Making dinner for the family and enjoying a Bacardi 151 over ice. So smooth going down but hits like a sledge hammer....

That's one heck of an aperitif MB.
I'd be making some interesting dishes after a couple of those 151's
Stopped to buy the Chicago pipe show bottle today. Chose MacCallan Cask Strength single malt. Definitely not an aperitif.
Enjoy
Doc

Not sure I have tried the cask strength, but I love the no. 12. This is becoming my favorite single malt, even though I got a couple of bottles of Glenfiddich 12 that go down very nice as well.

Right now, I'm on a Johnny Walker Gold kick. I need to go see if they are still on sale.

Right now I'm enjoying a gin and tonic with lime. Cool

I've been a Glenlivet man since asking for single-malt Scotch would put a questioning look of the face of most any mid-West bartender. No reason to change now Very Happy

It's Manischewitz Concord Grape, four glasses' worth, for the Passover celebration. All the flavor of a jar of Welch's grape jelly, with a hangover that may have been the eleventh plague.

Just finished sipping on the 12-Year Doublewood by The Balvenie. So, so, so smooth. My favorite single malt scotch whiskey. Great with my pipe.

While on our mini vacation to the in-laws, most evenings (after everyone else was in bed) my brother-in law & I would go to his garage/workshop/smoking parlor and smoke & drink till morning. He is a cigerette smoker so I took him a variety of Natural American Spirit cigarettes (from a sampler I got from them a while back). I would bring a zipper baggy of pipe baccy and we would drink, smoke & talk politics etc.. He is also a beer drinker, not cheap domestics mind you, he likes European Ales etc... Well brothers, he had some stuff called 'La Fin Du Monde' (The End Of The World) which is 9% alc., it's a triple fermented golden ale. He proceeded to pop the cork (yes a cork) and pour us two glasses full, it took about five minutes for the head to settle, this stuff was thick, sweet & smooth; and after a couple of glasses I was buzzing, but damn the hangover was a killer, all day one. The next day I went out & found some Jim Beam Rye for myself; I let him have the ales from then on.
