Does anyone know much about WHISKEY?

Question

or more accurately Cutty Sark Whiskey, its delicious and seems to be available in every bloomin country except here in England. Am I wrong or does anyone know where I can buy it?

Answer 1

It can be bought in the UK. Like a number of other internationally well-known brands though, it tends to focus on the international market. It's a blend, and not an amazing blend (although my Grandfather swore by it and I don't mind it). With Scotland so close, there are far better blends and of course the single malts readily available - for example, try the cheaper blend Black Bottle for a better whisky - and so it doesn't get much play over here.

You could contact the distributor for a local supplier:
MAXXIUM UK LTD
MAXXIUM HOUSE
CASTLE BUSINESS PARK
STIRLING

Or you could check the website:

I think it can be found at larger Sainsburys stores if that helps.

Answer 2

Cutty Sark is usually available in the cheaper Off-Licences or the shelves of smaller supermarkets.

Incidentally, Scotch (blend or malt) is always WHISKY, without an "e".
The stuff made anywhere else in the world is Whiskey.

Answer 3

Cutty Sark is ok, but I have a hard time believing there isn't something a whole lot better for the same price in the UK. You're attached to Scotland for crying out loud. Chivas?

Answer 4

i know one thing,the last time i woke up after drinking whiskey i wish i was on the cutty sark,coz i would of jumped off.

Answer 5

I agree with you, as with Johnnie Walker black label, it is entirely shipped off for export. One or two specialist shops sell it, but not near me. Last time I saw it on sale was at the duty free at Gatwick.

Answer 6

Fettercairn is a good one too. Very pleasant and I'm not a whisky drinker. A wee dram is ok for me though.

Answer 7

If you were legit and in the UK you would spell "whisky" correctly.
