So, what are your recent acquisitions?

[Ken Gargett]

just picked up 6 bottles of 2000 clos des goisses for A$700 (my chrissy present to myself). i really shouldn't but normal price here would be well over A$2000 for the 6.

and don't ask, i understand that there are all gone. you might find some 01 or 03 at similar prices (the 03 will be a bit more) but they are both far inferior wines to the 00.

Picked up a couple of Ardbeg gift sets today (oh, and a Nectar D'or) and the store manager gave me a cool tin Ardbeg sign. I'll hang it up in my basement and see how long the wife lets it stay.

Nice, how does it differ from RZ 23?

Supposed to be a dark rum with smokey, woody and spicy notes. Aged in double charred American oak casks. Not as sweet as the 23.

Definitely a dessert whisky. I have a sweet tooth and I love whisky, and I love citrus. So this ticked a bunch of boxes.

I am very fond of it!

Just watched the Netflix documentary "Sour Grapes" about the wine con man Rudy Kurniawan.  Interesting stuff.

Rare older Whisky's quite often drop a cork...

scotch and rye. Has anyone tried the 8 year?

The 8 is very good. Very similar to the 16, with a shorter finish and bolder initial heat and flavours.

I thought it was just okay. Not bad but I prefer the 16 yr for about the same.

Nectar D'Or.  Haven't had a bottle of this in a while.  I've had a few creamy cigars recently that I thought it would pair nicely with.
