Any recommendation that’s along those lines but not $200+ for a bottle?
And tonight I polished off the last of my Lagavulin 16 year. I don’t usually care for peaty scotches but this one is pretty good with a few ice cubes to mellow it out. While it’s pretty good, I probably won’t be replacing it. Islay scotches aren’t my bag.
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I love port finished whisk(e)y. If you’re not opposed to Irish whiskey, I would suggest the Bushmills 16yr Single Malt. It matures separately for 15 years in both ex-bourbon and oloroso sherry casks, then it’s married together for an additional year in a port cask. One of the best drinking whiskeys I’ve had to date. I want to say it goes for around $100 per bottle. There is also a Bushmills Single Malt 21yr, which is finished in Madeira, but I think the 16yr is its superior.

^ In case you're not aware, Breck is a fucking walking encyclopedia of everything whisk(e)y-related. Trust this man.

Yeah I’ve been wanting to go to one of Breck’s tasting sessions but the stars have never aligned right for me to get a night away.
Breck, thanks for the recommendation. I’m gonna order that one. I found it for $96 on Flaviar.

Drinking White Russians and watching the Big Lebowski.
Gotta drink another one every time The Dude does.
This might not end well for me.
Edit: Damn it. He’s drinking yet another one. Not sure if I can keep up.

 An "Indian Cosmo" . . . minus the sugar syrup, since it's sweet enough without it. Don't judge.

L_O_G loves his Tito’s vodka so I figured I’d try some. Forgot how much I hate vodka. Was inspired recently by the Big Lebowski to drink some White Russians. Now I kinda really, really like White Russians.
