<P>Greetings all.</P>
<P>I stopped into a liquor store today that I hadn't been in for a year or so.
Last time I had been there, they carried over 200 single malts, including
a very nice selection of independent, single cask stuff. Got there today to
find they've had a change of ownership and the new owners only want to sell
what they can move at a higher volume, so they've dropped the SM
inventory down to about 80 at this point. Bad news that, but with a potential
silver lining in that cloud. They have a few rare bottlings from days past
that they apparently don't want cluttering their shelves that seem to be
decent values. I don't have personal experience with any of these, but was
wondering if anyone has any recollections or comments on the following. I'm
including their prices (US $$), and any opinions as to whether they are,
in fact, a good value would be greatly appreciated. Here goes:</P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt">Adelphi Aberfeldy, 15 y.o.,
cask # 343, 59.6% - $46</P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt">Adelphi Benriach, 11 y.o., cask
# 2838, 63.5% - $50</P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt">Adelphi Clynelish, 10 y.o.,
cask # 6079, 61.5%, $46</P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt">Glenhaven Glenfarclas, 17 y.o.,
Oct. ’77-Oct.’94, 53.2% - $88</P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt">Glenhaven Dufftown-Glenlivet,
11 y.o., Nov. ’82-Oct. ’94, 60% - $77</P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt">Glenhaven Fettercairn, 10 y.o.,
Nov. ’85-June ’96, 63% - $77</P>
<P>They also had The Wild Scotsman 15 y.o. vatted malt at $40, and although I
think I tried it at a past WhiskyFest I have no recollection of the experience
(got there after visiting too many other tables), so impressions of it are
welcome as well. I would like to support my undoubtedly distant clansman John
McDougall, particularly if he leaves me in his single malt will (you out
there, John??).</P>
<P>Thanks for any help you can provide.</P>
<P>Ken MacDougall</P>
