Diplomatico Sir? We'll enjoy it with a few nice Cuban cigars.

Definitely this. Completely slipped my mind. I was talking to someone at SIA's Products and Services about this and he said he had no idea how they got an affordable rate on Paradis.

BA F had some good liquors. I stuck to Glenlivet 18 but they had JW Blue as well:

Thai F had JWB as well...

Maybe my palate is unsophisticated (ok, it is) but I didn't care for too much when I had it. But I think that is more of a me thing?

Don't worry - anyone with a sophisticated palate would say the same.

There is someone in the TR forum who claims not to care much for whisky in its neat form, but always drinks JW Blue with diet Coke.

There were 2 bottles of whisky on sale at SIN back in January for SIN$220,000 (£105,000) so bringing them on board to drink would be quite expensive.
