        Just bought a bottle of this. Every house needs a bottle of good whisky right?..

          Indeed, and that's one of my favourites - good choice!

                that's always good choice (except you spend serious money).

                    I wanted a decent bottle… Had a 30 € self-imposed limit, spent 33... All good...

                      I came across this the other day at the local liquor outlet among a few other gems.

                                the set for last night: listen to all Stephen Malkmus & the Jicks records in order of appearance whilst drinking whisky.
                                the outcome: a heavily indigo stained living room wall (from dancing on the sofa), a partly broken sofa
                                & the christening of my golden nugget bybeatle shirt  by accidentally sleeping in it.
                                but, no hangover, thanks bourbon!

                                    I love Blanton's. Please report back on the Special Reserve.

                                      It's pretty good. Definitely a good bottle, but not quite as exciting as the standard stuff available Stateside. It's a lower ABV to appeal to the markets abroad that tax liquor based on proof, so it's only 80 proof. I tried a little neat and decided to add a couple cubes, but I think that was a mistake. I'll try one cube tonight and try to give an actual review. I did a little research when I got back and found that there are a couple other Blanton's available abroad that I'd like to try as well. The cask strength, and the gold label. Yes please.

                                        Interesting. Thank you for your thoughts and info, seawolf. I didn't know they distributed abroad.

                                          Me either, and I found it on sale for about $25 USD! I had to buy it 🙂
