Whisky appreciation

[Saul]

I used to drink a fair bit of that. But the price has gone up about 50% in the last few years and although it’s a nice dram I think it’s now overpriced for what it is (at least where I live).

Tonight I’ll be drinking Port Charlotte 10 yr. I've also become a fan of Arran and more recently Raasay. Very different tastes but all good quality honest whiskies, non chill filtered, no added colourants, bottled at a fairly high proof, and still priced reasonably.

I also try to support local businesses and fortunately the “Can’t Call it Bourbon” from Raging Crow Distillery makes a nice old fashioned.

Port Charlotte is amazing! Excellent choice!

What do you think of the Blackened? That is the Metallica whiskey, right?

 

[Brent in Az]

That bottle of Blackened Whiskey is $50 a bottle. It's got a spicy bit of a kick to it.
Blended by master distiller, Rob Dietrich, in partnership with Metallica.
James Hetfield has also introduced his own line of Blackened cigars with Drew Estate.

It’s very smooth. I definitely recommend giving it a try. Michter’s small batch bourbon is my go to. A little sharper, but great flavor and lots of body.

I really like Michter’s Rye, more than their bourbon.

That’s a great sipper and isn’t terribly hard to find either

Finally grabbed a bottle of the Elijah Craig Toasted Barrel tonight. It’s delightful

A nice evening on Saint George Island.

Reading Bernard Cornwell and sipping Traveller, life is good!

Tried Frey Ranch farm strength on a friends recommendation. So good I went back the next day and bought the remaining three bottles.

Pappy Van Winkle is in my opinion the smoothest Bourbon.

Just saw this thread and my mouth is watering @ 8:30 in the morning. I will have to keep tabs on this one but for now here are some unique ones

Not a whiskey but damn I love this rum I am sipping at the moment. Not for the faint of heart but flavourful.

Smith & Cross traditional Jamaica rum.

 

[Neophyte]

Lagavulin and Jameson’s.
Those are my two favorites.

I’m a big fan of Garrison Brothers out of Hye, Texas. I’ve helped bottle some of their stuff. When we were in Lephalale last month, I picked up some of the Three Ships bourbon cask finish whiskey and it it was fantastic. I couldn’t find it at duty free at the airport, so I grabbed two bottles of Bain’s whiskey. Pretty good stuff imho.

They need to do one of these for bourbon.

Just remember that MacAllan will not be worth what they charge for another 15 years.
