Thanks everyone. I had a great birthday - as mentioned, I smoked a Cohiba VI, was gifted a Diamond Crown Figuardo #6 by the cigar store owner at Maison Edwards, and had an amazing dinner (bbq'd goat - cabrito).
For the curious, this was my drinking of the day:
at dinner: 2 helpings of Pappy Van Winkle Family Reserve 20yr and a mint julep with dessert
and after dinner: half a bottle of 1997 Chateau Lamarzelle Cormey Grand Cru (1997)
I also bought a six pack of Great Lakes Brew's Ella Fitzgerald...
So, I was drunk, but not blindingly so...and it was all down with class. BTW, does anyone know where I could track down (online) a bottle of Pappy Van Winkle (anyone of the bourbons...)? PM me if you do, I'd really appreciate it.
Thanks again.
