I can see myself adding both of these to the rotation of whisky's.

I think the Fiddich 15 year is much better than the 12, but all respectable to my fairly new Scotch pallette.

Last night I was enjoying some Laproaig Caideas which is wonderful, Caol Ila Cask Strength another gem and Talisker 57 North which is the best whisk(e)y I've had in a while!

Merry Christmas!!

I'm sipping a little Auchentoshan Three Wood this evening. Almost gone. :( Have to get a new bottle.

Just got home from an evening of church services and then a visit to the grandson to see him discover Santa in the act (excellently portrayed by a fellow SB'er). Only one way to end the evening....a pour of Laphroiag 30 YO.

Just tried this recently. Found it quite nice. The heavy sherry adds much depth to the light malt.

I finished off my old bottle of Macallan Elegancia last night.

After much New Years celebration with friends and family, I ended the evening in a comfortable chair with a ringside seat to view all of the illicit fireworks lighting up the county. I ended the year with a healthy pour of Glenmorangie Quinta Ruban and a wicked chocolate brownie.

Well I ran out of Laphroaig 10yr. Guess I'll have to settle for Ardbeg 10yr until I can find another bottle of the Laphroaig.

After enjoying some bourbon earlier, I decided to pop open a bottle I had from a while ago of Glenlivet 18. I've had the 12 year before, but this stuff is just fantasic.

Had the 2010 Caol Ila Unpeated. At 65% ABV, it's smooooooth. Tastes almost exactly like Springbank 10 100 proof. Oh wait, what, Springbank is $20 cheaper? Well, what about diluting the Caol Ila to the same proof? Oh, fuddle duddles, there goes everything except the vanilla. Mr. Bartender, I'll stick with the Springer!

Relatives, though, if you're reading, an unpeated Caol Ila would make a great birthday gift :)

I started last night with Glenlivet 15 and finished with Springbank 10/100
