Oh thank you. That's much better. Why don't you add "I got drunker from the Glenmorangie" to make it a really thorough report. :notallthere:

I've read many whisky reviews and with only a few have I experienced what the taster experienced with that particular whisky.

They remind me of cigar reviews where there are about 8 key words that tasters use. Plus, you have to add it a few made-up expressions. :)


"At first I noticed a malty sweetness. There was some vanilla with a raisins, followed by a floral bouquet that resembled a citrusy sweetness." LOL.

I will say the I read a review of Macallan Cask Strength that pointed to cinammon and raisins and it was spot on.

You ever read reviews by Michael Lam? Every single review includes "malty sweetness".

As in " I plunged deep between Xena's thighs, seeking her malty sweetness."? :fdance:

Enjoy your whiskey now?

Tonight at dinner I ordered a Lagavulin 16yr, another Islay single malt. I think I can get into the smoky island malts. I have to say it's pretty close the Laphroaig.

If nothing else, it's worth drinking the Islay whisky because of the cool namesl

Laphroaig -- "La Froyg"

Lagavulin -- "Lahga VU lin"

:jump:

I try to say this with my best Scottish accent. Sometimes I use my Pakistani accent.

Last Thursday I was at Disney World and didn't have a chance to get my whisky.

In addition to two more bottles of Balvenie Doublewood I picked up for some buddies, I got these tonight for the Thursday Night Purchase.

I sampled the Highland Park.....and WOW. That is one awesome whisky for a less that $40/bottle and my local superstore. Friggin awesome whisky, from the Ornkey Isles.

3/4 of that bottle is now gone. :D


Tonight I picked up a bottle of the last of the six "classic malts" from Scotland I have yet drink - Dalwhinnie.
