I'm drinking Gouden Carolus, Belgian Single Malt. It is very sweet.

Hi Groundhog, yes it is, very pale. It just says 'bottled by Morrison & Mackay' and their website doesn't say anything more. A Google search comes up with 'A single malt Scotch whisky from an undisclosed distillery on Islay'.

That milestone deserves a glass of something to celebrate, Nick.

I've just embarked on a bottle of Glenlivet Founder's Reserve. I don't think I've tried it before.

NC, some detective work is called for. I suggest you get a sample of every Islay single malt out there to compare with the mysterious Strand.

"The Big Strand"is actually one of the many to come out of the Caol Ila factory these days.

A friend is one of the distillers at Mortlach, I keep meaning to pick up another bottle of theirs, the new 16 yo is supposed to be very nice.

I met a friend of a friend last night who lives across the road from the Penderyn distillery and sometimes gives tours there. Handy that he doesn't have to drive to work.
