My first Glenmorangie bottle and pour. This one is creamy smooth.


So far I think Glenmorangie is my favorite distillery - the Nectar d'Or is a staple for me now. Even the standard 10yr is a lot smoother and tastier than just about anything in its price range ($28/750mL even here in post-capitalist wasteland Bay Area) save sake.

A refreshing little concoction with gin, elderflower and chamomile and a nice bowl of ceviche.

@alam Nice, what do you think?

Tomatin for me today, reminds me a lot of my Balvenie 17.

Oh it's the diver - but it's the Deep Sea Chronograph Vintage. Bezel from the DSA, faux lume, running seconds and chrono engagement indicator delete... and the best part? Case reduced from 42mm to 40.5. Thing straight kicks ass

Yeah I went looking for it too. I tried the deep sea on at a JLC boutique and fell in love. Pictures do not do that watch justice at all. In hand it鈥檚 an amazing piece. It made my POC feel like a Seiko.

Yeah, it's a really really strong watch. As soon as I saw it in reports from Basel 2012 I knew I had to have one, and eventually it came and found me. Don't regret it one small bit
