Clavius Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 I just finished off a bottle of Glenmorangie 10 that I've had around for quite some time. It's still a mighty fine dram at an excellent price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pfiest Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Ever had the Nectar D'Or? Pretty good, IMHO. And I'm not even a fan of the Highland single malts.Yes, I actually enjoy most of the Glenmorangie line, but for the value (at least in OH), it's tough to beat the 10.

JamesW Posted February 18, 2012 Author Share Posted February 18, 2012 Over the past few weeks I've killed a Laphroaig QC, Aberlour 10, Jameson 12, & Amrut Fusion. All will be replaced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clavius Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 Tonight I say goodbye to my bottle of Ardbeg Uigeadail. It was a tasty yet expensive bottle that lasted a few good weeks. Ardbeg is quickly becoming my favorite scotch AFTER Laphroaig. Laphroaig holds a special place in my heart. Kind of like that first love. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unclebunk Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 Auchentoshan 16 bit the dust last night. Looks like the bottle of Sheep Dip will be extinct tomorrow morning, as I continue to knock off odds and ends of near-empty bottles to make room for new ones.

emil Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 Just finished off bottles of Highland Park 12 and Talisker 10. Both were excellent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFerguson Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 Forty Creek Double Barrel Reserve. Quite a interesting bottle. It's certainly not like most of its canadian brethren, nor like most bourbons either. Easy to drink, and quite tasty, and very corn forward to me. A recommended buy if you are looking for something different from north of the border. B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't sell the double barrel reserve in Michigan.Sent from my PG86100 using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been tempted to get the standard, but just haven't pulled the trigger yet. The Double is certainly something that I haven't seen in many places, I think i have spied it in only like 4 stores, and that was spread over three states.

compliance Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Took the last bit of my Ardbeg Uigeadail, what a great pour. Following it up with some JW Gold I got as a gift over a year ago. Last quarter of the bottle so I'm going to work on kicking this one in the next couple days. It's very drinkable, almost to a fault. Super smooth and oily, raisins on the nose but the taste is a bit fresher, like pear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AaronWF Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 I killed an Octomore Orpheus last weekend. It had been open in my cabinet for well over a year and I had grown anxious to finally finish it. It's discombobulating to have a bottle where you can't see the fill line...Anyway, now that it's gone, I miss it. Heavy, fresh peat (seriously kind of reminds me of wet-hopped IPA) finished in wine casks that brought out honey-pineapple gummies. Quite distinct, and a very different quality of peat than what you get in Ardbeg or Laphroaig. Holds its proof of 122 very well, though don't skip the drop or two of water, as it quite enhances it.

Clavius Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Saying goodbye to another bottle of Laphroaig 10yr, my most favorite scotch whisky. Time to pony up the cash and get another bottle! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BFerguson Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 Wisers Legacy ran dry last night. Fortunately, another was obtained just the day before in anticipation of said event. A great Canadian product for sure.B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duninsane Thane Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Of all those in the "Great Whisky Graveyard in the Skye (and Islay)", I'd have to say I rue the demise of the 38 yr-old Talisker and the 30 yr-old Black Bowmore the most. :drinking: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clavius Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 About to say goodbye to a bottle of Glenlivet Nadurra 1991 "Triumph". Tasty stuff but, ultimately, not worth the nearly $90 I paid for it. The 16-year Nadurra is better and cheaper, in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yeti Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 I floated empty bottles of Macallan 12 Year and Lagavulin 16 Year last evening. Both have been expectedly wonderful, but at least they're not rare single cask bottles, and easily replaceable when the mood strikes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebo Posted November 17, 2012 Share Posted November 17, 2012 Just killed the last of a bottle of Talisker 10. I don't think the few pours left in the bottle of Caol Ila 12 will make it past the evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wall Eye Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 The last 2 down have been JWB and Ardmore Traditional Cask. Both are on my "economical favorites" list and have already been replaced. Now my job (tough work) is to thin the herd of a few that are fine whiskys, but will not be replaced - or replaced by others that I like more.
