What Did You Drink Last Night?

[Hat Dandy]

I managed to down a dram of Glenfiddich 15 year scotch.

Ok, how was it? These kind of things strike me as gimmickry.

Good choice. Interestingly, I find the 15 year old better than the 18 year old.

Oh my! I’ve never seen the bacon soda. But I do think bacon is one of God’s gift to mankind. Lol! Is it good?
Last night I drank green tea. I think its very refreshing and healthful and has a nice taste. J

Bacon tastes better than green tea.

Good. Mixed it with a shot of Southern Comfort & grapefruit juice...

 

[Dennis Young]

Lol Yes. Green tea is an acquired taste.
Speaking of acquired tastes, I never was able to enjoy scotch. And I tried to teach myself to like wine, but couldn’t. I just don’t care for it. But I do like beer. And I LOVE rum. Rum daiquiris, Pina Coladas, etc remind me of when I was in the Navy, sitting in a little cabana in St Thomas listening to the Island music.

What kind of scotch did you try? There is a scotch for all tastes. I bet you would like a Lowland scotch if you like rum.

Bacher lager. It says German style, but it's from Belgium. Go figure. Never heard of it, but it was on sale, and it tastes surprisingly good.

 

[O'Sully]

Ardbeg's Airigh Nam Beist. Its like drinking smoke.

I didn’t know that. Maybe I’ll give it a try. J Any brands you’d recommend?

Managed to down a dram of Alberta Premium 30 Year rye whisky.

Try one that is fairly reasonable to start off like:

If you like that go to Achentoshan, Glenkinchie or Littlemill

I had a Balvenie Double Wood last night.

 

[Dennis Young]

I’ll try it. This will be new to me as I really have never had much scotch.

Start there and move up the smoky stuff slowly.

That is a strong one. I like their Clontarf better---especially the single malt.
