Witherweaver is a smart person.
I've been known to drink White Russians only because of my love of The Big Lebowski. I drink Sarsaparilla for the same reason.

Posting begets posting.
Donald X made me a design snob.
I just tried some of the last of a bottle of Nikka 21. It's pretty spectacular if you ever get the opportunity/have someone nice enough to buy you a glass.

I've tasted hibiki 12 once and didn't think much of it. If you've had that, how does this compare?

I can't speak to this much as I've never had Hibiki 12, but the Nikka 21 is reputed to be much better? The Nikka I can only say was one of the best whiskies I've had, but I'm not a super experienced whisky drinker.
What are good not-smokey scotches? Like far away from smokey.
Quote from: Witherweaver on August 04, 2015, 04:06:35 pmWhat are good not-smokey scotches? Like far away from smokey.how much are you willing to spend? Under $100 (and there's no real reason to spend more), I would recommend balvenie 14 Caribbean cask. Under $50 and I'd probably say glengoyne 12. Don't get an older glengoyne, they don't really get better with age. But I would really recommend you give smoky scotch another try. Not necessarily something REALLY smokey like ardbeg or laphroaig, but something a little smokey like maybe lagavulin or johnny walker double black.

Smoked meats, cheeses, etc. bother me. It feels like my throat and esophagus close up.
