Thread: Scotch/whiskey of the day

Lynn, what is the first bottle on the left?
I picked up a bottle of Buffalo Trace Single Barrel this week, but really thinking hard on Eagle Rare for my next Bourbon.

In other news, Highland Park has a Youtube Channel. I watched a series of videos showing how they make Whisky from the peat being harvested to marrying and filtering. I consider myself an expert now>

Major jealousy here too. I read that they had a major Pappy heist at the distillery this year, so it will be even harder to get. I will post a link to the source if I can find it. I am trying to convince the wife we should visit the distillery when we see her friend that lives in KY this summer. My angle is that they do a haunted/ghost tour!

Tullamore Dew is my favorite as well.

I got a bottle of Glenlivet 18 year for Christmas I'll be trying out tonight.

It is snowing and I have a fire going. This seemed fitting

Same here. Cold and snowy so enjoying a glass of the quarter cask.

ThoSe are a few very nice bottles, and rare. Ive been on the hunt, but prices have skyrocketed so much lately.
