Never understood the price delta for GG over say, absolut or Smirnoff. To me, all vodka’s aspire to be invisible and why pay more for more-less? Course I only use vodka with OJ or Clamato juice...

Thanks to seeing tc sipping by the fire the other night, had to break out the creek.
High test to offset the chill in the northern air.

Cheers men.

Bought a bottle of proper twelve last fall and didn’t find it bad at all. Not as smooth as Jameson’s 3 year old equivalent, but certainly not turpentine either. Made by bush mill for McGregor,...

Not that I remember...

Winter’s dark and full of flavour.

I have not seen this up here yet!
Very disappointing.
Was inspired while away to build a new chandelier for the front hall.
Below, the inspiration.. will be a work of love acquiring the raw...

Just returned from Ireland with a new appreciation for Jameson Whiskey, and pot still whiskey in general.
Toured the distillery, got my tasters pedigree and enjoyed learning all the steps in the...

In Dublin tonight across from the Jameson original whiskey manufacturing site.

Looking for some suggestions on whiskeys to try while over here?
Something we cannot get back home ideally....

Not normally a scotch guy, I was enjoying this tonight.

Had some fun adding drops of water and arguing about what taste was peat and what was seaweed, hehe.
Decided at 2 drops the toffee...

I didn’t expect it to be good Tom, to be honest..
Can’t explain it, like Salt and caramel, they just work together..
Figure I have Tc mad at the ice, let alone the diluting of fine Kentucky hooch,,...

So speaking of mixed bourbon drinks I have a bottle of Bombay Saphire East which aside from all the regular botanicals found in the original gin has added lemongrass and peppercorn to the mix. It...

More often than I remember, I think...

Writers tears is a tasty pot still whiskey from Ireland with an interesting flavour profile. Well worth a try if you come across a bottle.
Bush mill is another Irish staple worth sampling.
Cheers.

Think I might have to grab one as well. Shows 1 in stock at my local lcbo.

We can compare notes gents!

Wish I knew, can bring 151 proof from Dominican. Only $11 per 40 oz, plus airfare...

Some rye and ginger tonight.

Great idea Orv, but maybe wrong time of year to be sampling,,,,
:shrug:

Viva la difference in taste buds.
Mark 46 is one of my faves.

Will need to make an informed opinion on that myself, so tonight, Woodford Reserve shall be used.

I saw that recipe on FB and screen saved it fir the misses.
I forego the water for more ice and let mine rest 5 minutes before consuming,,,sometimes.
Hehe.

Evening. Sorry for the delayed response.
A whiskey, old fashioned.
1 sugar cube, splashed with 3-4 dashes of Angostura bitters to soften the sugar, muddled or mashed with some lemon and orange...

An old fashioned kind of night.

Morning men.
And personally, I can taste the oaky notes in the 46 compared to Makers or the Woodford reserve.
It is smooth on the tongue whil still having some heat like a higher octane bourbon.
