    Check Ts&Cs.. Parcel Motel prohibit alcohol, not sure about the others.

    Hard to know, they just had the box out on the shelf (empty). I brought it up to the register and she got the bottle from the back and put the empty box back out on the shelf, so hard to say how many were left but certainly worth a try if you can get there tonight.

    They won't deliver to Ireland though. Mainland UK only.

    Nice one I'll go have a look tonight after work. A friend went into the one in Terenure on Tuesday and asked but they hadn't got them in so we assumed they wouldn't be getting any at all.

    I've had bottles delivered from amazon through PM with no hassle before, set up an account on AddressPal and going to take the risk with them too, fingers crossed.

    It does have a more general prohibition on liquids though...

    Checked an Aldi at lunch, they never got it in yet but to keep checking back as it is due in. They said it will be available up until Christmas, not just a "special" this week as a one off.

    Celbridge out. Maynooth never stocked. Someone ahead of me in the queue asked!

    I managed to get my hands on a bottle in Celbridge yesterday. There was an empty container on the shelf that I brought to the counter. Hope you get your hand on some L1011

    They must be in GB. Aldi UK only has stores in, and delivers to, GB.

    Early Cooley wasn't the best at the time, so if it is Cooley it may just be quite poor

    I would not agree with that. Early Cooley was 'young'at the time, but the spirit was good, as the Cadenhead bottlings show.

    I think this is double distilled, unpeated Bushmills being sold below cost price.

    It is a lovely, fruity whiskey. Can't detect any peat. A massive bargain.

    Isn't all Bushmills triple distilled? Does the 26 year old 'taste' triple distilled? I'm not really a fan of that style of whiskey - I much prefer the double distilled method. I'll buy a bottle if I can get hold of one though.
