According to taste-tests it's pretty good - but whisky fans will do well to get their hands on a bottle of the special offer stuff that goes on sale at Aldi today.
The bargain supermarket will stock only 3,000 bottles of the 40-year-old so-called 'Glenbridge' Scottish whisky that is being sold at a whopping £250 discount across its 450 stores.
The whisky, made in a Scottish distillery in 1971, will be available for £49.99 instead of the supposed usual selling price of £300 from this morning.
But with just six or seven bottles in each store - the cut-price Scotch is expected to sell out fast.
Cheap tipple: Bargain supermarket chain Aldi is planning to sell bottles of the whisky across its 450 UK stores
The low cost chain had said weeks ago that it expected 'queues out of the door'. In reality, early reports today suggested the queues were modest presumably due to the threadbare stocking of the bottles.
In the Wolverhampton store the local newspaper, the Express & Star reported that around 20 shoppers had queued but only six were able to buy a bottle.
Cyril Morgan, a 58-year-old retired financial consultant, was left disappointed. He said: 'I read about this at the weekend and was hoping to add it to my whisky collection.'
Suresh Patel, 54, was successful. He said: 'I’m no connoisseur but for £50 it’s worth a try.'
A spokesman for the supermarket said: 'Whisky of this quality and age would usually sell for around £300 plus.
'Aldi is giving customers the chance to get hold of a very high quality luxury product for a very low price.'
With many 40-year-old whiskys available from upwards of £100, but some costing in the region of £300, doubts have been cast on whether the bottles Aldi is offering are worth the price it says.
He added that he would not be surprised to see the whisky appearing for sale on eBay with customers taking advantage of the discount price of £49.99.
Sells on eBay are not allowed to sell alcohol for 'consumption' but can get around this clause by selling it as a collectable.
The limited edition, Speyside Single Malt Whisky comes from an unnamed Scottish distillery.

Quick question:
FedEx have sent me a letter saying they are holding a bottle of vodka that's been imported from America. They want me to give them a call on Monday.
Does this mean they want to charge me import tax?
Is there any way of getting out of paying it?
How much is the tax?

1. fedex normally charge you afterwards. maybe there's a problem with it being allowed in. can you jus import vod in like that?
2. nope
3. depends on the price whoever sent it you put down. hopefully they lied
Safe for the info. Not sure about the ins and outs of just bringing in drinks- will do some research

not touching vodka aka the devil's piss for a long while.
the mixers got me fucked, i couldn't taste the alcohol cos mandem was mixing my drinks with just KA, lemonade, etc. I drank too much yesterday and vomitted about 8 times, moaning and groaning like im being tortured in hell all night, and all day today my stomach's been absolutely fucked.
back to normal now, but fuck that, taking a break from the devils piss/binge ting.
