Cat & Dog food - better nutrition than many people in the world enjoy - which is gear grinding in a "far too big" sort of way.

It does sound like a bad career choice though.

Bad? Even if it's lip smackingly good?

one of the Safeway pet food buyers would taste the dog food at the start of the meeting, then finish the tin while the sales presentation went on.

Ardbeg Whisky

Aroma

A burst of intense smoky fruit escapes into the atmosphere – peat infused with zesty lemon and lime, wrapped in waxy dark chocolate. Bold menthol and black pepper slice through the sweet smoke followed by tarry ropes and graphite. Savour the aroma of smoked fish and crispy bacon alongside green bell peppers, baked pineapple and pear juice.

Add water and an oceanic minerality brings a breath of cool, briny seaspray. Waxed lemon and lime follows with coal tar soap, beeswax and herby pine woodlands. Toasted vanilla and sizzling cinnamon simmer with warm hazelnut and almond toffee.

Taste

An explosion of crackling peat sets off millions of flavour explosions: peat effervesces with tangy lemon and lime juice, black pepper pops with sizzling cinnamon-spiced toffee. Then comes a wave of brine infused with smooth buttermilk, ripe bananas and currants. Smoke gradually wells up on the palate bringing a mouthful of warm creamy cappuccino and toasted marshmallows. As the taste lengthens and deepens, dry espresso, liquorice root and tarry smoke develop coating the palate with chewy peat oils.

The base flavour of whisky is mildewed kilt. They have to make it taste of something else.

And I agree, it's a cracking whisky, I've just finished a bottle.

(No, not for lunch).

Your breakfast took until 3:56 PM. Have you considered orange juice instead?

Fragile Do Not Bend
Doesn't quite match the thread title but I thought worth sharing.

Just seen some signs advertising that a local restaurant is open from 12am (sic) until late.
