Popular Post BrightonCorgi Posted February 10, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted February 10, 2019 Went to a cigar and whiskey tasting last night and we had some good whiskies. I am not too into Scotch or Bourbon, but was said these are good ones. The cigars were all Davidoff's and were really fantastic. Great change of pace for me and would recommend any that were presented. Was small event with about 10-12 people. I could've taken home some of the bottles, but don't really drink Scotch at home. Was casual event that went on for hours. Anyone familiar with this bottle of Willett? 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post prodigy Posted February 10, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted February 10, 2019 This is really good stuff. I have had it for a while but decided to slow it down when it got down to about 1/4 full. The flavor has blossomed into a beautiful bouquet of sweet floral notes.

The guy who brought it said it's worth like 1K. The Highland 18 was terrific too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr.T Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 A bit young, no? 2016 is a good vintage.Yes, totally agree with you on youth and vintage. I just wanted to try it out - I have little restraint most times. I should go back and grab one and try to be more patient Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's easy to let them age once you have a good impression in the mind on what wine tasted like. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irratebass Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 2017 Little Book.

Ken Gargett Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 i put this up in another thread and then realised it should probably be here. lunch with a few mates the other day, with some thoughts. don't have the notes with me so going off memory for thoughts and vintages - pol roger sir winston 2002 - as good as one could hope. gosset celebris 2004 - fair, thought it would be better. shown up by those around it. philipponnat clos des goisses 'les cintres' 2008 - spectacular. first time any of us had ever seen this. trimbach 'clos st hune' 2012 - as good as any clos st hune i've ever seen. amazing. the next two were blind (but served in the bracket with the clos st hune). trimbach geisberg 2012 - decent. probably would have looked better by itself, rather than being shown up by the clos st hune. rene renou 'Anne' Bonnezeaux 1997 - rich, old, sweet, complex. a few of the guys dismissed it on arrival but they all keot their glasses and finished the lot. next bracket - bouchard meursault geneveries 2005 - opened a bit dull but soon came around and was lovely. bonneau du martray corton charlemagne 2012 - a very good Bonneau but not one of the greats. at least not yet. reds - bouchard 'Le Corton' 2005 - again, very good, but i am never convinced that corton deserves elite grand cru status. may be, with a lot of age. Elio Altare Brunate Barolo 1999 - as good a Barolo as one could ever wish for. amazing. i'd read Altare considered this his best and now see why. Pichon Lalande 1986 - okay but seen better days. latour 2004 - i have mates who are fans of 2004. you could see why from this one but i suspect it is the best of the vintage. Magnum of Yquem 1989 (i won this from a mate in a bet - and yes, he was there to share it). wonderful. a fantastic mature Yquem. quinta do noval nacional 1960 - best of the nacionals i've seen (70 was another fave). i think it is also the oldest. a few from the 80s i think are overrated. okay but nothing close to the rep and price. this one was a beautiful mature port. just so close to perfect. not a bad day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t drink much rye straight except for older, overpriced stuff (my very last Sazerac 18 bought 15 years ago). Sazerac and Old Fashioned are my top 2 favorite cocktails.
