A Tatton Baird 3-cord & some Siete Leguas Blanco Tequila for a night at home. Maybe a movie night.

Got this Wormser today. First one I've owned. It goes right well with a cold beer.
Ha!You need Mezcal with a Worm…ser.
Enjoying the Bunnahabhain again tonight. Heavy on dried fruit on the nose, particularly raisins. Same on the palate on the first sip. Nosing again gives a bit of spiciness along with the dried fruit and just maybe a faint maritime touch. Second sip and the dried fruit remains dominant. The spices are there along with the sherry influence, but I’m only finding the caramel I mentioned last time when I go looking for it, and not really finding the vanilla.You’ll have to give us a report as I don’t think the An Cladach Limited Edition Release aged in the Sherry casks is available in the US.
Personally I like the taste & aroma of the stone fruits over citrus fruits any day.Heavy on dried fruit…

Coming towards the end of the glass and I‘m actually getting the caramel first for just a second before the dried fruit takes over again.
That’s about the extent of my ability to do a review. Most importantly, I really like this whisky. I did try to pick up another bottle, but it seems it’s all gone. I did, however, find its brother, Cruach-Mhòna, so picked up a bottle.

"Bunnahabhain" looks like something from a Danny Kaye patter song...Enjoying the Bunnahabhain again tonight. Heavy on dried fruit on the nose, particularly raisins.

I just read Steve’s post @Steve1857 that he has Summer depression this yr. For some reason I’ve had anxiety for a couple of wks now, & especially high today over this world we live in. Today I find myself drinking $3.25 HH 23 oz Natty Light on tap just to save money not knowing what’s coming. Now that’s high anxiety!Continuing my National Beer Day celebration from yesterday with Founders All Day Haze and Cavanagh A tasty beer for sure. I also dig the Wagoneer on the can art.

Damn! You could have gotten by without any of us knowing and said it anyway. You are out of sorts.Natty Light
No pics were taken in the making of these posts. I feel like I should squirrel away 10# of dried beans somewhere. That’s about all I can say without violating forum rules.Damn! You could have gotten by without any of us knowing and said it anyway. You are out of sorts.
I continued my IPA haze this evening with a few Funky Buddha Hop Gun. High Anxiety …. I remember the Mel Brooks film.I just read Steve’s post @Steve1857 that he has Summer depression this yr.
