Can't get it up here north of the border but, through a wine distributer I am able to order a case. Would like to hear from someone who knows their stuff and has tried it before I order.
1 of the above Buffalo Trace and 2 Glencairn Whiskey Glasses.
Nothing fancy like you.
Pick up some NEAT glasses or a Norlan. Makes a huge difference. Both put the 'sweet spot' right to your nose so you get the full aroma and essence of the bourbon. [Reply]

and for what its worth, i really like a good old tawny port. if you enjoy oak aging and its effects on spirits, an old port is about as good as it gets. [Reply]

:-) even so, if you have get a chance to try Midwinter's Night Dram from High West, give it a shot. soooooo freaking good. it is a blend of 6 and 16 year ryes finished in port casks. [Reply]

Can I ask how you like to drink this?
Wife likes these flavored whiskey for making drinks but the Crown Royal Apple is much better than the Beam. She likes to mix it with Cranberry juice for a Washington apple drink. I still prefer to do equal parts of Crown, cranberry juice and sour pucker for a Washington Apple, however. [Reply]

So, for pussy talk I'd just like to say that Crown Royal Vanilla is fucking life!!! It's too fucking good. [Reply]
After finnishing up a project back East the Super gave me a bottle of Hillrock Solera aged Bourbon whatever solera aged means. I got to checking it out and its about 90 bucks a bottle. Been kinda leery of trying as I might like to well. Any one have any experience with this. [Reply]
