Hard Drinkers, Lets Drink Hard (Spirits, Liquors and Cocktails)

Blantons,if/when you can find it. All the Cask Strength Makers Mark is single barrel. Just looked up to see where you’re located,and if you can find the Blantons Gold Top bottles that Blantons makes especially for the European market,it’s out of this world. Pretty expensive,about $110 US. Last time someone brought some back for me.

I am no expert… but I like Jack Daniels Single Barrel - Barrel Strength and Blanton's Straight from the Barrel

[Jett129]

Blantons Straight from The Barrel is next level. I have a bottle at home that I take out for special occasions. The JD,while not technically bourbon, is OK. I wouldn’t turn it down.

How much is it in the US?.. Haven't done a real search but am seeing the single for 40€, gold for 60, straight for  70… Two versions of the latter: 64.8% and 65...

[Jett129]

The Gold,and The Straight From the Barrel are not available in the US. Someone brought some back from the UK for me a few years ago. They were more expensive than what your showing.

If any of you come across this in your travels,grab it without hesitation. Really delicious. If you hate Makers you won’t like it,but you’ll definitely be able to sell it at a profit in a few years. I only got 2,plan on drinking 1.

When your mate stops by for lunch with a third of a bottle cause he "has too many bottles at home"…

Can't wait to try this...

[Jett129]

I don’t even like Scotch,but something tells me that will be awesome. The real question is what beer,if any, will you pair with it?

[Seul]

Not pairing it with owt… Would be a shame...

Xmas pressie from my little boy, who knows I love a good grog…

Nice sweet caramel with a good heat afterburn. Neat obviously.

[neph93]

Never really got on that well with rum. I sort of wish I could enjoy it more.

One of the sillier (but very welcome) things I received for xmas, plus a bottle of Nikka Days which was a present to myself as a reward for not losing anybody on the family trek around the south of England.

Before…

After…

Received a bottled of Laphroaig 25 as part of my Christmas bonus this year.  In short, a delicious, smooth, peat bomb.  I would have to say my favorite ever, followed fairly closely by Ardbeg Uigedail.  Note, even with how good it is, I could not fathom personally paying for this bottle.  It’s delicious but not sticker price good.
