Katy and I went shopping at Waitrose on monday night and I came across this:
I just had to get it (but it was only 99p so that's ok). It's Glenlivet bottled water.
From the website: Welcome to Speyside Glenlivet, where we are pleased to share with you some of the fascinating history, background and detail of this very special Scottish Natural Mineral Water. Its unique and natural blend of minerals provides the essence of Speyside Glenlivet's special appeal. Even the most delicate flavours of what you eat and drink are enhanced when they are accompanied by its cool, clean and pure taste. The outstanding quality of this water was the reason why the first whisky distilleries were founded nearby over 200 years ago.
I worked at Tugnet Ice House at the mouth of the Spey. The rivver was cool on my toes, and the ospreys loved looking for fich in it, but I never tried drinking it…
is it any good?

it's water. I have to say that my palate is not sophisticated enough to distinguish the nuances of water…

I dunno, frankly the spey looked very reddish brown to me. not much like what's in that bottle! Still, I think it's quite cool, I will look out for it for the novelty value as well.
I think you and Katy should get yerselves up to Scotland this summer, no excuses!
