Ryemageddon...an interesting rye whiskey made with both regular and chocolate rye.  It actually has a chocolate note to it. 

Very nice review. I just finished a bottle of the Heavily Peated Cask Strength version from Signatory recently. A little more amber color and definitely a powerful dram. Other than that, the description seems right on. Not my favorite of the Islays, but not a bad change-up.

Bruichladdich is one of my two or three favorites lines of scotch. I currently have (and have tried) the Links "Turnberry", the Full Strength, the Infinity Cask, the Barolo Finished (part of the Italian collection), and the new Port Charlotte PC6 (not really a Laddie, but made by them). I have...

Got to go with the Nadurra! :thumbs:

I, too, had the privilege of sampling a "wee-dram" of this wonderful nectar. I am sure that my sense did not pick up the true subtleties of this scotch, but here are my thoughts none-the-less. The nose was wonderful, with fruit and honey predominant. The fruit was mostly slightly tart apple...

Sorry, lost internet last night and this morning. Finally have it back this evening. Of course, I did leave the DC at work so cannot post it. It went out at 10:17 am, Monday, February 25th. It ain't going far, so I would expect it tomorrow if it didn't get there today. Shoot me an email...

The pass has arrived. I have not had a chance to open it as of yet. I will try to do so later tonight or tomorrow and get it back on the road no later than Saturday. I'll post once I take a look. :thumbs:

Unfortunately I will be on my way back from Texas. Going down there for work and staying over a few days to visit my Dad.

What do you mean there is not a schedule? Send that darned pass already. :laugh: I am ready and waiting in Johnstown.

Now that's a likely story. I'll believe it when I see it. :p I'll be there. See you at the Ropewalk around 1.

Thank you very much for the invite, Ray. We might have to do an in-person hand-off and smoke a cigar together at the end of this thing. :thumbs:

I'm in. I have to be in Baltimore the following Monday anyway, so I'll just call it a long weekend.

The pass arrived today. I have been putting a floor down in my smoking room today, so have not even opened it. I'll take a look over the long weekend and post soon as to puts and takes.
