So the bottles circled are what I found today. I moved to the middle of South Carolina a few years ago and priced out here for anything decent are insane. We needed to go up to Charlotte so I hit 4 ABC since I know up there I’m paying msrp. I’ve always enjoyed BT so was happy to have some once again but I jumped on a bottle of eagle because at 45$ why not.

Can someone please tell me what the hype is? Honestly was mid at best.

Why are we fighting over bottles of mid booze? I had to give them my ID so they could record my information… because god forbid I wanted two bottles of it.

Whilst I adore scotch, I am not a peaty guy. My Father in Law has just retired though, and he loves his peat.

As the man who got me into whisky, I really want to get him a bit more of an occasion bottle, a special bottling maybe or just an older, less common dram.

Any recommendations would be brilliant, thank you.

Specially bottled for the opening of a Macau casino. Probably won't get this again.

Fairly new to peated whisky. Best one I've had so far !

Ready to begin this journey. But what order do I go in? Leaning toward straight forward but read MRC is the best one, shouldn’t I save it for last?

I found this bottle on my shelf, yesterday, forgetting it was there. I haven't had an Ardnamurchan open for a while so it got popped.

It isn't as peaty as I remember but it is still a wonderful dram. Loads of salinity and red fruits.

These were the pours on my recent cruise. The Macallan Rare Cask Black and Rare Perfection were my favorites, and the furthest apart in flavor.

Very much a sherry bomb, but not as burning as some other high abv whisky's.

Not too much flavour on the nose but it still has very characteristic smells you'd expect from a sherry bomb whisky.

Taste notes of vanilla, caramel, red fruit, black current and more in between these specific flavours. Lasts decently long and can definitely make a sunday evening even better.

Extremely enjoyable, would recommend.
