What kind of bottles are you working on now, anons? Kind of basic, but I've got a bottle of Glenlivet 12 and another of Knob Creek Straight.
johnnie walker green is back for a limited time
it's the only johnnie walker worth drinking because it is a blend of single malts only, like monkey shoulder. no caramel or eau de vie like all other blended whisky.
The Glenfiddich 12 was underwhelming, is Glenlivet any better?
>>7623880
I'm quite fond of it, but I also enjoy Glenfiddich 12 as well. What did you find underwhelming about Glenfiddich?
>>7623588
Bought a bottle of MacAllen Amber
Pretty good, liked it more than Ardbeg which i drank some time ago
Also better than Jura
>>7623588
Got this as a present. Breddy gud desu
>>7624941
Jura seems to get a lot of flack, being weak and rough at the same time while playing on exciting words and dumb myths.
this shit is what a stamina potion probably tastes like
I got some Grant's for tonight.
>>7624963
this is some seriously good shit right here.
>>7623588
This complete unknown cheap scotch showed up at the corner store so I picked up a bottle. Prior to this I scored a bottle of Grant's, only one left on the shelf, which was really good. I still have a dram left of that. I'm saving it because it's better than this new stuff, plus the store has no more Grant's.
>>7625753
I mean Grant's is better. Don't bother trying this shit, I just bought it because it's cheap and I'm outside the country so the normal stuff is expensive.
>>7623588
That's my fave, the one that got me into Scotch. I bought my dad a bottle of 18 but I like 12 better. It's rounder, has more body.
Too fucking drinkable
>>7623588
"working on"? You're such a pretentious fag. I just buy the thing and drink it. I bet you people also drink "beer" with less than 5% alcohol. Stupid hipster fags.
>>7624998
Glen Grant makes some fine single malts. Not my favorite, but one of the few I have no complaints about at all.
Birthday coming up and ive asked for Blantons, Old Grandad and Elijah Craig
Currently drinking a Glenkichie, seriously good shit
>>7626707
What's a good Islay to start with? Tried Bowmore, but I couldn't tell if it was because Bowmore is shit or if I just don't like Islays in general.
>>7626713
Just beat yourself in the head with a hammer, m8, you'll get the same result you're obviously trying for.
>drinking liquor
Enjoy your empty calories, faggots
>>7626723
I do like me some Glenkinchie. Too bad finding Lowlands stuff is like finding hen's teeth.
>>7626733
Stupid poser fedora faggot people drink to get drunk, not to show off how sophisticated they are.
>>7626740
Then why do you even feel the need to render an opinion on whisky? Look, I've found the perfect stuff for you, it'll get you drunk quick at a minimum of cost. http://www.sigmaaldrich.com/catalog/product/sial/459844?lang=en®ion=US
>>7626755
Please give tasting notes on that fine bottle.
>>7626729
Leapfrog is a basic Islay.
Knob Creek
Ardbeg Uepraighskfbeb(whatever it is) Islay Scotch
Mclallen 10 for a sweeter, oily Single Malt
last bit of Woodford Reserve(wouldn't get again)
A local Distillery's award winning Gin.
If an alcohol isn't good neat, then there's no reason to drink it myself. I'll give cheaper stuff to friends.
>>7627084
Rather harsh on the nose, with mild hints of acetone and isopropanol.
Also rather harsh on the palate, though I was able to detect a bit of something resembling benzene.
No idea about the finish, since my mouth was so dried out that I could no longer taste anything.
I would recommend using it in a cocktail, perhaps with a bit of rhodium chloride and triphenyl phosphine to make a fine Wilkinson's Catalyst.
I have a Grant's, a Tullamore Dew and 25 half-liters from a private cask of Mackmyra.
Poland Spring. got two handles cuz I lost one for a while.
also half a bottle of Jose I stole from my gf(replaced it but still have the half joint)
i fucking hate tequila
>>7623588
I just killed a Laphroaig 10-year.
First glass kicked my ass, but I was really enjoying it by the last and I am now sad the bottle is gone; doubly so since I only bought it two weeks ago and it was like $90CAD.
I can't justify regularly dropping that much on booze.
Like others in the thread, I've got a Laphroaig 10.
I was given it as a gift. I'm pretty new to whisky. I really like the mouth taste, but how do I deal with the alcohol burn going down the throat? Is it something you get used to? I'm drinking it neat by the way.
>>7630276
Try with a little ice - much better that way imo
>>7630388
I have tried it like that with other (worse) whiskies and it is much more tolerable. Hopefully doesn't ruin the taste.
i am really enjoying this.
>>7625084
Depends which one you get.
Origin is rubbish, superstition is decent, Elixer is good, and Prophecy is very good.
>>7626707
I picked up a bottle of that for £20 in Costco, looking forward to opening it this weekend.
It is a really good whisky, one of my all time favourites.
