Bourbon is to Scotch what the Blues is to Jazz.
I like the Blues.

Just finishing my first bottle of single malt.
Highland park 12 yr.
And just cracked open #2
Singleton 12yr.
Again, very nice but also very different.
Last week I had Johnnie Walker Blue, and while it's VERY smooth, I thought it lacked flavor.

JONG - you don't drink them a bottle at a time. Have several going at once.

Gatorboy, shop on the internet too, as I find better deals (even with shipping) than I often find locally on Scotch. I have a bottle of Highland Park 12 yr old that the wife bought me for my b day and my sister bought me a bottle of Caol Isla that was a 12 year old too. The 18 year old Caol Isla is really good, but tough to find at a fair price these days. When buying for myself, I always buy 18 year old Highland Park or Caol Isla. If you have the money, the 25 year old Highland Park is great Scotch, but I only bought it once as it is pricey. Right now I have the three bottles in rotation with the 18 year old looking a little low

I know its an old thread...
Got a bottle of lagavulin for my birthday a while back...
Have not been drinking the single malt while it was real hot this summer..
But with the nice cool nights the past few days, felt the time was right...
Forgot how good it is...
Too bad it wont last long...
Can only mean one thing, ski season is around the corner...

Just picked up 2 bottles of Oban Cask Strength Limited Edition at their distillery, one for me, one for my dad. Tasty stuff.
Also tried some Jura Superstition - really smoky but good.

Well....
Have you tried it...?
Was it any good...?
Should be, Costco usually does things pretty well...

What does it mean when you look in on the Single Malt thread and when confronted with all the pretty whiskey porn you start salivating?
Middle of my day, haven't had lunch and all I want to do is go find a place to sit next to a river and drank whiskey all afternoon.
Is that wrong?

On the contrary, it is one of the things that is most right in the world! After reviewing this awesome thread, I feel the need for some peaty goodness...

I did...I bought two (one for my boss). The 18 year version has been touted in this thread as being "Nectar of the gods"...I haven't tried the 18 year version because it's ~$170/bottle...the 17 year bottle was $70. I agree though, it's REALLY good.
Could that last year really be worth an extra hundy?
Carvedog...rivers and whiskey just go together...carry on.

gotya say single malts are awesome and all and I have my favourites, but if yu EVER get a chance to try some Compass box blends, DO IT!

I tasted some high end blends in a store down in Baltimore recently. Couldn't remember if Compass was one. They were fine, but, for the price, I'll go a few dollars more for a pure one.
