      Inspired by the beetroot question: Who has tried durian, and what are your thoughts on it?

      Known to some as the king of fruits and to others as something incredibly smelly.

      I've become a big durian fan, but try not to eat too much of it during the season here, since it is calorie dense and very "heaty" if you follow traditional Chinese medicine.

      I’m an Irish man who lived in Scotland for a long time and developed a penchant for good Scottish whisky.

      I’ve since moved back to Ireland and am on a quest to find good Irish whiskey.

      I’ve been looking for double distilled, single pot (or single malt) and have found a couple of nice ones, though this is somewhat counter to the Irish market which favours triple distilled and has (imo) a narrower taste profile, especially when compared to scotch.

      Currently drinking: Shortcross rye and barley

      Its really pleasant and quite different to the traditional Jameson/bush. There’s a bit of depth to it, some spice from the rye and a lovely classic malty finish.

      Any other whisky enjoyers out there ?
