fokker4me Posted May 27, 2013 Posted May 27, 2013 Brugal 1888 in the glass at the Carnegie Club in Manhattan. With a friend drinking some Ron Zacapa, the go to rum.
sengjc Posted June 12, 2013 Posted June 12, 2013 Glenrothes 1969 40 Year Old, bottled at cask strength of 45.8% alc by Duncan Taylor for their Octave and Quarter Cask Series. Freshly poured: not much going on the nose as for the palate. No doubt the wood influence is significant but this is readily balanced by the big sherry profile and underlying coconut notes that suggests some American oak maturation. Sweetness, fruity, vanillin oakiness and creamy with an oily, glycerine-like mouthfeel, then progressing to coconut and spice flavours, blue cheese notes and phenol like. Finally, becoming dryish, varnishy, meaty and savoury-salty. Harmonious integration with a lingering warmth when swallowed as the aftertaste expands to fill every part of your mouth. Ultra smooth and complex with a finish that lasts and lasts, still as vibrant 15 mins on. The bouquet blossoms with time spent in the glass. A humbling privilege to be able to taste something that is older than yourself and apparently limited to 72 bottles in the world (apparently).

sengjc Posted June 12, 2013 Posted June 12, 2013 Sengjc - what is going on with the rim of your whisky glass in the picture above?! Needs a proper clean, I think. This glass gets used a lot.
canadianbeaver Posted June 12, 2013 Posted June 12, 2013 Ok laddies, time to crack open my new acquisition ... Note how light in color it is? Don't let this fool you. She packs a delicious punch just on the edge of peat.

Jefferson Posted June 27, 2013 Posted June 27, 2013 During the warehouse sale last night I enjoyed a couple glasses of Redbreast 12. Went well with the pair of Party D-4's I smoked.
Nino Posted July 2, 2013 Posted July 2, 2013 A bottle of one of the best German Riesling’s, brought by Hans, practically from his neighbourhood as he lives around the corner from Eberbach monastery. The Steinberger Riesling Spätlese from Kloster Eberbach is considered a rarity and highly sought after, being the largest wall-enclosed vineyard in Germany : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steinberg,_Kloster_Eberbach Cigar was a Litto Gomez Pelo de Oro Doble Corona that had a fantastic aroma and taste while being unusually strong for a Dominican. The last third became more powerful and slightly bitter, but a fine looking, well constructed and very good cigar.
