Steve, one time after an offline you and I walked to a pub near the restaurant and you insisted on treating me to a shot of something you were surprised to see. Any chance you recall what that was?

Been on a bit of a bourbon run lately:

Four Roses OBSO
Maker's Mark Old Fashioned last night.

It might have been Midleton Irish Whiskey, but not certain.

Johnny Walker Blue at a Christmas party.

That was a nice party.

I was turned on to that in Edinburgh. I really enjoy the 3 Wood as well.

I didn't try that one, but we visited The Whisky Castle in Tomintoul in the central highlands. After tasting several rare bottlings, I picked two to bring home and I still haven't opened them. I'm waiting until I have a wider experience with single malts.

Different strokes....

It's one of my least favorite, along with Bushmills 18 yr old.

Talisker Dark Storm, a special version aged in charred oak casks. Very similar to Loch Dhu, this 10 year yummy is worth discovering.

Been sipping a little Rock Hill Farms bourbon, neat.

Cragganmore 29 special edition

Agreed as far as different strokes. Have you tried The Irishman?

Glenmorangie 18- wonderful!

Old rare whisky of the highlands. First time drinking this! Very smooth refined blended whisky.

Woodford Reserve.

Gentleman Jack

Over the last few days...

Old Scout Smooth Ambler 10 Year Bourbon

Cragganmore 12

Abraham Bowman Virginia Whiskey

Jamesons for me

Hennessy for FKG -

Last night with friends from back home:
23 year Elijah Craig Bourbon - absolutely delicious, very smooth
Buffalo Trace Single Barrel - nice stuff, good value
and some 2012 Raspberry Eisbock from Kuhnhenn (not distilled of course but was delicious!)

FEW single malt. Evanston, Illinois product. I live in evanston and want to love this and recommend it. I can't. So green and unpleasant. The bourbon and rye are better. Give them a few more batches to improve on the single malt.

Pun intended.

Blanton's Original Single Barrel Bourbon Whiskey- great stuff at this price point...a real crowd-pleaser.

Bought myself a late Christmas present of a Highland Park 18. Very nice!!

Yamakazi 12 Year Old Whiskey.

Bacardi 8 year

Ardbeg Supernova (2010 release)

Treaty Oak Distilling Red Handed Bourbon
