^^^^good posting man......tempted I am, but only just barely.

224 days sober.....

El dorado 12 - nice, but not as good as the 15 ... I've read Internet reviews saying the 12 is the gem of the line, but the 15 is in my opinion better in every way. don't get me wrong, the 12 is fantastic, liquid fruit cake, smooth, not as dry finish as the 15. But it's just the 15 is that much better ... Recommended, but go with the 15 every time.

Obtained: Hi Lo - all

A reassessment here ... I have the 12 and the 15 side by side ... the 15 is more refined, but the 12 is bolder, sweeter, has more bite, more Christmas cake and less leather ... maybe I need to let the bottle of 15 breathe some more ... but thus far I think I have to reverse my initial assessment ... 12 > 15 in this instance! ... But can't go wrong with either ...

Saw a 15 and 18 year old Glenfiddich in a wholesale place Brasso side yesterday. Going back for the 18 year old. Cost $463.00

yip 18yr old taste great.

old par and glen is only served

[biggy82]

my top 5 so far:

1. Laphroaig Single Malt (Triple Wood)



even tho its a 10 y.o., i like the sweet vs woody flavor that follows one another when drinking this.

2. Glenfidditch Solara



this was my first choice until last month when i visited England and tasted the Laphroaig. 15 y.o. that will blow 18 and 21 y.o.s out of the water

3. Glenlivet 15 year



started drinking this when travelling. strong yet subtle

4. Balvenie Double Wood



ah "whoa" kinda scotch. it just hits you with full flavor

5. Johnny Walker Blue



give Johnny his jacket, overpriced in Trini but still a contender nonetheless

liking the reviews!!!!!

Laphroaig Single Malt

hmmm biggy never heard of this one but i agree with your list .... jhonny just barely made it..

on a side note i tasted teachers special single malt once in scotland.. this was pleasant but i couldnt afford the $400euro price tag

[biggy82]

Laphroaig Single Malt

hmmm biggy never heard of this one but i agree with your list .... jhonny just barely made it..

google "Islay Single Malt Scotch" there are quite a few around; all named for the Islay islands that they are produced on. small distillery and great quality.

you wont get it here tho....may be too expensive and not worth the trouble to import

brought back a couple of bottles; Christmas peeps will get a taste

[MonsterPower]

way ahead of you there biggy ... made a few calls and presto .... 2 bottles on their way due to arrive early nov ..

btw what do you think of the tallisker 15 yo ? got a bottle and i think its smoother to the palete than the glen livet

Try it with this, really goes smooth. (btw i not really a drinker, so don't flame me)

havent tried that yet. what about Irish whiskeys like Bushmills (not the 10 y.o. eh ) and Lockes. both are pretty decent single malts

[MonsterPower]

got 2 bottles of bushmills .. one with my own personal name on it as well as a jameson irish whiskey specially labelled

havent opened them up yet..

[biggy82]

Jameson is a good brand as well
