I should add...it's(Alligator) $90 good. Not $500 e-bay good. IMO

Had some Laphroaig 10 earlier at a bar, which is nice because the LCBO doesn't even carry it. Nice, a bit less intense than Quarter Cask, from what I recall.
Right now, it is Kittling Ridge time. First had some Forty Creek Confederation Oak Reserve. Amazing stuff, every bit as rich and complex as a single malt Scotch, but with a completely different flavour. One of my new favourite whiskies.
Now I'm onto its much cheaper sibling, Canada Gold. More of a typical Canadian blend, but with the sherry notes and earthy flavour familiar from Barrel Select. Would make a nice alternative to Canadian Club.
Laphroaig Quarter Cask, neat.
God gave me wisdom but the Devil gave me style

Glenmorangie Original. This is the first scotch that I actually enjoy!

Cragganmore 12, followed by Talisker 10.
I had some quarter cask today as well Oscar. We also tasted the new Cairdeas bottling, a 30 year Cairdeas bottling, and the standard 10 . All quite nice and enjoyable. Nice to note that the cask is a quarter size of a sherry butt, not quarter to bourbon.![]()
A couple of drams today. Douglas Laing Benriach 18 yo and a Springbank 10
Reaching for some Ardmore Traditional Cask. I've always enjoyed it and lately I find myself choosing this one more often than not.
Whisk(e)y - a bargain at any price !!!
