A brilliant French (!) single-malt whisky happened.
I never knew the french did that. I usually stick to the Scottish single malts.
I didn't either, until a friend recommended it. This one. And here's the link to the distillery. Something doesn't work on that page, though.
since, as most folk know , i'm teetotal, should perhaps explain that i used to drink. way back in my youth, and single malt was once a favourite tipple off mine (when i could afford it, which was rarely , TBH)
I even continued to buy a bottle of the single malt every Christmas (up to just a few years ago) just so as i could offer a decent drink to random visitors. Then i developed the dreaded gluten intolerance
and cos i didn't drink, didn't need to think about which alcoholic beverages i had to avoid on that account... not until
after one Christmas Eve, when one such visitor praised my single malt to the high heavens and persuaded me to try just a little sip of it.
All I can (i.e. want to) say is that i was ever so glad that the vistor had gone by the time the symptoms hit. And you won't catch me repeating
that mistake.
But now I'm wondering, do you (surprisingly numerous) whisky fans on this forum
not have an issue with gluten, then?
