So, what are you drinking now?

I'm enjoying a George T Stagg and my wife is having an Old Potrero...earlier we opened an Ancnoc 12 and followed it with a Springbank Claret Wood.

@BlueNote I like the way you think!

I passed a pasture on the way home where the ranch hands were burning leaves and ditches. I couldn't stay away from the Laphroaig 10 after that.

Enjoying good ole Glenmorangie 10 while watching some college hoops. Good times.

Glenlivet Nadurra...Gotta add a lil'H2O to tame this beast; opens up nicely!

Having a little tasting tonight. I'm starting off with Alberta Premium Dark Horse, then onto Isle of Arran Sherry Single Cask, and then finishing up with a blend I put together from some of my single malts as an experiment.

Enjoying a Crown Royal Maple Finished, wow now I want breakfast. :)

@PMessinger Quick question Is it as any better than the standard Crown Royal? Or a better question: Would you recommend this?

The last of my Snow Phoenix. :(

Just got done with my first Scotch Malt Whisky Society Tasting and made some new whisky friends! Even better I won some free whisky bottles due to whisky knowledge and being a loud American, much to the amusement of the aussies. And I may be able to get more whisky samples from the Society! SO MANY BEAUTIFUL WHISKIES!! Reviews to follow!

Enjoying Highland Park 12 and watching college football.

@teebone673 Sounds like an idea but I've got a newly acquired Glenlivet 12 375ml half bottle just covering a little basics tonight.

@GotOak91 Nothing wrong with that, my friend. Enjoy!

Enjoying a post dinner Dalmore 12 yr after being a week open it is becoming very yummy. I'm eyeing up the last drops of my Talisker 10 too. The homemade brownies taste great too.

@GotOak91 Yes I recomend this as to weather this is better than the standard CR, its different than the standard but better is up to the drinker. I hate to be vague on this point it is just my not wanting to steer someone wrong. But I say try it see how you like it. Thanks for your question. :)

Scapa 16. First time I've had a dram since our Orkney Vertical (HP 12, HP 15, Scapa 16, HP 18, HP 21) on November 2. Amazed at the complexity, although perhaps it should have been bottled at 43%, as it feels very delicate and somewhat fragile at 40%.

SMWS 129.1, A Smoky, Peachy, Yoghurt of Loveliness. 1st-fill bourbon, 60.2%, 5yo. My second favorite Kilchoman of the 12 I've had (only the cask strength, pre-release version of Machir Bay was better). This one is ever so lightly flavored, wonderfully smoky, old leather sofas. Nice oily texture. Big smoke in the end.

@two-bit-cowboy - thanks for posting your comments on this one. I just received my bottle over the weekend and haven't opened it yet. I love Kilchoman, but was a little concerned with some of the comments in the tasting notes. In the end, I decided it was a Kilchoman and it was from SMWS, so i figured it was a pretty safe bet. Glad to hear that your like it. Thanks again!

Tonight, I'm having a dram of SMWS 127.13 (Bruichladdich Port Charlotte 8 year old) - "Garry the tank commander". Sweet, then salty, then smoke... Lots of smoke.

@bwmccoy Hope it helped. Eager to read your thoughts.

What a name on that 127.13! I got quite a fair amount of the 127.12, Shockingly Comfortable, at a whisky dinner at the Alta Club in Salt Lake City in February. I didn't record notes, but it scored high on my scale.

Just opened my first bottle of Laphroaig Triple Wood. Hoping for goodness...

A Thanksgiving Eve of blends and vatt -- er, blended malts, just to be festive. Spice Tree, JW Green and Blue, and Black Bull 30. A good night.

Starting Thanksgiving celebration early with a little Talisker 10. Happy Thanksgiving to all!!

A custom blend of Old Forester Signature (1/8) and Wild Turkey 81 (7/8), which results in a very mellow 41.7% ABV bourbon.

Had a little anCnoc Peter Arkle limited edition (first) while mixing the cornbread for tomorrow's stuffing. A 'morangie 18 while the 'bread baked. 'laddie Octomore 04.2 Comus now. Can it get any better?

Happy Thanksgiving, Americans.

Blind Talisker tasting tonight: Talisker 10 YO Talisker 57N Talisker Distillers Edition Talisker 18 YO

Picked them all out correctly, even without having had the 18 before (and the others only once). Not bad whisky either! Cheers all!

@Wodha Family in town for the Holiday weekend so I opened/drinking JW Green Label. Don't want any hands on my PC7. LOL. :)

@YakLord the Scapa 16 is a very nice/mellow single malt; perfect for a warm summer evening...Too bad it's so pricey.

It's 30deg. here in Brisbane, Aust., so Whisky is out of the question (good Malt Whisky, anyway!). So have opted for a very lovely U.S. Beer from Rochester, NY. Dundee India Pale Ale 6.3% alc./vol. & a mighty fine Beer it is - Big, Old fashioned Hopsy flavor and so smooth. The aroma is reminiscent of how Beer smelt more than 50yrs. ago when I first tasted the devine beverage. Water, Malted Barley, Yeast, Hops + Skill.

Bravo!

Cheers!

Started out the Christmas dinner season last night with a couple of very special guests, I introduced them to the wonderful world of whisky, they are both Wine aficionados. I started the Misses out with a dram of Aberlour a'bunadh batch 30 with water she enjoyed it very much(said it made the tip of her tongue dance).

I then opened my bottle of Ardbeg Corryvreckan and passed it around for everyone to have a smell at first. Wow this is one of a few bottles I really enjoyed freshly opened, simply amazing. I laughed a bit when the misses said that this one made the back of her tongue dance, the mister had a sniff and a smiled while his eyes rolled back. Afterwards she said she never realized how similar wine was to whisky.

I must place my order for another bottle of Ardbeg Corryvreckan to have in reserve.

@Wodha I'm drinking the last of my PC7 which I was able to keep for myself by bait & switching non-scotch drinking family with JW Green, who says blends don't have their place. LOL. :)
