Beerball Posted December 26, 2011 Author Share Posted December 26, 2011 Generally, I ignore the Sphere O'suds What I thought was interesting was the nose on it was rather "medicinal." I was coming around to it as I continued sipping but it was not an immediate "I like this." I'm curious to see what good old Dad will think of it. I also picked up a bottle of Blantons reserve. There is no doubt in my mind that it will be very good. Bourbons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloBill Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 Bourbons Sure tease me with a new small batch single barrel that is not sold here. I might just have to drive to Kentucky to get some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CowgirlsFan Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 The Blantons was unreal - very good sipping Bourbon Our son a bar tender for Norweign Cruse Lines on the Pride of America stationed in Hawaii is enjoying Jameson shots in Thailand, Vietnam and Singapore for the holidays.

Jauronimo Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 I'm partial to Cragganmore for a smooth highland malt. Its a fine breakfast scotch too, as I'm not always in the mood for peaty, smoky, Islay malts early in the morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I killed my 18-yo Lagavulin on Christmas Eve, but think I have an open Cragganmore on the scotch shelf. Might have to investigate that tonight.

Jauronimo Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 (edited) Another good call. I killed my 18-yo Lagavulin on Christmas Eve, but think I have an open Cragganmore on the scotch shelf. Might have to investigate that tonight. Nice, its a smooth one with a nice edge to it. I'm still getting accustomed to the Islay malts, but I have enjoyed Lagavulin. I've got a wee bit of Dalmore to polish off before I get into the Glenmorangie I got for the Christmas. Probably my all time fave though is Edradour, another smooth sipper with a little sweetness to it. Edited January 4, 2012 by Jauronimo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bills_fan Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 Ahhhh....my fav topic! I am a huge fan of LaPhroaig. The 10 Yr Cask Strength is my fav scotch. I love the Lagavulin as well. The Distiller's Edition Lagavulin is fantastic. http://www.drinkhacker.com/2009/11/20/review-lagavulin-distillers-edition-1993/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the recommendation on Edradour; I haven't had that one, will have to put that on my To-Do list. Love the Glenmorangie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buffaloboyinATL Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 The Blantons was unreal - very good sipping Bourbon That is my current bourbon of choice. I also enjoy the Four Roses single batch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
