Whiskey, Bourbon, and Other Fine Spirits!

My friend Jen was in Arizona recently and brought me back a sampler of my favorite tequila.
My next favorite is the setenta
Will wait until she is here next to share it with her

I am not a fan of the cheap down and dirty, lets do shots with salt and lime teKILLya either.
There are many tequila's that are "sip worthy" and that I hold in regard along with fine single malts

I’m with you there, just say no to shots. Sipping tequila is the best way to enjoy the good stuff.

I may just go and have a whisky just now.
Not sure yet which bottle to open....
Or maybe another red wine.
Or both

Are your eyes better now?

Are your eyes better now?

Good enough to find the wine and whisky
But seriously, yeah they seem to be healing well. Will go see the eye doctor next week as I had to rush to Europe.
So hopefully I get the all clear and new glasses.
Thanks for asking

A wee dram of The 15 Year Old Dalwhinnie as I slowly work away at the 8% Winterbeard Double Chocolate Cranberry Stout.

I am blessed with friends who must really love, er well at least really like me a lot... my birthday next week has a zero at the end of it, and this is what they got me!

Heading to family member's this weekend in So Florida. I'm told there is a bottle of Don Julio 1942 for me to try. I'm happy with $30-$60 range for anything but looking forward to this one.

I just looked that up, pretty spendy. I will have to try and find it next time we head to visit the Bro and Sister in law in Mex!

it was good, a bit sweeter than reg DJ. Too pricey for me though. I’m happy with milagro, espolon, Herradura and similar priced bourbon and rum

Enjoyed this last night, it was very nice

I have a bottle of 1942 here at home.....some friends and I made a Blond Margarita beer one day and sampled a few of my tequilas, everyone quite enjoyed the 1942. But agreed a little more than I would normally pay.

I quite enjoy agave based spirits...... tequila, mezcal, sotol, raicilla....difficult for me to choose a favorite. I have to say that I prefer the aged (ANEJO) versions as they tend to be softer and more complex but sometimes I prefer that aggressive agave flavor that makes you appreciate a quality agave spirit. With that said......I think I probably drink too much rum...... my next favorite and then bourbon. But if you are ever in China.....give BaiJiu (Buy Joe) a try....... some of it is decent.

Just had the last of a bottle of knob creek , started some buffalo trace. I think i like BT a little better. Its a little sweeter

I quite enjoy Knob Creek and BT but I'm a little more partial towards Four Roses myself.

Hmmm. Might have a pour of Van Winkle tonight

Happy to revive this old thread to honor Bob and TW, miss those guys...
I don't drink a lot of whiskey really, but when I do I enjoy the good stuff.
I purchased this bottle at an airport duty free on the way to visit Brother and Sister in law that live in Mexico. This my friends, I must say, is a rare drop

Only letting me post one picture at a time...
