Which Water of Life Did You Purchase Today?

Let me know about the Aberlour 16 as well. http://www.straightbourbon.com/forum...cons/icon7.gif Cheers!

I picked up an Ardbeg 10 and tried it for the 1st time today. It blew me away with it's depth of character. I have a new favorite single malt.

(At least for this week!) :lol:

Damn, they just stopped selling Ardbeg in my area :(

Today I picked up Woodford Reserve ($7.50 off) and Forty Creek Barrel Select. The Barrel Select is really starting to grow in me; until now I had thought of it as overrated...

I bought a Forty Creek a while back that I thought was OK, but it didn't sing for me and I don't anticipate going back for more. But as far as Canadian, I've just stocked up with several bottles of Wiser's Very Old. One of the local grocery stores mistakenly restocked the Wiser's Deluxe with a case of the Very Old, and sold it for $14.50 a bottle. I felt a little bit guilty, but not enough so as to correct them. Seller beware!

:bandit:

(I really don't drink much Canadian anymore, but it will always be fond since Seagram's VO was my gateway drug into whiskey drinking, back in my early 20's.)

Wow, you lucky bugger! Wiser's Very Old is fantastic, and at that price they might as well give it away for free. Screw correcting them! In Canada the price has gone up to $45 a bottle, which is still pretty reasonable for an 18-year-old whisky.

I opened the Aberlour 16 last night. I recently also opened A'bunadh batch #16 last weekend. I prefer the A'bunadth to the Aberlour 16. The 16 has a peppery taste but the A'bunadh has more sherry taste. Other than that the color and taste are very similar.
