After a very long time I purchased a scotch which is not a single malt. After a couple of drinks, I am wondering if it is a pass / fail, but tending towards a fail.

Today
1. Johnny Walker Green Label Blended Malt 15 yo
2. Laphroaig Lore
3. Irish Whisky - Redbreast 12yo

I only buy what I can drink in a reasonable amount of time (2-3 months). This is how it was looking last week.

I'll put it this way I loved that stuff when I was (check notes) 15 and I snuck a sip out of my parents liquor cabinet. Then by the next time I tried it I found something artificial and weird about it.

It’s best when mixed with a ginger ale and handed to someone else (like my brother for instance)

Is your brother 15 or is he 16?

 

[LotusEater]

I think he’s 57
Maybe when he grows up his palette will evolve

Temperature has climbed here in LA, so treating this weekend like the end of summer -- and thus, a few daiquiris tonight (rum and lime juice, not even need for any sugar).

That is a lovely combination! WLW is my favorite from the Buffalo Trace Antique Collection.

We’re 3 days in, so I’ll get the new month rolling with my last pour of Rowan’s Creek. Have a great weekend all. Cheers!

I’m drinking some of that Old Forester 1910 I see in your background. Great stuff! Really unique flavors. It’s like a carmel butterscotch dark chocolate dried dark fruit candy.

I agree. It‘s one of the most balanced and flavorful bourbons, being offered today. For a 93 proof spirit, it punches well above it‘s weight class. It’s one of my favorites, along with it‘s big brother, 1920.

Going to bust into this tonight. Cheers!

Craigellachie 13 Speyside Single Malt

 

[EssJaySea]

Going to open up the Cask Strength Red Breast tonight. I'm assuming it's good for one drink at a time, at 111.5 proof.

Happy Hour comes but once a day.

I'm enjoying a Diet Dr. Pepper.

I’ll start my evening off with my last pour of 1910. Cheers!
