Ardbeg! Nice.
I’m finishing this off because I’ve had it for far too long. Picked it up in Ireland about a month ago when I was there for work. It almost tastes like scotch.

It is my favorite. I plowed through a bottle of 12 year, the when the local liquor store got a 17, I had to buy it.

Maybe the next time I get a bonus I’ll treat myself to the 17. I love the 12.

Wow, I’ve never heard of that one.
The ardbeg was obtained through a lottery, so it was a lucky grab.

Not bad. Not bad a’tall. It’s 1 pint 6 ounces, which makes it a Deuce Deuce!
And this knowledge takes me back and makes me giggle.

I’m at work.
A mate bought me a bottle of The Ardmore a couple of christmas’s ago. It’s the only whisky I’ve ever poured away.
The barman let me try a little of my present while my mate was there, I let the barman have some and I’m glad I was looking at the barman and not my mate because it was awful. I tried mixing it with whatever I had at home to make it drinkable but no success so I poured it down the sink.

We have two different ardmores, and they are wildly different. The ‘legacy’ is a huge improvement over the ‘standard’ from 3 years ago.

Look, I’m recovering. Even on my best (worst) days I couldn’t take that much without a trip to the Hospital.

The Single Barrel is the fastest Ive ever downed a bottle in a ‘normal’ way. It is just so....smooth....

I should also mention the Lagavulin in your pic is probably my favourite whiskey. One of my coworkers once gifted me a bottle - otherwise it’s quite pricey.

The ardbeg tastes like smoke and fish.

Well, not sweet like syrup but otherwise you can get those kinds of flavours. Some whiskys aren’t smoky at all, others taste like you’re drinking a campfire.

I should’ve bought some liquor. I drank a bunch of sake last night and figured I’d spare my liver tonight.
Lagavulin and the Balvenie are familiar, with the former being one of my favourites, but I don’t recall having ever tried the other four.
