Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.


Recommended Posts

Yep. Ardbeg produces really well balanced peaty single malts. Laphroaigh is as good but their Ten year old is just to extreme IMO.

Think I will get the QTR cask today or a Mac lol

It's actually really smooth. Mouse likes it and he, like you, is adverse to anything peaty.

its the worlds peatiest SM.

Like I said I don't mind some peat ie Laphroaigh is okay.

But some are more extreme than others and that Bruichladdich Octomore is one of them.

Have you tried it? It is nowhere near as rough as the Laphroigh 10. Definitely worth trying a nip next time you're up this way.

Nope, never tried it.

But it is labeled the worlds peatiest single malt for a reason.

Happy to taste it..................one day.

Antz, go the Quarter Cask or 25yo in the Laphroigh if you are not into a strong peaty flavour. Or the Lagavulin 16 is a nice blend of sweet with some peatiness.

I happen to enjoy the peatiness of Laphroaigh mate

    • I should video mine, will prob do it tomorrow    Between 1st and 3rd, you could fit another two gears. That is how loose and wobbly it is   horrible:(
    • Throws on the FS5R30A in most Nissans of this era are actually quite short and direct compared to any remotely modern BMW with the S6-53 transmission. Those things have throws a mile long with rubbery vague everything. Synchro issues combined with a short shifter is just going to break everything even faster.
    • Only thing I'd add...is on recommendation from a good diff shop, I've used mineral oil in my diff including the race car for years. The synthetics can be too slippery and glaze the gears
    • 75W90 GL5 is fine. If you aren't sure about the type get one with LSD additive. 
    • Because you're effectively rushing the shift and forcing it to go in - with greater leverage against parts that don't _want_ to go together. Short shift = forcing the gear in harder. Also Redline Heavy Shockproof actively says not to use it in anything with Synchros. Well, it says "not recommended" which is basically as far as anyone will ever say in a product statement to "Do not use" Generally the Redline makes the gearbox feel great... until it fails faster. https://www.redlineoil.com/heavy-shockproof
