Rye Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Went in with one thing on my mind to get, and grabbed something completely different. Independent bottling of a red wine finished 8yr old Bowmore. I'm excited to give it a try. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puros Y Vino Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Grabbed a few wines while in Montreal for the herf in March. A selection of Sauternes. Far better selection in Quebec and reasonable pricing if you want some of this golden nectar. A nice Cava and Prosecco, also not available in Ontario to finish things off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StingMeadery Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 Ooo, what a thread this is! Here's a few of this years acquisitions so far. Stocking up on my bottled hydration. ImageUploadedByTapatalk1396623876.454229.jpg More Bowmore is a good thing. The Liamrig sherry cask pairs beautifully with a good cigar. ImageUploadedByTapatalk1396623925.452641.jpg I was gifted the Corryvreckan from a great BOTL at a gathering I hosted and it's a powerhouse of flavour, the Octomore I drank a third of my bottle at the first sitting, but that one won't be for everyone. I just grabbed the Laddie Black Art v3, and will try it out this weekend.

Mr.T Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 Tried this at the liquor shop and found it surprisingly smooth. Plenty of fruit (apricot)...And for $30! This bottle won't last long Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randomdude Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 I took advantage of some well stocked duty free shops in recent weeks...1l Caol Ila (my personal fav to date), 1l Laphroiag QA Cask, 1l Balvenie Triple Cask 12 Year, and 1l Talisker Darkest Storm. Hope to make these last until my bday in July! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optic101 Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 Got this one during the last trip. Don Papa supposed to be the first Rum from Philippines aged 7 years. Just released beginning of 2014. Tried it in Berlin and got their last bottle. Very sweet, very fruity. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puros Y Vino Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 A few recent additions. I've been talking to a friend who's be studying abroad to be a sommelier. He's given me some tips on recent releases, answered questions about my favourite staples etc. One thing he stressed to me was the following. And I'll paraphrase. "Do not miss out on 2011 Port". If you're the wine investor type, a case at $1000/12 now could possibly fetch $20 - $30K in 20 years. If you truly enjoy the wine and are patient enough, the 2011 Port will be an excellent experience now and an ethereal one in 5 - 10 - 20 years in the future. I am definitely not the wine investor type. But I enjoy Port with a cigar; immensely. I've come close to drinking a 750ml bottle in one sitting just because I had enough stellar cigars on hand to go with it. So, without further ado, here's my meager 2011 Port "collection". Two bottles of Porto Calem One bottle of Cockburn's 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tino Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 I've been talking to a friend who's be studying abroad to be a sommelier.

Undoubtedly the 2011s will be incredible wines to drink if you have the patience though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
