Not scotch, but can recommend Bushmills 21 year oldJust poured some '94 Glenrothes... it was my last pour, actually. Guess I'll be shopping for some more Scotch on Monday, any suggestions?
Hang onto that thing for three decades to find it’s bad? In a year of indignities, that’s one more.This was what I had for Christmas dinner. The margaux had gone bad, unfortunately.

After dinner, I had a bottle of Frederiksdal Solera, and it was incredible. Highly recommend trying any of Frederiksdal Cherry wines, never been disappointed.

Ahhhhh,,,,, Margaux,,,,,,my absolute favourite. rich,,,,full-bodied,,,earthy,,,,. I've got two bottles of 1976 Margaux stashed away, and I'm scared to open them. Arghhhh
live life dangerously....open one, or risk waiting until it has become expensive vinegar.
I decided waiting for wine is not for me long ago, when I bought some cases Latour before they were even produced, too early to drink...guess what, 2 bottles made it to the 'right age'

16 large at the package store. Straight up, neat in a steel bullet proof flask that sits in the inside upper left pocket of my war torn leather jacket. Perfect for a late night winter stake out hunting down and getting revenge on the Russian mob kingpin that raped and killed my family. Takes the edge off.
I was still living in Indiana when we hosted the Super Bowl in '12. At that time you still couldn't buy any sort of alcohol to go on Sundays which was obviously a massive issue leading into SB Sunday. Well, in the weeks ahead, the Indy Star published an article from lawmakers explaining that public drinking was actually legal, and everyone had basically just been assuming it wasn't forever, so this opened up the opportunity for bars to sell drinks in plastic cups so folks could roam around as they pleased.
My 25 year old ass, deep in the throws of developing alcoholism, decided that meant I should walk around downtown with a 1/5th of Old Grand Dad in my hand (and a reserve in a backpack) finding people who were in from out of town and welcoming them with a shot. It could be argued that the unwilling were peer pressured/berated into joining, but everyone mostly seemed to enjoy it as much as me.
The small group of 40 something Boston Pats bros trying to flex in a bar that I tried to buy a drink for later in the night were *far* less amused when I opened with "**** Bill Belichick, I hope all the bad things in the world happen to him and only him, but welcome to Indy, let me buy ya a round!" They were spending way more money than me, and I was escorted out for refusing to stop demanding they let me buy them a ****** cheap round of beers. The bar was making enough that they told me not to bother paying for the ****** beers I'd been drinking, and those dudes didn't kick my ass like they kept threatening to, so all in all I'd say that was a pretty fantastic Friday.
As for right now? Hendricks dirty martinis while I go at some cabbage for kraut
