How about a little Monkey Shoulder? Vanilla and oak... so good.

And a bit of trivia, it's 'Whisky' if it comes from a country without an E in the name. It's 'whiskey' from countries with an E, as a general rule.

Picked these up during the week as part of the amazon prime day

£70.97 for 4 bottles / can’t go wrong. Not tried the Sherry cask one yet

diverbennett · 13 May 2022, 04:36 AM

My go to is Japanese.

Current bottle is Nikka single barrel

I'm still trying to find my favorite scotch, but if anyone sees a bottle of Orphan Barrel's Barterhouse, it's fantastic. Well worth a try!

Hey Marc, my buddies and I get first choice of Pappy this fall. When we picked up our barrel, I asked about it and he said we would get first shot at whatever he gets. So, we get four bottles!!! I'm excited.

Enjoy that Chad, interested to hear what you think of modern PVW. What year(s) are you getting?

We won't know until the store owner calls and lets us know what he has. I've recently tried the 10 and 15 year. The 10 was ok, nothing special. The 15 was pretty smooth. I liked it. I'll let you know what we're able to get.

I would give you Hell for bringing a half empty bottle over to share, but we hit the Jack pretty hard before y’all got there so

Oooooh, I finally was able to try some Pappy this week (the 20 year old) and it was amazing.

Oh man I love that Midleton very rare yum
been on a rye kick lately and loving the Angel's Envy

Happy to see some fans of Islay Scotch here!

Big fan of Lagavulin, but Laphroaig is definitely my favorite and go to. The 10 year is a staple at home. Love their cask strength and quarter cask variants, but really really enjoy their 18 and 21 years.

Had a chance to visit the distillery on Islay a while back to visit my 'plot of land,' wade in the marshes, and bottle our own small batch directly from a small cask (got to walk through the facilities on a tour which included shoveling peat into their ovens and finished with a generous tasting session). After stumbling about for a bit, we also trekked over to Lagavulin the same day-- definitely need to make the trip back out there!!

New Buffalo Trace Antique Collection 2017. How does one come to the bottles?

It's very difficult, they are highly allocated and in high demand in the U.S. and European export is very limited. If you have a local retailer you spend a lot of money with, try them. Online retailers in EU like the Masters of Malt occasionally have some BTAC but usually sell out in minutes.

George Burdell · 15 October 2017, 04:22 AM

You should rename it the Whisk(E)y Thread. After all, it might come from the US or Ireland.

Definitely unicorns. Distilled from unobtanium. Low supply, high demand and requires a long expensive relationship with the liquor distributors before you are offered a chance at getting some at retail although they are available on the secondary market for a premium. Sound familiar?

This one has been sleeping for some years... Maybe a good one to bring to a TRF / GTG sometime?

I start each day with coffee and end with brown water.

Thanks! This was a quarantine activity here in the basement to have this done. It extends another 2.5 feet to the left that I cannot get in the picture due to the L shape of the bar and the small size/configuration of the basement.

Sadly I am out of space as the cabinets underneath are all filled. I need to have a couple of events once covid is over to drink this down a bit!

Hibiki 21 has been my go-to special occasion whisky for a while. I just wish I bought a few more bottles before they really skyrocketed in price - they're impossible to find even in Japan these days. I turned up empty handed on my trip there last year.

SearChart · 15 October 2017, 04:42 AM

Lagavulin 8 tonight...
