Zoraptor Posted October 27, 2020 Posted October 27, 2020 I thought carving pumpkins were rubbish to eat anyway? We don't get red pumpkin for sale here, it's all Crowns/ Butternut/ Buttercup which aren't the right shape for carving anyway. I thought for a moment I actually had that Scotch on the shelf but it's Aberlour, not Aberfeldy. Same bottle style though.

Zoraptor Posted October 27, 2020 Posted October 27, 2020 Similar to the Aberfeldy I'd say. It's really smooth, almost no peat or smoke, not very strong on the palate but with a very nice finish. It's the sort of scotch I could very easily imagine being turned into Drambuie. 1

Don't know how they compare to any others but plenty of mom's I knew growing up would use the common US ones for stuff. Pies mostly, soup sometimes. My mother liked to dry out the seeds in the oven for eating. 2 “Things are as they are.

Zoraptor Posted October 29, 2020 Posted October 29, 2020 For years the only non miniature red pumpkins available here that were (occasionally) sold came with the disclaimer that you should feed them to livestock when finished with them, which was not encouraging. I kind of presumed things were different in the US since everywhere seemed to have pumpkin pie for sale as a dessert when I was last there- I'm not sure I've ever seen it offered here. Since I've been prompted I checked my seed catalogues and we do now have a good tasting carving pumpkin available (variety name "Jack o' Lantern", appropriately enough; though the seed supplier is pretty niche and it isn't available retail) but it's a bit late to try planting any now plus I don't have the space. Something to try for next year though.
