Black Label Taketsuru Pure Malt Whisky
I bought this for the winter months and finished the last of it over the weekend. This is a blended malt named in honour of Masataka Taketsuru, the father of Japanese Whisky. He was the first Japanese who mastered Whisky making in Scotland and brought this expertise back to Japan. It was an incredibly pure and rich Whisky with a certain smokiness. I don’t drink enough Whisky to know the difference but this could easily have been Scotch to my palate. 43% ABV. — 4 years ago
Orphan Barrel Whiskey Distilling Co.
Old Blowhard Kentucky Bourbon Whiskey Aged 26 Years
Apparently this is $1000+ per bottle. It was very nice - love the nose- but sounds like marketing to me. 26 years old. — 2 years ago

Kentucky Springs Distilling Company
Basil Hayden's Dark Rye Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey

It's Blanton's, proofed up to 103. Being a single barrel, Blanton's is consistently good but not consistently great. This bottle is well above average. It smells and tastes like something from the Van Winkle bourbon lineup. Dark cherry, apricot, leather, cigar box. Much more pleasing than last years bottle. I thought the Gold used to be in a skinnier 700ml bottle, but this is 750ml. Maybe I'm losing it 🤔
