Did an Irish Whiskey night. @Simple_Man came with me. It’s a good way to sample without having to buy a whole bottle.
That looks like fun!
sure, sure… no phone calls, texts or anything to your ol pal… i see how it is…
as a side note, ive heard good things about the connemara in the past
The connamera was my least favorite. It’s smoke infused (over burning peat). It’s aroma was like chloraseptic, and my lips went numb. It was advertised as a “hug in a glass”. Not what i would classify it as.
And as a point of reference, next month i will invite you @GamecockOperator .
wow. thats odd. i wouldnt have thought that.
i will look forward to hearing from you on it ![]()
The Redbreast was my favorite…i had quite a bit of that, but not enough that i cant type. ![]()
Edit: what can i say, ive always been a boob kind of guy.
haha yeah you are.
that will pose a problem. i doubt the mrs would like a drunken gamecock to crash on the couch lol so if i come to said tasting i’ll have to go very light on the tasting side lol
Tell your mrs to be the dd…
I have tried a couple of good Bourbons in the last two weeks. Old Forester 1920 and Daviees County Kentucky straight.
The Old Forester is very surprisingly smooth at 115 proof.
I’m a cheap bourbon guy though. My go to is Benchmark 8. Made by Buffalo Trace and about $19.00 for a handle.
I actually prefer rum to bourbon, but my go to is always a good beer (not bud, miller, etc.)
Yea I have an affection for high gravity beer. Imperial IPA’s etc. I got into bourbon a little bit to try and shave calories. It ain’t working.
Not a fan of IPAs. Dont mind a good high gravity though, just dont drink many of them.
If the next tasting if near Simpsonville, msg me plz.
I like whiskey, Love Highland (non-peaty) scotch (most anything from The Macallan), and also love dark rums. The occasional Arto Fuente Hemingway lone cigar is also appreciated.
They are all in my neighborhood in Lexington. That way we can walk home. ![]()
I’ll do one in Nevada in my neighborhood. If I start it at 7 AM, no one will be home… It’ll be nice and peaceful!
You can’t drink all day if you don’t start early.
maybe thats why i didnt wanna go last time cause its a neighborhood thing. now i think i reemmber you telling me about it before
Oh, is THAT what you call it? “Walking”……
@guitarguy You need to try Papa’s Pilar Rum! Made in Key West, Florida and it’s gggooooddd!
Will see if my local store can order it.
