I'm impressed. Very unique to what I'm used to. Orchard fruit to start, barrel char, then orchard fruit comes back around. Delicious.

Back at it in Austin, at my favorite whiskey bar.
There’s an open Old Forester Birthday Bourbon up there, but I may have to wait for tomorrow, when my favorite bartender is working.

Birthday Bourbon $45 a pour. If I’m doing that, I’m definitely waiting for my favorite heavy-handed bartender.

Grabbing this off my top shelf tonight. I’m using the wee glencairn to go with the wee bottle. The first release of MM CS was 2014 in 375mL only. This bottle is from 2015, also in 375mL only. Last time I tried this it blew away the 2020 MM CS I also had.

What’s the most you guys have spent on a pour somewhere and what was it of? Mine’s a pour of OFC 1993 for $250. Don’t see myself ever spending that much on another drink though haha

What is this and why the heck did I buy it? Because apparently my grocery store hides allocated bottles now, but if you talk to the manager, you can get in on some.
It’s too expensive now, but I do love a good horsey cork.
I remember when it was 50$ It’s soo good tho
Yeah it’s wild. It’s about 75-90 by me i have 1 left in the stash

Day 4: Amrut Peated Single Malt Whisky, 46%. The smell of campfire and soot hit me the minute I opened this one up. Further lingering gives apricot. Tasting brings a surprise front end of fruit, Oak while the finish leaves a delightful reminder of peat, smoke, and sweetness. Overall a very pleasant surprise. 9/10
Day 5: Torabhaig Allt Gleann The Legacy Series, 46%

Banging Advent Calendar!! What a great start…
Enjoy it man, I’ll keep following your comments.
Hope to see you soon, my friend.

I think the 46% is not a coincidence now that it is on every bottle in your sample so far...

I couldn’t help myself. And my fave bartender (pictured) has a heavy hand.
It's been an excellent start and hoping it continues as such. It's fun opening up a new panel each day and getting a new surprise. Plus this variety within a narrow scope of 'peaty' is pretty awesome.
I'll continue trying to post each day, but I head to Chicago to see some of the old gang for some poker and family time on Day 8 so my posts will be off a bit from there.
Miss you man and hoping our paths cross soon!
I was thinking the same thing today. Hoping to still get surprised.

Fired up the gas log for the first time this season so I figured it was appropriate to crack open a new rye for the upcoming winter season.

Wife won this via VA abc lottery. I still think the va abc lottery is rigged.
