Where to buy decent Whiskey online ?

SusanC10 · 12-10-2020 6:14pm #1

Would like to get my Husband a decent bottle of Whiskey for Christmas. Something Scottish.
He normally gets some in Duty Free as he used to travel a lot for work pre-Covid.

Ideally online.

TIA.

Bushmills do a personalised bottle of whiskey https://shop.bushmills.com/collections/all Its a Distillery Reserve and you can get a label printed with a message on it. We have done this for two people and both of them loved it.

Kilbeggan also does some nice whiskeys https://www.kilbegganwhiskey.com/

They are from Speyside region.

Reckon Macallan will fit the bill.

This looks perfect. Thank you !

Dh loves the Auchentoshen whiskeys. You'd probably get a bottle in the €50-€60 range.

I also love green spot. Not Scottish of course, but an Irish pot stil. I have much more expensive whiskeys but I always end up going back to the green spot for my evening tipple. It has that perfect flavour v price ratio.

Dublin Liberties Distillery have a 10 year Irish single malt, with branded Tuath whiskey tasting glass included for €55.
That price includes delivery to anywhere on island of Ireland.
Very nice whiskey, imo as good as any 10 year single malt Scotch at that price.
https://thedld.com/irish-whiskey/single-malt/the-liberties-whiskey-copper-alley/

From same site, you can also get a personalised bottle of the Dublin Liberties Irish Whiskey 'Oak Devil' for €45 inc. delivery.
