gotcha, just curious if there was an actual term out there. I agree with all 3 of those adjectives (for any scotch, really).

It's good. VERY peaty.

We got into the Redbreast last night - that shit is GOOD. So, we finished the bottle.

Probably my favorite liquor of any variety. Been too long since I've had one, though.

so the liquor store that promised me a bottle of Pappy when it came in the week of Thanksgiving actually received this:

i'm only slightly bummed, as i've never tried any of the van winkle line, but i was winning major father-in-law points with that Pappy. still, we'll polish off this bottle while we watch his cowboys lose!


Just received an email from the spirits buyer at my wine store saying that Pappy and the fall releases of the Buffalo Trace Antique Collection won't be hitting California stores for at least another 10 days. So don't give up hope yet.

Just found a bottle of Talisker 18 year old, unopened, in box.

Drink or give away as Christmas present?

Hmmm.

Just managed to score a bottle of Eagle Rare 17 Year from Bevmo so at least some of the Antique Collection has hit CA. I've been checking their online inventory every day and the George T. Stagg, Thomas Handy, and William Larue Weller are listed as out of stock so I'm guessing that those may have arrived and already sold out. That would just leave the Sazerac 18 year left to arrive. I don't know about Pappy. I know most stores don't even put that on the shelf but maybe Bevmo does and it just hasn't arrived yet. I'm going to keep looking.
