Thanks Paul, so if I'm getting this right it's actually 57% in old money. Or have I got the wrong end again. Still suprisingly smooth though!
Proof in this sense means to test as in the proof of the pudding is in the eating. The expression 'the exception proves the rule' sometimes confuses in that it sounds contradictory until you use the 'tests the theory' explanation. We still use 'prove' in that sense in the expression 'proving ground'.
Don't blame me, I just quote from Bill Bryson's book 'Mother Tongue'. You should know by now that my occasional forays into spirits involve Irish whiskey which makes me mellow. When I get abusive it's because of too much lager or bitter.Rob, you been drinking the 100 proof? Or are you just proving it?
I prefer Bushmills or even more so Black Bush to my native Scottish whisky, I especially can't stand the over peated ones like Talisker.
Much prefer gin however, yet to find one I can't drink [emoji23]
