Yeah the idea was to get a bottle every week and fill a cabinet so I would end up with a nice collection of scotch'.
The reality is that the cabinet is still empty, as the bottles are.

What'll be your hogmanay drink?

Drinking Highland Park 12 now while packing for Spain. Damn this is good stuff.

I was lucky enough to be studying at Edinburgh during both the Millennium and when the Parliament opened. Wow, what an atmosphere. I think that's part of the appeal.

Of course, my last name is Burns. Maybe I'm biased.

RE: Whiskey (in reply to gmburns)

and to revive a good thread: today is Burns Day in Scotland. I'm celebrating with a nice MacCallan Fine Oak, bought in duty free in Lisboa enroute to Sevilla. No haggis in Brasil, so I settled for feijoada (which is essentially the same thing, but tastes WAY better)

RE: Whiskey (in reply to El Kiko)

And to revive a thread part 2:

I was talking with a friend recently, and he said he puts river stones in his whiskey instead of ice. Neither one of us like water in our whiskey, but he prefers it cooler than warmer, so he finds smooth river stones, cleans them, freezes them, and puts them in his glass.

He says there's no change in taste, but I'm a bit skeptical because, as a stupid person would know, I think river stones do actually have a taste (even after the taste of the river is no longer present). Still, an interesting twist to having scotch on the rocks.
