Yeah man. I attended a Johnnie Walker tasting once where they gave us a Johnnie Walker Red and ginger ale which was pretty good, so I thought I'd give this a try to see how it went. It wasn't horrible.

Damn, the Walmart near my house never has scotch tastings. :laugh:

This tasting was actually for all of the Johnnie Walker Blends. Black, Gold and Blue were served neat, with the recommendation that Gold be served right out of the freezer. Red was served mixed which worked for me.

I never think of scotch as something to order in a mixed drink. I did try red label one time. Once was enough.

I knew a guy from Scotland who drank scotch with whole milk...

Laphroaig 18 and Monte Edmundo Tubo
(Thanks Sam!)

Stepped up to Caol Ila 25. Still with the Edmundo.....:whistling:

 

[AVB]

I'll see you Caol Ila 25 and raise you a Talisker 25.

I haven't had the Caol Ila 25 distillery version but I did have Signatory one once. Was it much better then the 18?

 

[khari]

Had a glass of Rittenhouse BIB and Buffalo Trace.

I would have to say no, not really. Then again I felt the same way about Talisker.

Other than Bowmore 25 most of the 25 year olds I have sampled aren't that much better than the 18 year old version. I have a full bottle of Bowmore 25 and I'm thinking about getting another one.

Last night had some Jefferson's Presidential Select 17yo. Damn good bourbon.... :thumbs:

 

[sigar_zealot]

Friday night my son and I drank the better part of a bottle of Macallan 25 Sherry. I still like this one better than the 30 year old.

 

[Aussie Shaun]

Saturday night I will be drinking an old favorite ( Aberlour ) and will be trying Loch Lamond.

 

[sigar_zealot]

Black Bottle 10 with a Monte #2 from 08.

Damn I'm purdy!
