For those who live in Melbourne or visiting and you have the need/urge for some high quality whisky......
then head to a bar in Collingwood called Bad Frankie. The main guy the Seb, only stocks boutique Aussie distillers for whisky, gin and other spirits. He knows everything there is to know and won't mind a chat either. Have the tasting plate and you will walk away with knowledge and even more appreciation for Aussie spirits.
Google Bad Frankie, the bar is all Aussie and very welcoming. Thats my level of whisky love.....gin on the other hand!!!!

Let me know if you go or have been....cheers.

This is a great drop. Aultmore 12yo, from what I understand they only do a release every few years.
If you can find a bottle grab one, its a great drop.

Cheers Glen

Got these for Xmas.



The Writers Tears is a very nice drop full of flavour.  The Lagavulin is VERY peaty and smokey and the one I probably prefer where as my wife prefers the other.

For a quiet scotch at the end of a hard day we have been drinking JW red for quite a while now and enjoying it.  Bought this duty free on a recent trip and it's very nice. 



Will become our quiet scotch at the end of a hard day I think !

Im not really a rum drinker, but this stuff is stunning. Diplomatico Reserva Exclusiva. Its not whiskey I know, but it's a fantastic drop that any whiskey drinker should really enjoy. My youngest fella schooled me on it last week, so, I bought myself a bottle today....

Cheers Glen

Opened this bottle last night........and found it to be quite addictive



The tasting note suggest butterscotch and vanilla, but I thought it had a real nice smokey afterglow

Little sister was wasting time in the duty free on her way home and decided to buy me a present because I am such a good brother. So pleased, she chose very well.

It's a nice drop that one. My father sent me one for my birthday. Sadly already emptied .

Be a bugger waking up after a big party to find that one lying empty on the floor!

Sounds yummy.........but works out at $10 per shot (25ml), or the equivalent of $280 for a 700ml bottle

Might have to check out the duty free when I fly back from NZ to Aus on Friday.  Not a huge whiskey drinker, but hey I can learn.

I dont think Duty free is really worth the effort anymore is it?

I think there is still a bit to be saved on spirits as they have a high duty rate - guess I'll find out Friday.

But a lot of stuff is crazily expensive - things like M&Ms are probably twice what it costs at coles.

I can't match what they say he bought to how much they say he spent, but he obviously knows what he wants!

& before you ask, no, it wasn't me!
