Not real sure at the moment. Higher proof for sure. I seent it on the internet that it was good so I wanted to get some to try.

I bought out St Martin of Gold while I was there. It's terrific stuff.

I always passed it for its higher proof brother but Yall talked me into picking one up.

Starting to see some Old Charter back on the shelves in Alex, for any of you VP guys that need your fix.

Last time I went was probably 3 months ago, but they always seem to have some good stuff. I had Cured Oak, Saz 18, and JPS 18.
Had a buddy tell me that as of a month ago, they still had JPS 18.

Do they still have tornado bottles?

What's the deal with gold? Aged longer?
I'm thinking Blanton's Gold and Rockhill Farms are about the same.

I was a huge fan of the gold when I first tried it. But now I think the SFTB is much better.

Cure has 3 bottles of tornado they held back. They told me they are cracking one soon...that was in July.

Aahhh... Finally able to drink some proper whiskey after having to choke down bourbon for the past week.
Talisker (8.5): As with the Talisker 18, this is really good. Has the oakyness of the highland scotches with some of the peatyness of the Islay scotches without tasting like drinking moss-water.
Lagavulin (7): It is really good for what it is. Very intense peaty flavor. Seriously complex. An excellent scotch. With that said, I don't like much but I am trying.
Laphroaig: (3): I pretty much knew when I put it in the game that it wouldn't hold up against the others. Limited flavor intensity and complexity. Harsh finish. It belongs in more of the 12/15 yo scotch category. It would probably compete pretty well there.

Oh come on man. Everyone knows scotch is the Beta whiskey. If it weren't, why does it always get bourbons sloppy seconds. Bourbon rolls through that new charred oak like a pimp baw!

You know. You are probably right. They have only been making scotch since the 15th century. I am sure they are still trying to figure out how its done.
Posted on 9/23/15 at 10:14 am to SnglMaltScotch
Exactly! I'm glad you agree. I thought you might fight me on this.

Them there fighting words! I respect scotch and all that it represents. Without the Scotch and the Irish people, there probably wouldn't be bourbon or at least our bourbon we know today. But conversely, our used American Oak barrels turn your scotches into great scotches. Both can be very tasty and both can be very bad.
I don't think you can really make the argument that one is better than the other because everyone enjoys things differently. You can't tell me what my taste buds say and vice versa. Both are excellent choices for drinking and both depend on each other to exist.

I liver likes both? Are you already drunk. If so, mad props.

I was there a month ago. No Tornado that I saw. I consumed my share of VW rye though.
