TimHepplestone Posted December 25, 2018 Share Posted December 25, 2018 I’ve got seriously lucky this Christmas. Now the only question is, which to start on first. The Lanc or the Laphroaig? Stevepd, Trak-Tor, reconspit and 7 others 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monthebiff Posted December 25, 2018 Share Posted December 25, 2018 The Balvenie followed by the Land!! Regards.Andy TimHepplestone and Phartycr0c 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonH Posted December 25, 2018 Share Posted December 25, 2018 It's obvious: Laphroaig while you open the box and fondle the plastic Balvenie to sip during the build. Merry Christmas! Phartycr0c, Rick Griewski, TimHepplestone and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanG Posted December 25, 2018 Share Posted December 25, 2018 Laphroaig? Isn't that what hospitals use to clean their floors with I'm more of a Jura or Cardhu type of guy (if it has to be a whisky). Don't like drinking TCP flavoured whisky lol monthebiff 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mistral Posted December 25, 2018 Share Posted December 25, 2018 I strongly suggest you dunk the sprues in a bowl of Balvenie to clean them of mold release agent and then drink lots of Laphroaig whilst cutting off the fiddly bits to keep your hand steady Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevepd Posted December 25, 2018 Share Posted December 25, 2018 Start the Lanc and each night have a sip for every bit you cut off a sprue. Steve. Gazzas 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, I have a bottle of that at the moment and it's super smooth. Try the 17 year old double wood, it's like nectar!! Regards.Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick Griewski Posted December 27, 2018 Share Posted December 27, 2018 What a stitch. I did bench time on the Mars Attacks - Martian Warrior earlier and now my wife and I are having a taste of Auchentoshan 12 year. One of the 6 brought back after the Scotland trip this past May. I have to build first then have the reward. Happy New Year. Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
