Same here, Larry. Clynelish is one of my favorites also. Those 1995s are great bottles although there's certainly variations in barrels. I tend to like the ones with a bit less sherry influence more.

Christmas morning. I have the wood stove humming and an Oban in hand.
(This is, remarkably, almost the exact conversation my wife and I just had, minus the beer part.)

Jameson and Bailey’s in my coffee here. Cheers!
Not a whiskey aficionado, but this is pretty awesome! 114 proof!
A Christmas gift from my son!

This is the Basil Hayden that i like!
My wife read up on whiskey glasses and grabbed these for me!

interesting. My next set of bourbon glasses will be custom!
Apparently you raised him right!
(That is, unless he's two years old and you chose this for yourself -- in which case, good choice.)
He had taken note of several bottles I said like to try. This one wasn’t specifically on my list, but he recognized the name and read the description, and thought it would be up my alley. I’m looking forward to enjoying a glass.
Shared a quick, small pour of the Basil Hayden Dark Rye with my son and brother-in-law. Very interesting and pleasant. There’s a ton going on!
Bottle down. Perfect evening to kill this one, but sad it's gone as I don't feel like spending the $ to replace it.
Well, the 12-year isn't too shabby a replacement -- a little brighter, and a lot more affordable. Both are great whiskies...

My wife grabbed me a few bottles for Christmas. My first Blanton’s is now in my possession

When you refuse to give your family a Christmas wish list, you get alcohol. Boone county and new Riff are new locals... Boone county is especially smooth. New Riff has a delightful bite.
First encountered apple pie moonshine at the Benchmark in Nashville...current favorite shot.

Had the crew over last night for a little game and pulled a bottle out of the stash.
Good stuff, really enjoyed it. Finished in sherry and cognac casks. Woke up this morning, looks like my buddies polished it off lol.

Awwwwwww!I didn't get any bourbons for Christmas this year
I'm still holding that bottle for you for the next time we meet up.

The jeffersons ocean is delicious. Most of them are just okay but voyage 17 is the best of the lot. Lots of brine on the nose. I’m halfway through my bottle already
@detroitdad
I got this glass and coaster as a late Christmas present from some friends that are over for New Years. Hard to see the glass, but it’s Ron.
Don’t worry, this is Crown I’m drinking. I’d never put this much ice in good stuff.
Happy New Year!

The concept just seems so gimmicky so I’ve avoided buying it, but maybe I’ll have to give it a shot.
Did you get it at the duty free? My dad is going to Venice next week... if it’s easy to get I’ll have him grab some!

It wasn’t there when I went and that was a primary objective of mine.

I thought the same but it really does take on the characteristics of being on the sea. I’ve been looking for the voyage 17 cask strength. Can’t seem to find it
Cracking open the Glenlivet for the next game...
