The biggest beast in the jungle, even if its roar has become more muted in recent years. ‘Love it or hate it,’ as one Laphroaig advert rather boldy put it, but you just can’t ignore it.
    Sounds good to me!

    well we have a place called Laihia in ostrobothina where actually the coins are an oval in caricatures....but instead of tapestry those people at Laihia (Skimpy in English) used actually newspapers...

    There are three basic non blended. highlands, lowlands, and islay. The other kind is blended (Johnie red/black for example)

    highlands is the safe bet for non blended.

    Islay has a strong peat moss taste from the water where it comes from...

    Well, I was wearing my Sunday wife-beater, and you did come visit me at the double-wide, I can see why you thought you were among near royalty.
    Truth is, I'm common folk just like you, the M/D would have been fine with the twinkies we had as an appetizer for the grilled spam cutlets.
