Over the years I've tried most of the Johnnie Walker line. For a blended scotch, it's good. For my money, the best choice is Double Black. Cheaper than Black and tastes better. I've have Blue on several occasions and not yet paid for it myself. The flavor disappoints every time. Its nice to try once, but get someone else to foot the bill. :-)
The only problem being that you can't take your pocketknife into the UK. It used to be a fun place, years ago.
Do yourselves a favor guys and try Lagavulin if you can find it.
That is nectar to me......
Really? You can buy a pocket knife in any fishing or outdoors retailer here. Seems odd that you can't bring one with you in hold luggage.
Well I hope that doesn't put you off coming here.
Yes that is a beautiful drink
Enjoyed four pours tonight: Old Forester 100 (2 pours), Old Forester 1920 (one pour), Jack Daniel's Single Barrel Select (one pour). Squats tomorrow.
Travis,
Thank you for the page.
I decided a while back I wasn’t going to wear myself out chasing hard to find stuff.
Lately, I have been drinking a lot of Old Forester products, a variety of expressions. Buffalo Trace if it is in front of me, and Old Grandad 114.
I am always on the look out for good Bottled In Bonds, they are usually cheap, pretty tasty, and I know where they come from with out much effort.
Rip likes a variety, even in the same sitting. Unless I am with friends and we are sampling different things, I grab a bottle and stay with it until it’s time to open another. Usually a few days time.
