Toni, you're making me jealous because I ordered a pair of chukkas and they got lost / massively delayed in the post.

Well, I probably need chukkas more than you do - it's been snowing for the past three days. I imagine one can still wear loafers in Italy. I do hope your chukkas will arrive safely though.

I know you were aiming this at cs09, but I'll chime in anyway as a big whiskey fan...

Do you know what the person likes? Whiskey is a pretty broad category. Scotch (highland, speyside, islay, blends, etc), Rye, Bourbon, Irish, Canadian, blends.... There's a lot of variation in the different types, and someone who is a fan of one may detest another. I'm a bit of an anomaly in that I like all of them. Most whiskey drinkers are not that way though. Many have one preferred type and don't care for the others very much. For instance, bourbon drinkers are not typically fond of islay scotches. I'm the exception to the rule, and I'm not alone, but it would help if you had an idea of what they like.

Oh, and cs09 that's a really nice haul!

I'm getting the idea, that since I have no idea what whiskey they like (or if they even do) I should skip the whiskey idea. OK, I need another gift idea for an acquaintance. They're a friend but only as a result of business, so we don't talk so much personal stuff.

Speaking of C&J, has everyone been ordering direct from CJ now that Bodileys, Pediwear, PLal etc are now basically kaput? Any other sources?

Holy ****!!! I don't even want to ask how much the Brora and Port Ellens set you back. Severe jealousy - enjoy!!!

Macallan 18 is the standard "gift" whisky IMO. A good dram, great brand recognition, more expensive than most people would buy on their own, no flavors too extreme, etc. Personally there are many others I would prefer at that price range but that's the standard gift whisky. No one would be unhappy receiving that.

Well either that or one of cs09's Port Ellens (which probably cost as much as C&J handgrades).
