It's a whisky cellar in London.

I try there before I buy anything, but it's not cheap.

After that visit I bought three bottles - ardbeg 10, the ardbeg uigedal, and the bunnahabain 12.

Surprisingly they mostly trade on bottles that are between £40-£80 to stock, that's why they're out like that, a dram is £15 and you can soon clock up hundreds.

Most of the cabinet are those bottles, if you want to try older whisky; they are off the menu and under lock and key.

Old stuff like 30 year old tallisker for example I've had, but can't justify buying a whole bottle for myself. Recently I thought about getting a 38 year old bunnahabhain and just holding on to it, it's not expensive now, but once the 500 bottles have been lost to the market; the price will go up.

If there was a better marketplace that I could resell on, I would do that kind of thing more often, but eBay is crap now and doesn't even allow alcohol anyway.

You'll probably make a topic about it in gc and I'll reply there.

Pretty much anyone from GC who does anything - they make a thread about it.

"Look what I just found in my trash" threads and so on.. so if you travel to Scotland, you'll definitely definitely make a thread about it.

You finish these before you buy others or do you buy sporadically?
