So Mrs. Selkirk and I just killed off the bottle of Dalwhinnie :) :) :) Very tasty stuff! Any suggestions for the next Whiskey? Contemplating the Black Bush Archie mentioned, but very open to suggestions :wave:

 

I'm enjoying the Balvenie 12 y.o. Double Wood right now. I think it is on sale... and so is Black Bush, Red Breast, and Black Bush single malt. I may be picking up a bottle of the latter to try. :tup:

Glenfiddich is on sale now, at least here on the east side. :)

Try the mini first (I don't think Glenfiddich is very good - YMMV)

Kilbeggan - if you can get your hands on it over here. Or for something interesting - Connemarra (peat-smoked single malt). Both made by Cooley - the only Irish-owned independent whiskey distillery.

 

I'm not a whiskey drinker but the spouse, friends, and I went thru a bottle of Kilbeggan pretty quick after a visit with the relatives on the Isle.

Scotch and Irish Whisky tastes like I'd imagine licking a combo of road tar and a Scotsmans balls would be. Except worse. That stuff sucks. I've tried a lot of different kinds and it's all bad.

 

Bourbon, the stuff made in the US, now thats nectar......now how did this thread get her from that first post?

I dunno, I think of the many varieties of whiskey, Irish is the easiest to like/most accessible. Well, maybe Canadian whiskey is as well.

 

Bourbon, scotch, and rye are all very different and much more of an "acquired taste".

Bourbon makes me gag! I would agree with your comments (Irish is easiest to drink, Scotch is an acquired taste).

 

There are a few ways to really bring out the good flavor of scotch - you can drink it on the rocks or even slightly diluted with water, depending on the type, and it actually will enhance the flavor. I actually attended a Johnny Walker "seminar" at the Playboy Mansion (no joke) on Scotch - origins, ways to drink it, blends, etc. Made me a convert...now I think there is nothing like a nice Scotch (or Scotsman :)).

I could have used some of this during the weekend.

Here is what I did for fun instead:

Shoveled snow off roof and fixed flue.

Burrowed in to my woodpile under crushed shed and tested out new flue.

 

Good times.

 

Yep, you deserve a little whiskey for that project. Wow - nice snow, tho'!
