Willett 21 year old single barrel (barrel 3708 at 102 proof) from my parents. I don't know that it's at barrel strength at that low of proof, but it appears not to have been filtered in any way (there's some small barrel char pieces on the bottom at the bottle).

That bottle must have cost a fortune! Singapore liquor prices are criminal by American standards.

Yes, he would have paid a pretty penny for that. But he's over there making a bunch of money and paying almost no tax, so he'll live. Plus, he knows I'll share it with him once I open it.

Eggcellent gift. Enjoy!

No bourbon, but my wedding / Christmas present from my parents was a big green egg. I'm sure it will only enhance my bourbon drinking.

That is a great gift. My brother has The Green Egg and my My father has a Primo (Similar, just different shape). They are wonderful and will encourage the drinking of bourbon for sure. They make the best smoked/bbq meats. They are also awesome for pizza and bread.

Got a Baker's miniature from my wife. 31st straight year she's dropped a whiskey mini in my stocking.

Also, received a bottle of the Woodford Four Wood, which I am finding to be a very nice pour. It seems with each passing year, the cantaloupe rind taste of the Woodford pot still is reduced in the Master's Collection bottlings. Reduced, or covered up. Not sure which. I don't mind it, but I think it's reduction makes this whiskey more approachable to those who dislike it.

Related gifts were the Cecil Bourbon book, and a sampler box of the Blanton's Cigars. One more Christmas event to go to this weekend at my brothers. Hopefully, some goodies from them, as well!

Not for Christmas, but I got a bottle of PVW20 for my anniversary which was on the 12th.

Got a Baker's miniature from my wife. 31st straight year she's dropped a whiskey mini in my stocking.

That's a great tradition!

My GF made out like bandit! I had been buying Christmas gifts for the last few months though. Cant wait for her to open these.
