paulF Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 Bacardi Oakheart!Lacks the complexity and finish of sipping rums but a splash of coke(the way its meant to be had..) fixes that ! And it's not bad at all when neat either! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winelover Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 Bought two of these... one for a gift and one for myself Thinking of picking up this boxed set too, especially as good value. Never tried kilchoman, do you rate it? Also are the glencairns made from their usual crystal? Don't want glass! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lotusguy Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 Thinking of picking up this boxed set too, especially as good value. Never tried kilchoman, do you rate it? Also are the glencairns made from their usual crystal? Don't want glass! We opened up the gift the day before yesterday and it is a great, medium-peated dram. Hard to believe it's only 4 & 5 years old . I can't wait to try a 10YO once they release it. The Glencairns are the real crystal deal as well. Excellent value (I paid $54+tax for the set at KL Wines). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reevzy Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 Picked up a bottle of Camus Extra Elegance in duty free a while back. It's got so much going for it I almost feel like I'm not good enough for it. And while I was in Dan's, I found hiding amongst the Cognac bottles...... a bottle of beer. Crown Ambassador. Been keeping an eye out for this for ages and I took the opportunity to ****** one up and store it away for a special occasion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sengjc Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 Interesting let me know how they are Will be a whole before these get opened, they are for the collection. Interesting let me know how they are Will be a while before these get opened, these are earmarked for the collection. Bought two of these... one for a gift and one for myself... I have heard only good things about Kilchoman although I have never had any. I am on waitlist for a Society bottling of cask strength Kilchoman so I am hopeful and excited.

garbandz Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 New items........... DeLord armagnac XO Marie Duffau armagnac XO Montesquiou armagnac VSOP The Kilchoman I tried was a winner for a very young single malt.Brusque,peaty,warm and malty with aromas of brine and salt.If they would age their whisky in well used bourbon casks, I think it would shine among young single malts. I am not a fan of the wide spectrum of finishes employed these days,too many casks of various sourcing trying to be the "next great thing",I wish the industry would return to its roots..............

Nice haul. I enjoy armagnacs from time to time but not had any of those. Agree your point re finishes. I try to stay clear too because I think faitly ordinary spirit is often "finished" to paper over the cracks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
