I've said it before, but I'll say it again, the best whiskey I have ever tasted.

Love the enthusiasm Joe! Do you have a preference on any releases of the 2012? I have the 133.2 and am obviously quite pleased

My gaga-ness has only been on the 1st release, the 131.6, as it's the only one I've had. Really glad to hear that you're enjoying the 2nd. Others seem to have, also. When I see it, I'll be picking it up.

I had some EC12 tonight and it wasnt working for me. Switced to Four Roses which is hitting the spot.

I also had some EC12.

After having BTAC WLW and Weller 12 each the previous 2 nights I went with Larceny last night while playing in my weekly poker game. should hjave known better, I got robbed twice while playing!

Russell's Reserve Single Barrel, neat.
OK, I have had this bottle open since Saturday and I like it less and less.

On my last trip to TPS, I picked up my first Beam product, a TPS KCSB for $35. Can't put my finger on it, but I just don't dig it. I won't be buying any more.

That's a shame Oscar. I am really looking forward to this one...less and less.

Some GTS2012 for me to start the night off. Thinking about heading to my favorite local Mexican restaurant that just reopened at a new location.

Wandered in to Mac McGee's for dinner with a couple of friends. Along with the Shepherd's Pie we all tried the whiskley flight that evening which consisted of Michael Collins 10yo, Ben Riach 12 and Larceny.

For me the Michael Collins was the winner with Larceny a close second. Just wasn't feeling the scotch. Despite that not sure I would add the Michael Collins to my bar. With a touch of smoke it was more scotchy than the scotch (which was a light Speyside malt that was supposed to have a touch of smoke but was mostly honey) even though I know that not all scotch has to be peaty. This one was just a little too plain vanilla.

Cold front moving in so I'm fortifying myself with some OGD BIB.
