So nice we had to have it twice! Our friends at Old Line Spirits sent us their Single Malt Whiskey for us to try, and even though we fluffed with it a few weeks back, we enjoyed it so much we had to record a bonus about it. It's also JP's first time tasting it, so will it join the list of single malts he hates, or break through to be a buy?
