Brilliant!
Absolutely true.
Some people like whisky, of course. But some people also like Marmite.
Actually, I'm surprised they haven't tried a Marmite flavoured blend - they've adulterated nearly everything else with it.

I went off whisky about 30 years ago after drinking 2/3rds of a bottle of Tesco Value Whisky. When I woke up next day I thought I must have had a mini-stroke 'cos my face was drooping on one side and found it difficult to walk. It wore off after a day or so but the smell of whisky turns my stomach.

Foxie likes her whisky so she does. There was one bottle she bought whose name is unpronounceable and it smelt like the Pink Healing Ointment we used to slather around our kid's bits when she had nappy rash. We did a tour of the Jameson's distillery in Dublin and as part of the tour of about 20 people we had to sit at tables with half-a-dozen shot glasses each with a thimbleful-worth of different whisky in each one. Foxie identified them all and won the competition.
