Hmm
I'm currently sipping a 3 year old single malt whisky.
Yes, 3. Not 30, this was distilled in 2007 and bottled last year, which makes me feel like a child molester.
And yet it's not bad at all. Damn, I think this may be the Lolita of Whiskies.
It's 46% strength, matured in Bourbon barrels, delightfully pale. Designed by a former distiller from Laphroiag, but not peaty.
Oh, and it's English, from Norfolk.
I'll be intrigued to see how they develop over the next few years - I trust they're keeping some of the casks to age a bit longer.
