      @northsouthdenimguy A quick google shows that the 21yo port finish Balvenie is selling at cheapest 220 GBP (280 USD).

          I’ve had that bottle for years now too like the other 21. One of the few we did not decimate in 2020. Occasionally, having a drink at home, but trying not to overdo it, especially on the more expensive harder stuff to get.

          Definitely not a collector but I like to pick up interesting stuff or just have it for when people come over…

            @northsouthdenimguy That is a fantastic looking collection. Always nice to be able to offer some guests some good choices. I do tend to keep the super rare stuff at the back of the cupboard away from public consumption.

            I purchased a cheap bottle of Jameson's specifically for my Brother in law who likes an Irish coffee occasionally. Throwing a nice single malt into a coffee drink upset me somewhat so the Jameson's bottle was procured.

                You haven’t lived until you pour a 21 year scotch and make a “Jack and Coke”. It’s possible that I may have done this once or twice in a pinch…

                      To be fair, the thought of Coke even without mixers is off putting to me. I just don’t like sodas. I grew up on the stuff but can’t abide it now.

                          Definitely. With liquor or clothing/boots although I do like a good bit of all of it, I don’t take any of it too seriously…

                              Tried to do a bit of searching and maybe it sounds a bit like chartreuse?

                                  it’s a liquor/ booze . but the absolutely top level with 60% alcohol. The bottle is made of some kind of stone stuff as it’s so strong 😁

                                      Had this guy and enjoyed it. I really love their 16 year though. Feel like it’s a good staple and great price/performance.

                                        @mclaincausey How does it compare to the 16? I buy a bottle of the 16 every year around this time, and I've been curious about the 11.

                                            @seawolf it’s beyond serviceable but easily it is worth the premium for the 16 IMO.

                                            Bought this for a friends birthday. Very good! Amazingly smooth for 106°
