Friday

Whisky Truffles, very seasonal. As Fridays go this is a pretty good one for me, I've got most of the day booked out for Connosr work, currently putting together the design for our newsletter.

I am bringing this up because it is (aside from a Jura advertising post) the thread that has remained inactive the longest. No longer.

A bit of Connosr history.

My Friday evening looks something like this...

Looks like a good time!

'Dry January' just left the building...

Heck of a good combo there @jeanluc I love that BrewDog IPA, sadly its not always available around here!

Good time Friday!

Anything nice lined up for the weekend folks?

I'll be sharing a dram with my uncle tonight... front runners include A'Bunadh 47. Over the weekend I hope to have time to get to a review or 2.

Kids in bed and the good lady wife is out. Only one thing for it....

Nice choice @markwd64 Hibiki 17 is a great whisky

It's raining buckets over here, a night to settle in and nurse a few whiskys.

@GoodVintage On call last night, on call tomorrow. It's not raining, but I think a dram is in order.

I skipped last Friday while taking a 10 day hiatus. Tonight, having a sip of Masterson's 10 YO Rye American Oak hand picked in Calgary by Connosr's very own @Nozinan... a big thank you!!

@paddockjudge You're welcome - I enjoy North American whiskies more because of you.

For me...my uncle and I are enjoying Bladnoch 10 YO 55% sherry cask matured. Thank you Raymond Armstrong for creating this. It is fabulous! Even better than when we opened it in December.

Sipping Yellow Spot and pairing it with a quirky Welsh Red Ale called Cwtch.

Friday night in Boston at a function for a family friend. There were 3 scotches, JW Black, HP 12, and this one, which I believe I had never tried before. I have tried it now and am very happy to have done so.

@Nozinan, Haven't seen this one in BC for years, but I got one in Oregon last year and it is still a very good dram and at 43%. Paid about $60 for it. Got back from Mexicoa about a week and a half ago and I'm still trying to adjust to being cold and/or wet. I did discover that good Scotch down there is around two thirds the price in BC and standard OBs like Glenmo 10 and Balvenie DW are at 43% not 40 like here. Three bottles came home in our checked luggage.

FRYEday came early. Enjoying Single Barrel Rye, Jack Daniel's. This one gets the

@paddockjudge Is there a :jealous: emoji?

Making a dent in this Noah's Mill, I love this whiskey

Looking for some seldom opened bottles in my cabinet I came across Ardmore TC on one of the shelves. It's 2/3 full. In the "spirit" of exploring more lower ABV drams to see how my palate has developed, I poured a dram of this 46% offering.

I went for an old friend, Redbreast 12. I had forgotten how easy it is to drink. In the Irish style it is as always the best poor for your money.
