What are you drinking tonight?

If you get the chance...it is one truly tasty Scotch...

That’s my favorite of their core line too

Sheridan is all done. Was hoping to finish it yesterday evening, but was wary of falling asleep before midnight.

I tried the 12 awhile back and really didn’t think it would be improved when they moved it to 14. Yes it has been improved. This is fantastic.

After having another plateful of my wife's wonderful Caribbean fried chicken, fried rice, and veggie chow mein, I think I'll settle in with some Monkey Shoulder and do some reading.

Never mind Pappy you can buy a case of Weller Antique 107 for less coin and you won’t be disappointed.

Was gifted a bottle of Basil Haydens’s for Christmas. I forgot how much I enjoyed this whiskey.

Glen Scotia Victoriana. First taste of this. I had added it to my list after watching a review, but didn’t remember what to expect. The nose was mostly red fruits so the power of the taste got my surprise. Strong and hot with sherry and pepper on it. Finish of chocolate. I needed to add some water to it and it was still hot. I think it brought the pepper more forward and buried the fruit and chocolate. Always happy to try new stuff, but unless this makes a big change being opened up it won’t be a rebuy.

Sounds like water and time might be your only friend on this one...

 

[NurseDave]

Yep, I'll pour one more dram and then stick it in the back of the cabinet.

Little Book Chapter 4 - The nose of this is a-mazing. Super interesting with grain, mint, spices. I love the layers. The taste is a sweet rye with brown sugar and baking spices but it is HOT. Might need to try it with water.

Just looked, it’s 61.4% so the heat makes sense.
