Surucipe Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 Nice! That bottle of Mezan rum looks very interesting. Please let me know what you think of it when you've given it a try.
Tino Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 Nice! That bottle of Mezan rum looks very interesting. Please let me know what you think of it when you've given it a try. It's new to me, bought it on a whim to go with the Bourbon. Will open it at the weekend and let you know!

shlomo Posted February 2, 2014 Posted February 2, 2014 How is the Devil's Cask? I had the option of picking one up recently and picked up the Cask of Dreams, some JW Blue and some Laga 16 instead
REASON Posted February 2, 2014 Posted February 2, 2014 Actually have yet to have it probably try it today, but if it lives up to half the hype I will be happy. Is the cask of dreams Glenfiddich? I had some not to long ago.. I believe '11 batch was not over impressed for the prices. I'll let you know once I pour a dram.

I think it is 2012. 1
Lotusguy Posted February 8, 2014 Posted February 8, 2014 Since Clear Creek just sold the business, I had to stock up a little. Plus Costco just got in Talisker Storm which I've been meaning to try. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Lotusguy Posted February 8, 2014 Posted February 8, 2014 Claus, what do you make with the Cranberry Liqueur? It's divine over vanilla ice cream!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
westg Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 It's divine over vanilla ice cream!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I was going to ask the same question...I could not imagine drinking it, just to sweet. But over vanilla ice cream sounds good to me.Looks like you have some other fruity stuff there as well enjoy.
Lotusguy Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 Thanks! Their fruit brandy is pretty good (I'm spoiled by the awesome fruit brandy available in Germany but you can't get them here) and the liqueurs are good for desert toppings or for the ladies Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

AndrewNR Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 Talisker Storm the smoked whiskey?? What do you think? I believe i have a bottle somewhere..
Fosgate Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 I miss living in an area able to get great whiskey. People around here think Lord Calvert and Windsor Canadian is the gold standard with Crown Royal being what high rollers drink. Every time I'm in an area where there is good booze to be had I'm usually on another mission and I never get a chance to stop.
Lotusguy Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 Talisker Storm the smoked whiskey?? What do you think? I believe i have a bottle somewhere.. I don't believe it is smoked? Talisker is a bit peaty and this one is supposed to be more in-your-face, but frankly, I think it's just advertising to be able to sell a NAS bottle for more money than the regular 10YO... It will be a while before I get around to tasting it but when I do, I'll try to report back.

It will be a while before I get around to tasting it but when I do, I'll try to report back. I had it before. It is interesting, pure maritime and peat with profile without the balancing malt in a surprisingly light body for such a strong profile combination. Personally, I prefer the 10 YO to the Storm as I think it has more balance and body. Then again, your preference may differ.
MrT Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 I got my hands on a Amrut spec bottling for Sweden, have not opend it yet. I bought 2 bottles of Devils cask some time ago and the price on them went through the roof latley, sold one recently and I think I´m keeping the last one.
