Welsh Scotch

[Cobbydaler]

Rebirth of Welsh whisky (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/7374969.stm) spirit.


Based at the Penderyn Distillery in the tiny village of the same name in the Brecon Beacons National Park, since 2000 it has been the smallest distillery in the British Isles.
Making just two barrels of Penderyn single malt whisky per day, it has a long way to go to beat the sales figures of the Scottish and Irish giants.

"Maturing whisky likes bad weather," says Ms Howell.
"Thankfully, it can be very wet and depressing in Wales, so we have perfect conditions."Wet & depressing, but not irritating then... ;)

Prefer the toffee flavours of a Bourbon here

Just because its 25 years old doesnt make it good. Garbage in garbage out, admittedly it will improve. I've tasted some very old scotches and some of them were very poor
