@ik9000 I cheated, I didn't know it until I spotted it on a whisky site.

On the subject of Australian whisky, might try a bottle from Starward at some point.

I wasn't being obtuse. I acutally had to do a bit of wikipedia checking to make sure re 13. The only one you wasted was no10 which was not part of Lupis' definition (as Wikipedia definition 2), although presumably you interpreted it as definition 1 which includes Melanesia.

 

[Roadrunner_668]

ha ha um... I think we need a clue

 

[ik9000]

from 14 I don't think you do

 

[Roadrunner_668]

Is it more than 44% ABV ?
Is it more than £75 before post and stuff ?

[Roadrunner_668]
