@WhiskeySandwich I totally agree with quality per pour,and proof choice option trumping all else. I think quality per pour is an absolutely brilliant concept. The next time I’m doing bourbon tasting with a friend,I’m definitely going to bring that up.

@SKT sorry for the late reply. I’ll hold off on commenting because I need to try it alongside something else as a point of reference. I’ve had it for a while, too, which will have affected the taste.

Salut, frérot @hajduk

Vintage Negroni for my birthday at Frasca the other night… exceeded expectations!

[SKT]

Was at the farm last weekend for an annual get together with some college friends and thought it would be a good time to dip my toe into some fine Irish Whiskey inspired by @Mizmazzle and his trip overseas. My first experience outside of Jameson and man was this stuff tasty. Thanks for the recommendation Mark! I’ve also conferred with @Jett129 about a bottle of Green Spot I might try next time

[Jett129]

@SKT That’s entry level,their Cask Strenght is next. Just a richer tasting version of what you’ve got in your hand.

[Mizmazzle]

@SKT oh nice bro. Glad you liked it. Such an incredible pour. I found a bottle of the PX at an LQ near my house for a great price. Haven’t pulled the trigger though.

[Mizmazzle]

@Jett129 the cask strength is quite special. The PX and the cask are two bottles I’d love to keep in the cabinet at all times.

[Jett129]

@Mizmazzle The PX is next on my list as well.

... finished in Bas-Armagnac casks

@endo as a purist, the ice cube is killing me. Have you tried it neat to compare?

[endo]

yes, and both works well

@Jett129 welcome to the club

[goosehd]

@Jett129 …they forced me to succumb as well. Quite enjoyable and have had a few now.

Who would have thought that this place would be filled with a bunch of influencers…

First trip across the Atlantic.
First trip tuna fishing.
Countless laughs shared with friends from multiple countries.

[goosehd]

…and most importantly, the desire to do so again!

[SourPower]

@Jett129 the perfect balance of bittersweet, you should try a boulevardier some time which is quite similar but uses bourbon rather than gin as the base spirit- more Manhattan esque.

[Tago Mago]

@SourPower @Jett129 or use mezcal instead of gin. I may have mentioned this at some point already
