Trey Manthey Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 I put a bottle of Caol Ila 12 out of its misery. I never really connected with this dram neat, so it live out most of it's life in cocktails that call for a peated whiskey. I have to say that it makes this Black Diamond Flip quite tasty.

AaronWF Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 After a good 15 months, Redbreast 15 gave out its last last night. When I first opened it, I was disappointed - there just didn't seem to be much to it. So, it stayed in the shadows of my cabinets, coming out every now and then when I was bored with the usuals. Then one day, it hit me really well. Really, really well. For whatever reason, the clean, supple malt and rosy sherry notes came into focus for me in the best way, and I started loving on it. I am now a big fan and I think I prefer it to the PJL. I need to dig out a RB12 CS from the first release, because that one remains my favorite Irish, even though I grew to love the PJL I drank through more recently. I'm going to have to look to replace the 15, though, before prices are pushed further upwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garbanzobean Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Ardbeg Uigeadail. It wasn't bad, but the bottle I have (from 2013), tasted heavily of overly young spirit. I can see how this would be amazing if it were older, but this just wasn't. Probably would not buy again. I wouldn't recommend it unless you can find a dusty that has a much higher quantity of older spirit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wall Eye Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Killed a bottle of Benromach 10 this week. This was my second bottle - and I will be replacing it eventually because overall I enjoy it. It seems to have a unique smokiness without peat that I really like.But this one gets my award for being the most "all over the road" with me. One week I love it, and the next week I wonder what I was thinking.... and then back to love. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AaronWF Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 First and last bottle of Lag 16. Finally killed it. Not my thing. Mild in every way, except in how much it would cost to replace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

risenc Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 Last night I killed off a bottle of Glendronach 18 and -- and! -- a bottle of Nikka Coffey Grain. A bittersweet evening, to be sure. And I'm about a glass and a half shy from the end of a bottle of GTS 2012. Sniffle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
