Happy Birthday to me!!!!


Last Thursday, Feb 11, I turned 36, and in the morning, while at work, I got an email from Friends of Laphroaig that for that day only I could have a further 10% on the Friends' online shop...so being Laphroaig one of my favorite malts, and being some Laphroaig expression in my wishlist, I quickly made a few calculations to check whether it was worth it and I ended up giving myself a bottle of Quarter Cask (£23.81) and...drum roll please...a bottle of 18 year Old (£52.65)!!!!

Plus an honest £7.95 for shipping and handling...still cheaper than in any shop here in London.

So think about it...if you're a Friend of Laphroaig (and enjoy their whiskies), there may be one more reason to look forward to your Birthday.

Thank you Laphroaig!

  1. Happy Birthday!

    I just bought a bottle of Laphroaig 18 year on EBay at a pretty good price. We'll have to compare notes...

    Cheers,
    Jeff

  3. Happy birthday and congrats on the good buy at Laphroaig! I had the Laph18 at WhiskyFest in New York City and, to say the least, I was wowed. Cracking stuff indeed! Best of luck with your blog! Looking forward to reading more notes.
