What Are You Sipping on Lately? (Spirits Thread)

TXSTYLE · 04-11-2021, 12:03 AM

It's a Scotch kind of evening...

Lady Jane · 04-12-2021, 05:15 PM

The cost of hard seltzers i.e. White Claws®, is $18 for a six-pack at our local liquor store.

Thanks to YouTube, I've been doing my own at a fraction of the price and have tried many variations.

1½oz of vodka
1 can of fruit flavored sparkling water or Soda water.
3oz of fruit juice or to taste.

Came across this delicatable delight online and had to track it down with a description like this...

Quote:

Kasama Rum is the sunshine spirit. We are a small-batch, seven-year-old rum from the Philippines. Distilled from Noble sugarcane and aged in ex-bourbon American oak barrels, Kasama has a light, easy-to-sip taste with notes of pineapple, vanilla and banana. Welcome to the good life!
ABV: 40.0%

In my ongoing quest to seek out unique and amazing Rums to add to my collection.

I'm gonna have to look for that. The only rum I have had from the Philippines is Tanduay

Grabbed a fifth of P12 and then had a change of heart and returned it to the shelf. Grabbed a 1.5 of Jameson instead. What the hell. No such thing as "work night" anymore for me.

Figured tonight was as good as any to break out the EH Taylor Single Barrel.

Itsed65 · 04-30-2021, 08:15 PM

About to bust this open in celebration of my retirement today. Not up to my usual photo standards but i am in the middle of packing up the house for a 3200 mile move, and I have been "celebrating" a bit already

M_Six · 04-30-2021, 08:22 PM

Enjoy it, Ed! And I have several of those same mouse pads. GMTA.

It's tasty. Not as smooth as my usual Rums. But very flavorful.

Good to know!

TXSTYLE · 05-06-2021, 07:10 PM

Picked this up for guests we have coming over tomorrow.
One of the absolute smoothest and flavourful Tequilas you can buy under $100.

Joekerr · 05-06-2021, 07:38 PM

Macallan Classic Cut tonight. But I almost grabbed the Ardbeg.

ASAP · 05-06-2021, 07:55 PM

Something way different for me than usual... tried Dewars 21... which is $65 for a 375ml... but shockingly good for the price. Cheapest 21 YO anywhere.... do not confuse this with Dewars white label lol.

After the Classic Cut, I polished off the finger left of Lagavulin 16. Frick me, I'm turning into Murf993 - going to have to line up a donor liver sooner rather than later if such a thing can be arranged.
