I just love Delius, Brian in UK. Reviewer in Fanfare also mentioned Vaughan Williams, another favorite of mine.

@Brian: Yep, I miss them a lot. Already bought about 20 tickets for next season, more to come. I know most shows will not take place (maybe none at all), but if nobody buys tickets, there will be no dance company left by the end of the year

Dean, I played 'On Hearing the First Cuckoo in Spring' a while back. Then my wife heard one later that evening in the garden., by the time she called me it was gone.

Bas, that Càrn Mòr Loch Lomond 8 year old is a rare bottle you got there.
Avatar 🚂 Swag For Life Member 5:28pm
Bas NL:

@Stanley Yes it was! I understand him craving the taste! ;) And yes, the Càrn Mòr is just 2 cask/800 bottles. I got a good source for nice whisky's..

@Stanley: Cask strength is the way to go for me. I usually don't add water (and definitely not ice, ever). Casks that can be bottled straight are the best ones (still filtered, the unfiltered kind is rare, at least over here)

I get a kick out Peter Warlock's remark that V-W's work is "a little too much like a cow looking over a gate," but it's a bad rap. Elgar, V-W, Delius, Bax, Finzi, the so-called pastoral composers, could be really inventive and interesting.

Dean, a bit like Impressionists painters being called chocolate box artists. Nothing wrong with atmospheric painting or music for me. Alfred Sisley rules.

Unless you belong to a society, like I do, it's difficult and expensive to find single cask bottlings. However, many distilleries have them and often with exotic cask finishes but only for sale if you visit. Worth a trip to Scotland for that.

There's one tasting couple of times a year i visit a lot where the organizer imports directly from the distilleries. He's even got his own reserved casks. But you are right, i'll have to visit Scotland badly.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:40pm
fred:

@Stanley: I'm not fond of exotic cask finishes. My tastes run to the basics (and peat). I can no longer afford the great stuff all that often, and I'm not part of any society, but having had better days and being a long time customer of a shop in Paris I had the occasional chance to get a sip of the samples they brought back when selecting casks for their own bottling. Spectacular

David Dichelle:

Brian, is that the first time Ireland has beat England?
Avatar 🚂 Swag For Life Member 5:42pm
Brian in UK:

No, but a serious run chase, very well played.
Avatar 🚂 Swag For Life Member 5:42pm
Stanley:

Bas - I tried to drum up support to club together and make a resevation on a cask a few years ago but unfortunately it was a hard sell, especially to my older friends, who thought the wait might outlast them.

On our tastings we've had examples of casks that had gone bad.. it happens. You are NOT happy if your one cask goes bad!

It has been a long time since I've had a good single malt. I should nose around the specialty shops here. Used to shop at a store in Manhattan Beach in SoCal. One day I strolled in as they were opening a Macallan 25! Samples for all.

@Bas: that also plays into the high quality of Taiwanese whisky without as much aging
Avatar 🚂 Swag For Life Member 5:51pm
Stanley:

Brian - I thought cool, Scottish type weather was of paramount importance. That view was also taken by the Japenese master Masataka Taketsuru, when he set up his distilleries in Hokkaido, Japan's coldest region. Then I learnt about malt whisky being produced in Goa, India and was reliably informed on these boards, no less, that warmer weather accelerates the ageing process.
Avatar 🚂 Swag For Life Member 5:52pm
Stanley:

I refer to Bas's experience above.

Dean:

Drinking also accelerates the aging process.
Avatar 🚂 Swag For Life Member 5:53pm

I'm sure that's it @fred! But in general there are very good whiskies emerging from Asia. They've found a taste for it and are getting GOOD in production.
