Thanks. Good to know about delivery. I've seen the site before and it's 20% higher that what I normally pay per bottle. I have a monster liquor store nearby that carries ton of selection so I haven't gone the online route.....yet. :D

Thursday night whiskey purchase time again. :D :D :D

It's been a while since I've been in town on a Thursday night so I had to get a few extra bottles.

Basil Haydens was always a favorite of mine. Bakers is great stuff, but not as smooth as Basil's.

Re: In pursuit of the best WHISKEY......
 

Agreed. Basil Haydens is the smoothest, lightest bourbon I've had yet. I love it.

I cracked open the bottle of Baker's last night. It's OK, but nothing special to me. It sort of has the Wild Turkey taste that I'm not all that fond of.

I recently got this bottle. It's an amazing bottle. CO you should definitely try this.

Re: In pursuit of the best WHISKEY......
 

I've polished off bottles of the regular (10 or 12?) year, and the Portwood finish. But I haven't seen that one.

What's the specs on it? How much aging? Price?

Found it on Whisky Exchange. Sounds good.



Producer's Tasting Notes


Aroma: Tempted by the aromas wafting through the door of a French patisserie, you step inside to discover a tangy tarte au citron with its crisp pastry case and smooth lemony cream topping. Next to it is with its fluffy sponginess and milky vanilla aroma is a Genoise cake decorate with crystallised lime and orange peel. You can smell plump juicy sultanas, dates, warming ginger, coconut and nutmeg. In the background, gingerbread is baking in a wood-burning oven
Slip some water into the whisky to release the frothiness of lemon meringue pie and the rich aroma of baking fruitcake and warm gingerbread drizzled with cr?me anglaise

Taste: The smooth, melting creaminess of lemon tart leaves the mouth full of citrus tang that gives way to cr?me caramel and zesty lime. This is replaced by warming ginger coupled with the mellow nutty flavours of nutmeg and toasted almonds that add warmth and chewiness that melts into oozing lemon meringue and melting honeycomb

Finish: Languid and sweet with lemon zest, vanilla cream and delicate hints of ginger and nutmeg

You'll be able to buy the same whiskey George Washington made and sold.

CP and I were at Mount Vernon last year during the $113 million renovation. What a beautiful place. If anyone is traveling nearby, you should stop in and check the place out.
