I'm a brand new member here and after using your Scotch reviews for a year or so, I thought I'd finally take some time to thank you for the time, labor, and dollars you have saved me. Of course our tastes probably differ but as sort of a first filter your reviews are the best I've found online. Anyway, thanks again.

Hey Eric, welcome aboard. Why don't you head on over to the Introduce Yourself Here forum and tell us a little about yourself.

Thank you for the kind words. I hope to see your input on some of the review threads in the future.

Have you ever had the chance to try Parker's 27 YO bourbon? I have never heard of it before, but came upon it while searching through reviews on a whisky/whiskey site. It's a pretty expensive drink ($150 and up).

I don't own it but have tried it. It is seriously good.

The 27yr is a great bourbon. It's the second release in the series. The third release, Golden Anniversary, was named "American Whiskey of the Year".

Thanks Seth. Ya, I think that is where I first read about it.

Last night had a nice healthy dram of Laphroaig 10yr Cask Strength.

I gotta say, this stuff is good. It is fast becoming one of my favorites. It took me a little while but, the Islay Malts have really gotten a hold of me. The Laphroaig and Lagavulin 16yo are right at the top of my list.

Just wanted to post a thank you AVB. I am a bourbon guy and had a great time reading through your reviews of some of my favorites (and not so favorites). And your scotch reviews make me want to go out and buy a bottle (not usually a scotch drinker). It's nice to see reviews that appreciate both the finest and more humble offerings for what they are - the sign of a true whiskey lover. Keep up the good work!

I posted a phonetic guide quite some time ago. I should see if there are any real differences between mine and this one.

Hey AVB, I was wondering if you have had the opportunity to try the Laphroaig Càirdeas-Ileach Edition coming out this year. It is supposed to be available in America. I think it is only an 8 year old single malt, but I was still curious what you impression was of this particular Scotch. Thanks

[AVB]

I haven't seen it in my part of the US yet. It is in NJ but not MD,DE,PA or VA that I know of.
