Bowmore Enigma 12yr

Caol Ila 12, nice, light in color, but for the same money, I slightly prefer Lagavulin 16.

Glenlivet 18. Last of the bottle...

I'm not a big rum drinker; got burned out on the stuff during a vacation on St. Thomas, VI many years ago.
But would you recommend this as a gift to a friend who still enjoys it?

Ron Millionario - Sistema Solera 15 Reserva Especial

I'm loving the rum!

Just picked a Dry Fly Triticale whiskey. Will crack it next weekend and post notes.

Glenfiddich 15 is nice. I have a gift pack with 12, 15, and 18 in it. I think I'll have to try all of them side-by-side.

Tonight with sushi,

Kuromatsu Hakushika Junmai Daiginjo. Very good.

Johnnie Walker Black. I was gifted this. The thought was appreciated, the whiskey itself, not so much.....

Whisky tasting at a local shop:
Couvreur "Overaged", very basic pure malt, unpeated, clean and well crafted
Couvreur "Candid", only 6yr old, yet very rounded, matured in PX cask
Couvreur "Blossoming Auld Sherried", best of the tasting, 15yr old matured in PX, marvelously balanced, beautiful sherry note.
Uberach (from Alsace, aged in Banyuls cask), a big surprise, very delicate, well crafted.
Bunnahabhain Toiteach un-chillfiltered (slightly more peated than the usual Bunnahabhain, still very subtle), not exactly cheap, but still my QPR favourite of the tasting.

Took home a bottle of Bunnahabhain Toiteach and Couvreur Blossoming Auld Sherried

Good idea to try them all side by side vs. saving for one at a time. I once did that with all the Remy's from their basic Cognac through to the Louis X111, all from full bottles so we has some left over for later. The difference was clear as we moved though the progression.

Enjoy your your whiskey tasting!
