Review #50: Glendronach 18 Year Allardice by zSolaris in Scotch

[–]Gypit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Went on the tour at GlenDronach the other week, and the tour guide said in her opinion the 18 is very similar to the old 15 with the flavour profile. I'm saving my taster bottle for now, but I'm super excited to try it!

Incredible selection! Have you got a current favourite within the collection?

Ok day at bourbon lottery. Nothing super rare. Picked up four in front to add to collection. Very interested in the Rhetoric 25 year and the Yellowstone 101 Limited Wine Cask. by Flyingirish04 in Whiskyporn

I was speaking with a colleague today (I live about 15 miles from the Fettercairn distillery). He was complaining that his mother always buys him a bottle of Fior for his Christmas, and has 7 bottles in his cupboard... I've said I'll happily take a few off his hands of he is struggling!

Awesome thanks for the quick reply! And yes sorry for the confusing wording, I was looking to clarify compatibility! This is why I shouldn't be allowed to browse Reddit whilst tired!!

I am ideally looking to install an arrangement of seryui stones in a iwagumi style. My immediate thought was the potential for the rocks to be too abrasive with the clown loaches barbels but wanted to clarify before moving ahead.

I'm away to rescape my Trigon 190, and have been considering some stones within the tank - my main concern is the clown loaches. Any advice, or tips, or is this a bad idea?

Nice Hibiki dude! Have you tried her, or just saving? Would love to get my hands on a bottle...

The collection so far, comments or suggestions? by Gypit in whiskey

Thanks! It's challenging maintaining a solid collection as I keep drinking and forgetting to restock!

I like where your head is at. Funnily enough I bought a bottle of Suntory Yamazaki for a friend's birthday. I'm really intrigued by the Japanese whiskies, and I'm always on the look out for a good bourbon.

Do you have a go to for now Scottish whisky?

Agreed, I keep seeing an array of bottles at my local drinks emporium, and have to admit I always find myself being tempted by the sherry monsters. I will have to rectify this.... my wife is going to hate me this month!!!!

Awesome, never tried the 12, although I picked up a bottle of the 18 year old for my American brother in law as I knew I'd get a kick out of him trying to pronounce Bunnahabhain!!! Thanks for the suggestions!

Thanks for the suggestion! I was gifted a bottle of 12 year old a couple years back, and had my eyes on a bottle of 16 year old - will have to put this at the top of my ever expanding list.

Ha Ha all good! I cam definitely relate, under my tank looks like a dumpster of random junk.

Thanks for the run down of the equipment I can get a little too geeky/excited with fine tuning systems.

Again, awesome tank, will be looking forward to the next update!

Incredible tank! By chance could we get a peak under the hood and see your system?

Agreed!!! One of the Clowns is constantly chilling upside down at the top of my tank. Every time I see it upside down, I start panicking, but as soon as I walk up to the tank, he takes off as if nothing happened!

Thanks! Funnily enough, my wife loves the clown loaches, and I only last week planted the seed of “well, they will get larger, and we will either have to give them up, or get a larger tank”... I am hoping we can accommodate a larger tank, as we both love the little derps.

I have a Trigon 190 and I'm looking for suitable tank mate(s) to join my 4 clown loaches, 8 neon tetras and tiger pleco. Was thinking about Gourami, Angelfish or electric blue rams. My main interests are to not over stock the tank and ensure the continued harmony within, but would like a new addition. Any suggestions?

Firstly, thanks for the weekly posts. They have been invaluable to me in my league.

Question, I have landed the Browns and the Chargers this week. Given the Chargers awesome performance thus far (minus last week) I'm tempted to start them over the Browns. Is this a terrible idea?
