What kind of shite are you swallowing?
You’d need another 0 on the price before Baron Didsbury would consider it.

I take it no one normal has consumed it either so?
Sure at that price you could chance it. If you don’t like it you can ship it over to Lord Lancashire and he can clean the drains or rub it into greyhounds.

He’d probably turn his nose up at it if it was delivered by thr finest carrier pigeon in the land.
Don’t be looking for normal on tfk
Alcohol is a poison. This is sadly a fact. Every bit you drink poisons your organs, muscles, skin, everything. I still drink, but if I’m going to poison myself slowly, I’d rather do it with decent poison. I don’t drink whiskey hardly at all, I don’t like it. If I do take a drop I take a good one. Same with wine. I drink decent Guinness when I can.

Hence the expression “what’s your poison?”
This is getting into pure gouging territory now

This is indeed silly stuff as @Mac said and disappointing from Mitchell and sons. The spot range is being sullied with this craic, yellow meant 10yr old and was sold for around €80 and you’d no bother getting a bottle and it should have remained like that. I know they’re bringing out a Gold Spot they could have left the gouging with that instead of meddling in the core range.
I find this item confusing. Do the bottles derive from a single cask – meaning there would be 250 bottles or fewer available – or are the bottles bottled at cask strength? 57% is suspiciously neat for a single cask bottled at natural strength. The ad also mentions “bourbon barrels”. I suspect several barrels were filled with distillate produced on December 11, 2007. But this scenario, if accurate, does not correspond to a true single cask bottling.

All its missing is a special 10 or 20 quid discount for folks who signed up to that members club which is also a complete rip off. They do this well - I expect all bottles to sell out.
True, I would say. Irish whiskey is in the grip of irrational exuberance, methinks.
Drank a couple of Cresteds followed by a Redbreast 12 the other night in a pub, after I had earlier finished something difficult. Really enjoyable. I am happy enough to wade no further into whiskey at the minute. There is something joyless about all this carry on.

It’s gone sideways, you get the gist.
