Pirate Scott have your ever had Hibiki? It's maybe a touch ballsier but less peaty. Very smooth still. Can't think of anything else off hand to compare it to. Let me think on it

I hear that. The only time I'll put an ice cube in my whisk(e)y is if it's HOT out and I'm craving whiskey. Sometimes you just have to have a cold drink. Shandies are one of my favorite summertime beverages.

Those look/sound majestic...any chance of a receipt? I never keep any tequila here at FBBF, fer safety reasons, but I certainly know how to acquire some.
Ain't had me a margarita, in quite some time, as much as I love em.

Well, since I'm sitting here reading up on all posts, a little 'reward' is in place, methinks.

I have some Diplomatico, single estate vintage rum. It's one of the very best I've tried.

The glass is really solid, I like that. It has a nice heavy feel. I refer to the glass as a "J.R. Ewing" glass, if anyone remembers that old TV series "Dallas" :-)
