That’s the I’m working to finish of group.

I’ll pick up the Doyen this weekend!

 

Wasn't today, but had a 2 oz pour of this a while back. It was tasty. If I got another 2 oz, I would have finished the bottle at the restaurant and they give you the bottle. Turns out it sells for $400 on Ebay (the empty bottle).

 

Interesting stuff. I’ve had it a few times. 2oz is not a bad price. Super complex and worth it’s price... but the High end Frapin is better but not as complex at 1/3 the price.

 

I was on the Celebrity Reflection ship last month and they had the Louis XIII for $3,000 in the onboard shop. I asked if they sold many and he said about 3 over the last year, all Asians.

 

Chinese 5 grain white liquor, I eventually emptied the whole bottle myself.....

 

baijiu!!!!

I had some rice based baijiu in Portland at http://vinndistillery.com/

Interesting process, and normally never made with rice in China. The Portland stuff was amazing.

 

My Japanese mother in law got me this black label for my birthday today. I pulled some of my other bottles I have received from her side. These whiskies are serious guys, I’ll put them up to anything from other countries.

 

Whoa, that’s a massive pour in that glass! What would you say this tast like, vodka?

 

It’s 25-60%. Normally made from fermented sorghum. Tastes of the base grain and notes from the fermentation. Generally a thicker mouthfeel then vodka. Vodka generally doesn’t get notes of fermentation.

Neat stuff, a little different then what you normally get from the West.

 

Vodka, Sake, and a lemon twist.

 

Stella with Sub.

 

Love me some barley wine!

 

Nearly made it to the end of the month...

 

The Arran, LE - a potent dram but amazing notes when savored slowly..

 

Looks like cask strength?

 

not by the technical definition of cask strength, typically in the range of 58–66% ABV..but I'm not complaining about that

 

T.b.h. i'm not a great beer drinker but spotted this today so that I would give it a try. Some how I suspect it may be a great drain cleaner

 

Mmmmmmm Duff......

 

I bought this because it will look good in my bookshelf, I’m shallow lol. Pretty good pour though.
