I typically like single malts. I do NOT like overly peaty smoked whisky. It tastes like cigarette butts and window cleaner diluted back with methanol and gasoline.

It was slightly vegetal on the palate. Also a bit mineraly, like a multi-vitamin. Also had lots of notes of caramel, dried fruits and spices. Very lightly peated, if at all. This is one of only 36 bottles in the US.

Just got home from hours at the outlet mall in auburn with my wife. Nothing of interest there for me. I needed a drink after that so stopped at total wine. I've never had the anjeo so I figure I would give it a try. It's damn smooth!

I like to infuse tequila with hot peppers. Normally I'm pretty decent at it, but this week I fucked up. Totally forgot to pull the habaneros out after a couple days. Habanero fuckfest tequila is a bit over the top, and my morning constitutional is going to be a literal pain in the ass.

Soaking some meat in that sauce is as far as I would take it. A pork roast or something marinated 48+ hours......yeah baby.

One of the best whiskies for the price, for sure. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I feel like I keep getting lucky with the whiskies I pick. Except for the bottle of Slow & Low rye whiskey that I bought a month or so back. So sweet I puked. Seriously. Instant gut rot. Please do not ever subject yourself to that.

Cracked open a bottle of Green Label.
Probably my 3rd favorite Johnnie Walker.

I'm sipping some Jose Cuervo out of a whisky glass . . . let me 'splain. I grabbed a whisky glass and went over to the liquor area, intending to pour some Evan Williams bourbon. I poured, went back to the couch, sat down and sipped. "WTF is this???" Yep, I guess my mind was on other things when I was doing the pouring. But I tell ya . . . this stuff tastes pretty good.
