If we're talking about Scots Whisky then do you have any idea as to whether he has a regional preference. Whisky from Islay and other islands is a very different taste from Highland or Speyside. Lowland is another animal too. New distilleries are bringing whisky production to new areas, or at least places from which it was long gone. The Harris distillery's product is still a year or two from maturity but Lewis's product is now available. www.abhainndearg.co.uk/index.php/distillery-shop/distillery-shop

Like me, he enjoys multiple styles, although he probably leans towards Speyside. I’m thinking I’ll go with Vić’s teapot suggestion. I can be pretty sure he won’t have tasted that one as it’s not released until tomorrow.

Mine too. Also daughter, sister, brother-in-law, niece, couple of good friends. And Burns Night.
Dry January does not get observed in my world.

Teapot Dram 007 duly ordered — plus a couple of wintertime treats for the family while I was in there. Thanks for all the ideas.

It’s from three of us, all of whom owe this chap some gratitude in terms of career mentoring and other things. He’s been good to us, so this feels appropriate.
