Just tried it
opened the bottle to celebrate, uh, I don't know. Trista's choice? Tom Watson's win on the Golf Channel classic show? my win this afternoon in the fifteen game?
any or all of the above will suffice.
Anyway, first I tried it neat. very nice, tight aroma and taste. warmed me up down to my toes. Nice caramelly (is that a word?) start with that warm whiskey glow finishing it.
I then (in the interest of science, of course) poured a couple more fingers and tried it, this time, with a splash of water.
Wow. same range of flavors, but completely opened up. where it once was a tight, nice whiskey, it now became a very full, taste with the different flavor elements extended out from start to finish.
final analysis 1) for the price ($44), I'd highly recommend it.
Final analysis 2) given the above review I just wrote, I really need to get away from the city.
BTW, just got a black perch (salt water) on a freshwater scud in the SF bay. I noticed that the FFers tend to also read the scotch threads (hmmm), so I thought I'd add this in here.
