Lotusguy Posted August 22, 2015 Posted August 22, 2015 K&L trip. Went to the Redwood City store. Haven't been there for a long time. Much nicer than the SF store. 2x Bowmore 12 @ 59.1%, EH Taylor Small Batch, and a few bottles of Eagle Rare 10 Single Barrel #177. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk He he - I am about to swing by to pick up my bottle of the Eagle Rare I missed out on the Weller Special Reserve KL Cask that they had yesterday for about 5 minutes before it sold out The SF store is supposed to be huge once they move into the new space. 1
fabes Posted August 22, 2015 Posted August 22, 2015 Was hoping to score one of those Bowmore bottles, but you two (and probably plenty of other people) snatched em up before I could get em. Snooze & lose I guess.

Snooze & lose I guess. My first and only order of them. I'm sure Claus has like 30+ bottles of them . I bought them when they were down to 10 bottles. I mean the regular Bowmore 12 is around $45. Finally realized it's a no-brainer purchase. If you're a bourbon guy, I'd recommend getting the Eagle Rare. It's the same price as the current non-single barrel ER10. If you can't make it to the Redwood City store (only store where it's in stock), you can always place an order for Will Call at the SF store.

ChanceSchmerr Posted August 24, 2015 Posted August 24, 2015 That and the re-release of Laphroaig 15 is spectacularly mediocre. The pre-royal warrant stuff is exceptionally good. Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk Speak for yourself. I loved the nuanced delivery of the new Laphroaig 15. Why go for heavy peat when the 10yr, QC and Cask Strength do it already? It's the 18yr they have to do something about. weak delivery, the ultimate "meh" Islay whisky.
Rye Posted August 24, 2015 Posted August 24, 2015 I love that Ron Millonario. Unfortunately, I don't know any retailer in my neck of the woods that still carries it I am excited to try both as I can't remember if I have or not.
Popular Post dangolf18 Posted August 25, 2015 Popular Post Posted August 25, 2015 Paid around 300 for all this. Today was a good day. Aberlour 18 Year Balvenie Doublewood 12 Balvenie 14 Year CC (2 bottles) Balvenie 15 (discontinued) Glenmorangie 10 Lagavulin 16 Ardbeg Uigeadail 6
dangolf18 Posted August 25, 2015 Posted August 25, 2015 That's a helluva scotch haul for 300 bucks! Tell me about it. It was from a private seller and that was his ASKING price lol. Only wish he had more to sell...mentioned he sold a few bottles of Balvenie 21 last week...smh. Probably wasn't asking more than $100 a bottle.

shlomo Posted August 27, 2015 Posted August 27, 2015 Anybody try the Glenlivet Guardians Chapter/Exotic? Worth a shot at $65 or complete rubbish? Have to say I'm intrigued by the higher ABV and potential "sherryness" of it.

Have to say I'm intrigued by the higher ABV and potential "sherryness" of it. Nicely sherried and very fragrant. Mildly feinty probably from some young material used in the vatting.
shlomo Posted August 27, 2015 Posted August 27, 2015 Nicely sherried and very fragrant. Mildly feinty probably from some young material used in the vatting. Thanks. What does "feinty" mean?
shlomo Posted August 27, 2015 Posted August 27, 2015 Nicely sherried and very fragrant. Mildly feinty probably from some young material used in the vatting. 65 USD. It's 86 CDN locally. How much is it by you?
sengjc Posted August 27, 2015 Posted August 27, 2015 Thanks. What does "feinty" mean?[/quote"Feint" as in the feints: lighter and more volatile products of the distilled spirit that are produced at the start of distillation.

Popular Post sastrooper Posted August 28, 2015 Popular Post Posted August 28, 2015 Dont see these everyday, esp here down under. And check out the condition of the bottle, immaculate! 5
sengjc Posted August 29, 2015 Posted August 29, 2015 I see. Thanks. So basically not good. It can be considered a flaw but the whisky overall is very good for what it's worth. 1
