[Anonymous No.15617906]

What you drinking senpai? I just mixed Springbank 10 with Glenfarclas 105 and Laphroaig Q.C. with Ardbeg 10. Hopefuly this can help me lift the anxiety.

Making a infinity bottle (willet pot still) for bottom swill left from scotches. So far I have Glenfarclas 105, Balvenie double wood, glenmorangie 18. This may be a terrible idea or a good one. Still have a lot of room for this abomination.

Still the basil Hayden, hasn't changed in the 5 minutes since you posted in the /tv/ thread...

I dunno bro... 80 proof? Does it even have flavor?

[Anonymous No.15618970]

>>15618958
Unlikely
Basil Hayden's is pretty bland for a $40 bottle

[Anonymous No.15618984]

>>15618958
Its pretty good stuff imo, I usually drink my good whiskey until I get a little drunk and then switch to cheap stuff once I stop tasting it as much

>>15618970
What would you recommend in the same price range

[Anonymous No.15618994]

>>15618970
So it seems, if you want beam you can get a good Knob Creek for cheaper, old grand dad 114 is even the same mashbill just with the high proof to flesh it out

I understand that barrel proofs are expensive and hard to find, but I don't think I'd ever get a bottle of something under 88 or 90, drinkable but ultimately forgettable

knob creek is a cheaper bottle that's also by Jim Beam, much more interesting flavor.
can't go wrong with pic related either imho

I like knob creek and actually finished off a bottle of four roses before getting the basil Haydens, I've been keeping an eye out for old grandad so hopefully it comes into the local place soon, thanks lads

I just poured the four roses small batch, but next time I would want four roses I would be stuck between the single barrel and the small batch select, just seems to be more my thing.

[Anonymous No.15619045]

>>15619029
I like the small batch, haven't tried the select yet
think I'll pick it up next time

>>15618714
I don't know why but that looks and sounds nice. Even more comfy in a snowy setting. How is the taste?

>>15617906
