I will probably post up a few reviews I did the week before I got the flu (but the special releases are still on deck.)

Have you had an opportunity to try the special releases, yet? John,

How goes the flu?

Have you had an opportunity to try the special releases, yet?

Speaking of Tamaflu, I can't get any. All the drugs stores here are sold out. I can't fill my prescription, which sucks! That means more whisky, I guess. And maybe a hot toddy, as suggested by Joe.

I would not mind buying one of these flu kit :-) The Mannochmore seems very tempting. The Port Ellen was excellent. Enjoy and let us know what you think.

I know a lot of people who have the flu right now. Have you tried a hot toddy to get you through? Try varying amounts of honey and lemon in different whiskies. Might make for a good blog post once you're all better. John, I do hope you feel better soon. I know a lot of people who have the flu right now.

I'd give up three for that one. Shake the flu quickly! But is one of the eight the Port Ellen that I’ve read is already sold out? I’d give up three for that one.

I hate to point it out, but I think you got short-changed. It appears they sent you 8 bottles, but there were 11 new releases. First off, feel better.
