Question

Has anyone tried these new offerings from the house of Johnnie Walker:

Ghost & Rare will set you back $400 while the others are a modest $185 or so.

I haven't tried the Ghost & Rare, but I have a regular bottle of JW Blue at home. It's good stuff. Got a bit of spice to it. Goes great with a full bodied cigar.

There is a local whiskey chasers group in my area on facebook. Pretty much most of the people post up good sales prices or rare bottles and where they saw them. Quite a few people also post when they are travelling and come across something we cannot get in Iowa and grab extra bottles for other members of the group.

Last time we had a get together open for the whole group we had over 500 bottles of GOOD whiskey at the event...

Couple of new entries at Binny's. Not sure about the coffee one, but the sherry cask sounds tasty. Still a bit pricey, though.

I don't know, I would probably pass on the coffee one and jump on the Aberfeldy myself!

A few Heineken sorry.

This for all the (EU) governments: Less climate idiocrazy, less bureaucracy.

And mr Jean Claude Juncker(EU boss). You're an alcoholic.

From Haarlem(ever heard of Harlem NY? this is Harlem's daddy) capital of Noord Holland, Netherlands





Think about it when you think abou moving to N Korea, Iran, Venezuela or even China, because you think 'Trump is not my president'.

Now that my 1er is back on the road and oil leak free, I thought that I would buy a bottle of something nice to celebrate. I think I made the right decision, how good is this?.........

I'd recc decanting it someplace nicer than the bathroom (or you have the strangest barback collection I've ever seen). And kudos for the Bell gear.

A buddy of mine sent a text earlier that a shop near us just got in Weller 12 at $200 a bottle. I passed but he said they have Taylor $45 a bottle so I had him grab one. I cant wait to crack it open tonight.

I have a half-gallon and a 750 of W12, never paid over retail and never would. I can’t believe someone would buy it for $200, but I’m sure it will sell.
