Last night I had a Sierra Nevada Celebration and a Founders Red's Rye PA. Tonight I had a Southern Tier Choklat and a Fox Barrel Blackberry Pear Cider.
Well, I've got a raging sore throat that feels like I'm gargling razor blades, so no smoking this week. But a great help to clear it up is painting the back of my throat with some Kentucky disinfectant. So currently enjoying an Elijah Craig 18 year old Single Barrel. It'll go great with a smoke when I can have one again.
Le Toument Verte Absinthe right now: not absinthe, not even good. Glad I only wasted a few bucks on a nip. Artificial blue-green color, almost no louche, perfume and eucalyptus on the nose, sweet without the addition of sugar, anise, eucalyptus, mint and ethanol on the pallet.
Went out with a couple of buddies from work for beer last night and had the Firestone 15 on tap, Great Divide Oak Aged Yeti on tap, Southern Tier Back Burner and Unearthly both on tap, Dogfish Head 120 on tap and a couple of others that I can't quite remember - all small 5oz sample sizes. Either way, it was a good beer night.
Picked up a bottle of this last week (based on your recommendation LOL) and was not blown away. Not saying it was bad, just kind of meh....I usually drink my rum on the rocks, maybe a wedge of lime added. Is there a way you enjoy this one, besides straight up on the rocks that I could try? I'm a fan of Pyrat in the summer and Zaya in the winter.
I've had the Zacapa XO-loved it. It's really hard to find out here in the pucker-brush, tho. Thanks for the other suggestions. So many rums, so little time...
