Determined to discover a whisky I enjoyed, my challenge to the bar staff of the SCOTCH Whisky Bar at the Balmoral Hotal was to find one I liked on a budget of £20. This was a tall order as I definitely wasn't a fan of whisky before, but the delightful staff rose to the challenge with patience: asked me a few questions, listened to my thoughts and brought out two options for me to choose from out of the impressive selection on display. Ladies and gentlemen, they well-and-truly delivered and I sat merrily in the chic but cosy bar with my wee dram and polished off the lot. What is more: it got better with every drop! The pepper crisps and dark chocolate buttons were a great addition and brought out different 'notes' in the whisky which was fascinating to experience. This is a great spot for a fabulously authentic evening in the heart of Scotland. Even if you think you don't like whisky, give it a go and I'm sure you won't be disappointed. At the very least, you'll get a bowl of chocolate buttons. I 100 % recommend!
