The in-laws have a cold so this evenings feast is cancelled - means I get to play with watches, watch poirot and finish the Christmas port... shame 😀

My wife got gave me a Nikka single malt along with a fantastic book I recommend to you guys. It’s a nice hard cover with great pics, the history of Japanese distilleries, how they are made, and awesome tasting notes/scores of all of the Japan whiskies.

Corpse Reviver No. 2. A criminally underrated and unknown cocktail in my opinion (though any halfway decent bartender can make you one)

Black Manhattan tonight. This used to be my go-to at home but I rarely make them anymore. Once I got into nice single malts I prefer my drinks neat, no ice or anything.

Seemed appropriate while watching the 60 minutes segment on Islay Whiskey.


Cheers Jim thanks for making this Dram.

I got a bottle of this and have to say, I'm beyond pleasantly surprised.

Leathery with vanilla notes and just enough rough edge to be interesting.

Wonderful German unfortunately slightly corked but the magic shines through.

The Scotch selection is wonderful.

Bubbles later.
