Searching For Whisky

The friends are searching for 2 specific ceramic bottle series of Bowmore- the print of sea dragon and sea gulls. We're curious about it too.

The friends could easily source for it through the whisky network and bring them in. But since we're in London, we might as well have a look at the shops. These 2 series are out of production. So I guess they're quite rare on the retail scene, so all the whisky shops don't stock them at all. Available bottles would be squirreled away by the collectors already.

So nope, our search remains unsuccessful. But we have had a grand time looking through the shops on every other street in town.

The whisky shops are beautiful! Old and full of mystery. There is dust on the bottles even. Besides stocking up on the popular distilleries, they also sell bottles by independent bottlers. We like browsing through to acquaint ourselves with the range available.

Blended, grain, vatted, malts, the whisky bars in London are beautiful. I don't like the dives and the pubs. The noise just kills me. I prefer the opulent and stately bars that offer great service and encourage quiet conversation. No.5 Cavendish Square and the Grand Whisky Bar at St Pancras remain our favorite haunts for an evening drink.
