A couple of pours of Talisker 10 to finish the bottle and now some Clynelish 14. The contrast is that the Clynelish is tasting very sweet and fruity, almost like apricots. I love it.

HP 18 and my very first taste of Macallan 18. My wife gave me the Mac as a gift from a trip she made. This is GREAT stuff!![]()
Green Spot and Redbreast 12yo, can't beat those PPS whiskeys
After way to much Armagnac, I finished the night with an 18 yr old Craigellachie OB. Nice sherry monster.
Just had a really nice 17yo Glenfiddich bottled by Cadenhead's. A classic single malt.
Starting with Glenmorangie 10 (finishing up a 1L bottle), then moving on to my "summer scotch"-- cask-strength, 14yo Bladnoch. I never get tired of that "Butterscotch meets (faint) Basil" taste-- and I'll probably be drinking it all summer!

Bladnoch is always excellent. There will be a 19yo coming out soon.
I just got back from a very late supper. As I sat down at the bar at a local applebee's, I ordered a Jamisons and asked to see a menu. The waitress informed me they didn't have any Jamisons but they had Bushmill's. What came out of my mouth next was a mistake, I said, "that'll be fine". I should have ordered something else or settled for iced tea. Every time I try Bushmill's white it leaves me sorely disappointed.
Later, while talking to the waitress, when I asked if they were just out of Jamisons or didn't carry it anymore, I was informed they no longer carry it. But the still have Bushmills white. WTF. To me that's a backaswards decision. Can Bushmills white label actually sell more than the standard Jamisons?

Having a great big pour of some Talisker 10 I brought back from Italy. Not as smoky/salty/seaweed-y as the stuff I get here at home, but it's just huuuge. The peppery notes that are often mentioned are in abundance. Powerful good stuff.
Cheers!
