Joe, if you can find one, the price should be 70- 90.... I have noticed there is a very large range of pricing for this one...

I apologize if I have made a mistake.... it appears that maybe it is still made. Sorry to feed a frenzy. If anyone has any "good" info on the status of the Uigeadial, please chime in.
Re: What Wee Dram are you enjoying now?
I don't know if this is "good" info or not, but Ugi is still shown as a regular product on the Ardbeg site.......since I went to the trouble to look it up I decided to pour a BIG pour of it tonight.

I'm enjoying a large pour of Auchentoshan Triple Wood.

Bowmore Dusk, the Bordeaux finish gives it a really nice fruit character, very enjoyable whiskey for sure.
Re: What Wee Dram are you enjoying now?
Cracked open a bottle of Macallan Cask Strenghth. This scotch is a deep brown with a noticeable ruby glow. At 58.6 ABV, it has a nice grip on the taste buds. In fact , I thought my buds were going to abandon ship when I first poured the Macallan on top of them. It could just be me, but I would give this pour the mouth grenade label. If you like the regular Macallan 12 yo, you will love this one. It has the same nose and taste with the addition of 21 inch biceps and a grip like a pit bull. The sherry and nutty oak palate is balanced with a sweet malty background.

Opened a bottle of Aberlour 10 last night and enjoyed a few pours with a neighbor on my deck. Great stuff!
Re: What Wee Dram are you enjoying now?
Nothing too exciting or exotic last night, but the standard Glenmorangie 10YO accompanied a late night cigar.

I have about one pour left in my bottle. Been saving it for some unkown reason. I need to get another bottle of this. I like the regular 12 very much... and the 18 even better (can't afford it). The cask strength is wonderfull, IMO.
Re: What Wee Dram are you enjoying now?
Killing off the last of my $22.00 bottle of McClellend's Islay. I probably won't get another. It isn't very good.... even at that price.
