Including spelling it right It's a right bastard being in Ireland with a bunch of Sweaty Socks who are incessantly moaning about the Irish inability to spell Whisky...

RUSHian62 Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 A cheap night for me is a half pint of Blackberry Brandy on the rocks, and 3 or 4 Balentine Ales and I'm good for the night. We were doing boiler makers with a shot of Bailey's, Jameson's with Guiness for a forth of July party. I drank about ten of them. They taste just like a chocolate shake, but I was so wasted, it didn't taste good on the way out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greyfriar Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 You're right about Bowmore - I forgot to mention the Laphroaig-good one. Just wondering about the prices of scottish Whisky because here in Germany they're much cheaper than in Scotland. Laphroaig-20 Pound Lagavulin-39 Pound Always makes me smile when travelling to Scotland re-importing a bottle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony R Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 For all the snobbery (and finery) of single malts, Johnnie Walker Green Label is my favourite tipple. One to avoid is the Welsh single malt Penderyn. Absolute shite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's shit. Such a shame, it should work. It has no nose, pleasant enough taste......but there's more of a finish in a Wibbly Wobbly Wonder.

I prefer Canadian blends. Don't know why. I also like a couple of whiskey liquers. American Honey is great as well as Seagram's Dark Honey. Fireball. Or a Black Russian.

It's impossible to get the truly great American whiskies over here, there's a Sazerac 18 and a Hotaling's Old Portrero Single Malt, both are supposedly sensational. One day........

Hopefully heading to NJ in the Autumn....that should sort me out! If you are going to be in NJ for a definite period of time, and know the address ahead of time, you may wish to order a bottle of Templeton's Small Batch American Rye online on Binny's. The only place other than online you can get it is in a few liquor stores in Iowa and the Chicago market. Good stuff! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pedro2112 Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 I had some of this (finally!) at the bar at the Fairmont Mirimar in Santa Monica a couple of weeks ago. It was so good that I ordered a bottle online from Binny's and it's being shipped to the Pedro compound as we speak! It's 100 proof and 100% american rye, baby! http://www.proof66.com/images/WhistlePig_Rye_Whiskey.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
