Swilling the last of the gin tonight.
It was smooth and tasty!It may be a bit tough to enjoy their other offerings after that bottle.Cheers!
Beer night!
In laws asked if I wanted some wine. They hardly drink. Since they can’t entertain during COVID. I said sure I’ll be glad to take some reds off your hands. Then said look at our liquor cabinet. So tonight I’m having some J&B from 1991 I believe?
Cheap thrills
Famous Grouse Winter Reserve
I like nearly everything from them especially the 12y vatted Malt and The Naked Grouse.

I just found out my son had shipped me a 750ml of The Dead Rabbit Irish Whiskey for my B-Day. After the S#%* show today has been at work looking forward to testing it out this evening.
after a full day of cleaning and grocery shopping, the wife and I deserve a little down time.
Last evening began with an Eagle Rare OF as the rest of the crew went with espresso martinis. The evening finished with a tasting of three California wines: 2015 Flanagan Syrah, 2017 Eleven Eleven Cab, and 2015 Biale Old Kraft Vineyard Zin. The Syrah was my favorite. The wine aficionado brought several more bottles to sample later this holiday week.

Surprisingly cheap for a peaty whisky!
Went down very well with ice and a final round with coke.

I need to know how it was!!!!
Delicious by my tastebuds. Sweeter than I was expecting, but then again I’ve never had a vintage port. I didn’t follow the traditional drinking vintage port things to do. I didn’t decant it, or open it a couple hours before drinking. I did pour it in a mason jar, so maybe somewhat decanted. Then from there I poured it in my wine glass. I’m on the last glass right now.
Very sweet on the front end, a bit dry on the back end. I’m going to buy another bottle and sit on it for a decade or so.
Glad you enjoyed it! So after 9 years in the bottle, it’s still pretty much about the fruit and hasn’t developed the fig/raisin/nut character?
I’m not the guy that tastes all those flavors. As hard as I try it just tastes sweet to me.
I got some blue cheese to eat with it and I thought blue cheese was freaking disgusting. Threw that out straight away. I got some figs as well, and although they tasted OK, I didn’t like the grittiness of the seeds.
