Oh it is not so great I think, and most of the time I know what I want (Black Label, Glenfiddich for regular drinking), the rest of my collection either comes from Scotland or specialist scotch shops....
Hmmm. I really liked being offered so many different FREE taste tests there! I don't think I've ever been in a Scotch specialty shop. Sounds intriguing.
Glenfiddich is what you like? He's got that, but not this old Glenlivet. PFK has a Scotch Bible that lists all the distilleries; a favorite read for him. Definitely prefers single malt and keeps saying "the Peatier, the Better". <shudder> I just pick one for him that looks interesting and get it. No science involved.
max, I'm not familiar with the idea that we can't have beer whereever or whenever. Do you? c.i. p.s., I had to put my .02c worth in, because I saw the 1,000 hits on your forum.
Bless you c.i., and thank you.
And YOU,
You can drink whatever you want my good friend.
A good freind who lives in Tennessee has come up for The Holidays, escorting a few jugs of his famous, crystal-clear Home Product. There is much to be said for thoroughly uncivilized whiskey ... once you are able to breath again.

timber, man, damn am i jealous. the color only comes from being aged in oak barrels, anyway -- and who can wait?
tland: Just don't drink so much you'll need a german shepard and white cane.
(i thought it was too much of something else that did that to you.)
Well, there is that, pdog.
I thought they always went hand in hand...
Uh, lessee...depending on the time of day: wine, single malt (I have some Balvenie Double Wood at home now; was b'day gift), sherry or port. A friend is visiting for the holiday, which neither of us celebrate, but no matter. A bottle of Madeira will be there for the occasion!
All hail the Fourth Musketeer!
An accomplished verbal swordsman if ever there was!
Welcome!
(Mental note, "one more scotch drinker")
Ooooh, good idea, I'll ask for wine for my bday....
Thanks, maxsdadeo, and I propose a toast in your direction!
That doesn't mean that I am going to be pelted with slighltly cooked bread, does it?
Mais non, Maxs, only a fine libation of your choice!
And yes, before anyone asks, I already knew that!!
