (aprox. 3-5 years ago) and last but NOT least Puzzles (less then a year ago, when I discovered that there are quality puzzles being made)

So anyone else that enjoys a dram once in a while, and if so what kind?
Personally I'm drawn to to the more smoky (Islay) kinds like Ardbeg, Laphroaig, Caol Ila, Bruichladdich etc. I have even started to collect a few bottles and it competes with my puzzles purchases for money (quality ain't cheap no matter what the hobby might be :D )

Rum ain't bad either... the best rum I ever tasted was Bundaberg rum (with coke), I used to share an apartment with a college and friend in Montreal, Canada when I lived there. He is from "down under" and he brought that with him, never really liked rum until I tasted that.

The keyboard/piano player in my band is from 'down under'. She brought back some Bundaberg. Had a bottle each - I thought I was going to actually die. That stuff is potentially lethal - especially the 'out of town' variety....

Hahaha :lol: :lol: :lol: Never tasted the 'out of town' version, but it's funny to see that one thing can taste so different, to different people. (on the other hand my taste buts might be totally out of whack from drinking whisky :) )
