That's great to hear, Freddie. Sort of took a chance with it from reading the bottle.

Dang thanks for the education bro! Anyways I enjoy JD and yep the EC I enjoy is the 12 year version. I hadn't seen an 18 year in my store at Five Points in Athens, Ga. It must be rare as this store has a huge selection of everything. College town.

Black bush is great for a relatively inexpensive whiskey.

In Athens airport they didn't have Crown, for a similar price, figured it was worth a shot.

No prob OG, all bourbon is whiskey but not all whiskey be bourbon
Yeah when we were on the bourbon trail 2yrs ago and at Heaven Hill distillery the lady was talking about it and I looked at my wife and said think I got a bottle of that. After the tasting the lady asked me about it and said I could easily sell it for way more than I paid for it. I said I'd pass and keep it.
I have quite the collection $30 bottles or so of whiskey 25 or there abouts is bourbon, Irish, Japanese, Canadian, wheat, rye, and Tennessee. Everything from smooth and light to quite peppery and robust.

After the Hawks wrapped up #3 in the last 6 years, my buddy popped to bottles one Macallan 18, and one Oban 14. I have never really enjoyed Scotch being pretty big into Bourbon at one point before giving up the fire water completely about 7 years ago. I guess the Scotch I had tried before was always of the peaty variety and I am not a fan of that style. Anyway the Macallan was excellent coming from a Bourbon fan. The Oban was tasty but quite a bit more wood and not as smooth.

So, Bushmills Black is nice. Not the best I've had, but for the price, very nice. Would buy again to change it up down the road.

You should treat yourself to some 21 some time.
Best whiskey of any type IMO.

I'll have to keep that in mine once this is gone. Variations of Bushmills is hard to find here. By the sounds I'll have to try and track it down though.

I love scotch, bourbon, and Irish of course.
I love all things whiskey and the smooth mellowness of the 21 is amazing to me.
Expensive though

Nahhh. Mostly because that means if you have a problem, I have a problem and I don't have one

Nope just enjoying what you enjoy, if you start selling off tools to buy them. Then you have a problem

Bought a bottle of Elijah Craig 12 today. Asked the lady if they had any flasks and she gave me one free from one of those gift packs.

My father in law asked for a good bottle of single malt scotch for his retirement. I wanted something I knew he had never tried before. I did some searching and narrowed it down to a few selections being that i know he likes that strong peaty taste.

Ardbeg uigeadail
Laphroaig quarter cask
I ended up with something completely different and am glad I did! He loved it and said it was one of the best he has ever had. It had a nice smoky taste and was very smooth. It also not as expensive as the others at only $60. Would definitely buy again.

Just got back from a trip to Dublin. Had a fantastic time. While there I went to the Whiskey Museum and to Jameson's Distillery. Brought back 3 fabulous Irish Whiskies. Yellow Spot, Teeling, & Knappogue Castle 14. Yellow Spot is unbelievable. I also was on a quest to find the best Irish Coffee. Must of had 2 to 3 a day. Best one I had was at The Pier Head Bar and Restaurant in Kinvarra, County Galway.

Jealous. I can't even find a bottle near me. If you don't like, let me know and I'll send a courier for it.
