dragon dildos

>>4874163
Stay tuned to find out!

God, I fucking hate packaging shit.

I know it serves a purpose, but it gets everywhere.

>>4874160
Anthrax

It seems that the package contains at least 3 items....

>>4874177
One could only hope....

It turns out that one of the items is a single malt scotch. But what could the 2 other items be?

>>4874179
Dragon Dildos?

AN ORGANIC OLIVE OIL AND A RIEDEL TIN

THE EXCITEMENT CANNOT BE CONTAINED

>>4874181
Where can I both purchase scotch and dildos?

The contents of the Riedel Tin, turns out to be a Sommeliers Series Cognac XO glass.

>>4874183
Amazon?

Never had that scotch before. Post up later how it is.

I did find a store near here with 18 year old Laphroaig though! I'm gonna pick up a bottle eventually but looking for some celebratory reason vice just buying it and drinking a glass every day.

>>4874192
Not amazon. I never purchase alcohol from Amazon.

I already have a bottle of Laphroaig 18. It's fucking great. Go for it!

Out of focus pic is out of focus.

Round 2!

Just got another package! This one was delivered by SDN.

What on earth could it be?

Goddammit.

There is no way to remove this box with getting styrofoam everywhere.

There we go.

I'm on the edge of my seat.

I can hear sloshing. I suspect that these containers are holding liquid.

What do you know!

A Distillers Edition Talisker from 1991!

I saved the best for last.

The one that none of you have been waiting for!

>>4874338
Very nice!

inb4 OP makes mixed drinks with it

A bottle of 1979 Rare Malts Edition St. Magdalene.

One of the finest whiskies ever bottled. I can barely keep my composure.

>>4874349
Thank you very much.

>>4874350
I would only ever add water to any of these.

Neat! Old ass alcohol is interesting.
How much did you spend? If you don't mind sharing.

>>4874361
I bought both of the bottles from Round 2 at an auction.

I'd rather not discuss the price of the St Magdalene, but the Talisker cost me about £70.

The Dalwhinnie was purchased at a Danish whisky boutique.

Pic is about half of my collection.

That's all folks!

Last pic is photo of my beer collection back in August as well as a few of my liquor bottles.

Looks good, OP. Do you drink the more expensive bottles - like the ones from dead distilleries? Or do you hoard them hoping to someday cash in on them (lol).

>>4874376
>Ardbeg Alligator
I'm saddened this was just a limited edition. I loved it.

>>4874412
I drink some of them, but they are mostly just for prestige.

I do not think I will sell them, unless they greatly increase in value, but that will be many years in the future.

The rarest/most expensive bottle I got are:
30 Year Old Port Ellen from 1982
20 Year Old Rare Malts Selection Coal Ila from 1975 (Opened)
30 Year Old Balvenie
4 bottles of Pappy Van Winkle 20 (1 opened)
The Dalmore Cromartie (Opened)
Ardbeg Supernova
Ardbeg Galileo
Ardbeg Alligator x2 (1 opened)
Ardbeg Airigh Nam Beist (Opened)
Mackmyra Preludium 01

And of course, the St. Magdalene.

>>4874415
I got 2 bottles for only 300 dollars. The store owner had no idea what he was selling. And yes, Alligator is an amazing Ardbeg.

>>4874160
OP, you clearly have an unhealthy interest in alcohol, I'd have that looked at. Just saying.

Secondly, this ain't your blog m8.

>>4874430
He doesn't even drink them. You and OP are retard equals.

>>4874430
I'm sorry to disturb your visit to /ck/. I'll be sure to make ramen and steak threads like everybody else from now on.

Also, how does having many unopened bottles make me an alcoholic?

>>4874420
>I got 2 bottles for only 300 dollars. The store owner had no idea what he was selling.
Hmm... I bought it for 70 something EUR. That guy didn't even have a clue, then. And well, neither do I, apparently. Didn't know they were that expensive.

Now I feel even worse for having finished the bottle.

>>4874658
70 Euro!?

Where was this?

>>4874430
Unboxings have been a part of 4chan for a very long time.

>>4874454
>I'm sorry to disturb your visit to /ck/. I'll be sure to make ramen and steak threads like everybody else from now on.
Totally not what I was saying — this type of post is much more suited to a blog, as you well know because this isn't the first time someone has said this to you.

Anyone this self-congratulatory and conceited is perfectly suited to blogging.

>Also, how does having many unopened bottles make me an alcoholic?
I said "an unhealthy interest in alcohol". You can infer anything you like from this.


>>4874843
And were they always done in such a douchy way?

>>4874160

IT'S PACKING MATERIAL!

Nice collections OP.

>>4875407
Thank you very much.

>>4875040
Why is my semi-self-deprecating unboxing thread considered douchey? I just present my purchases.

Do I also have an unhealthy interest in cooking because I have a shitton of cookware?

Do I have an unhealthy interest in computers because I own 6 different ones?

>>4875253
We have a winner. Your prize: To go an cook yourself a fine Italian meal.

>>4874670
Belgium, this shop: http://www.artivin.be/

I went there to get a regular Ardbeg 10, he mentioned that they had Alligator, some sort of special edition which I'd never heard of, and I bought it. Best impulse buy ever.

>>4876570
>6 computers

yes. What is your favorite meal? I feel like I know you better from this thread OP.

I used to try to collect alcohol then my alcoholism took over now I just "stock up"

I can sense OPs neck beard is growing thick, robust and strong.

>>4876723
My favorite meal currently is a pasta dish with bacon, tomatoes and onions.

Not very gastronomically exiting, but it is very comforting.

It is sort of like Marcos Mothers Pasta.

>>4876737

Clean shaven, buddy.

>>4874430

4chan is great because the community classically will call people out on any BS. But posts like this just hurt us all. It's /ck/ and a guy shares a cool unboxing along with a collection of booze that might even serve as a recommendation list. He's blameless!

What model thinkpad is that in the headphone/glass picture?
Do I spy with my little eye a /g/entooman?

>>4876757
Shhhh. I'm undercover.

After some googling, I found the St. Magdalene is very hard to come by, and the one price I found was around 550 euros.

This thread makes me feel bad I don't really like whiskey. How can I learn to appreciate it? Got two bottles of Glenfiddich 12 here.

>>4876765
Glenfiddich 12 is not really a good starters whisky. It's very muddled and not very refined. IN MY OPINION.

Some slightly more expensive stuff like Highland Park 12 or anything from Old Pulteney is fantastic. Check out Ralfystuff on youtube. He has some great beginner guides to whisky.

But don't force yourself into it. If you don't like whisky, then too bad.

And yes, St. Magdalene is extremely fucking rare. That's why I was so happy to get the winning bid at the auction.

>>4876773
Thanks anons. Ralfy is really convincing. Too bad his video's lack any tempo.

>>4876813
Yeah, his videos do often drag on, but he really drops a lot of good info.

>>4876818
He does. My dad always told mixing whiskey with water is murdering good whiskey, and I should never ever add more than a drop. Took this 'drop' very literal. Also, I was always drinking from straight glasses.

Gonna pour myself a glass tonight, I think.

>>4876825
Funnily enough, the St Magdalene says to add 2 parts water to 1 part scotch. Presumably, this is because it is cask strength, but 2 to 1 is way too much.

Depending on the scotch, I usually add about 1-3 teaspoons.

Also, I cannot recommend a glencairn glass or a Riedel Cognac glass enough. Makes a world of difference.

>>4876570
>Why is my semi-self-deprecating unboxing thread considered douchey? I just present my purchases.
I'd give you a clue but if you really need one it would be lost of you.

I notice you didn't challenge the self-congratulatory and conceited, and for that you get +1.

>>4877118
The bitterness is flowing through my screen and into my eyes.

It burns.

>>4877118
Wow.

Was your dad an alcoholic? Did he beat you with empty whisky bottles?

>>4874197
nice headphones dude

mad jelly

>>4877146
Thanks.

>>4874172
is that soy meat?

>>4877151
What the hell is soy meat? Is it like tofu?

I hate that shit. It would serve better for packing material than consumption.

>>4874197
Those are some nice headphones. You have an amp for them? I've been debating on investing in one.

>>4877148
>>4877146
I'm more of a HD800/beer man myself... p:
/ck/ and /g/ have always been the best combo.

>>4877172
I have a Schiit Lyr with Amperex Golden Globe tubes from the 50's.

It plays better than amps twice the price.

>>4877191
My 3 main boards are /ck/, /g/ and /tv/.

/tv/ fucking sucks, but I can't stop.
