The Whistler The Blue Note...
...is a fine Irish malt whiskey that's recently appeared in the marketplace. I've tried the 7-year old version, and come away very impressed. You can have a 'sneak taste' of it HERE on the CW Home Page.

Interesting. Might have to give it a try.
I have to say, Doug, you could make Dewar's palatable with your descriptions.:up:

I'd probably leave that challenge to Sean Connery, who did advertisements for Dewar's some time ago that incorporated the slogan, "Some things age, others mature." Personally, I feel age (whisky-wise, at least... life-wise, I'm still not sure) is often overrated.

I do know that Dewar's tastes like Robitussin to me.

The 18-year old Dewar's is a superior blend (at least to my palate), however... Higher malt content (obviously led by some well-matured Aberfeldy) and more polished to boot.

Dang it Doug, another tantalizing write up that has me out yet again on the hunt!
Well done sir!
