Favorite Whiskey?

I bought a bottle of the EH Taylor about 3 days before the article came out about their awards.... wait for it......

I paid $42 at the time

 

get out

 

I think I know what I’m drinking tonight...

 

are you accepting any ...umm..non cash payments for a bottle of that taylor

 

whats it gonna take to pry one of those BP's out of your hands

 

+1

 

Whatcha got? and which one ya want?

The Barrel Proof is my favorite. I originally thought I would trade or sell 2, and keep 2.
I've had trade offers on the barrel proof for either two Weller 12s, or 1 EHT Rye + 1 EHT Single Barrel + 2 EHT Small Batches.
But I can't bring myself to part with one yet...

 

i can get you some more weller SR

 

lol multi team blockbuster trades

how bout I move into your basement and we just drink them together

 

Yep, my first bottle of small batch I bought was completely off the look of it...paid sub $50 I remember. Think that was in 2017-2018. Subsequent bottles have been $55 or so...

Now the Single Barrel and Barrel Proof I have were a bit more but I know they're even harder to find lol

 

Edit: are the tubes above empty? Still a nice collection either way...

 

Brought some of this back from Japan when I visited my broham.

Still the best bottle of whisky I have ever had.
This is the bottle, when half drunken, made me realize good whisky does not give you a hangover.

 

Couple good pick ups today. And tonight’s first pour. My palate has really been enjoying scotch lately. Funny thing about it is most stores have an abundance, but GD it’s expensive.

 

In 2019 the previous administration put a 25% tariff on scotch. I hope it gets repealed soon. I also like scotch very much and never have trouble finding a good bottle.

 

In June of 2018 the EU put a 25% tariff on bourbon imports. Turnabout is fair play. We likely won't see the single malt import tariff disappear until the European bourbon import tariff is nixed.

 

There's an opinion article written about the tariffs in Washington Post today (not really political but I don't want to risk posting a link). Google "Washington Post Whisky Tariff". It's written by a Chicago distillery owner and talks about the trade war and how it keeps escalating. It didn't start off with liquor but it ended up including it. I didn't know that the 25% tariff is set to double in June unless something is done.

If you like scotch, better stock up before June!

 

The problem with tariffs are that the consumer is the one who has to ultimately pay the price.

 

Not as a amazing as above but enjoying some of

 

get out please
