Any One for a Scotch?

[ericgereghty]

Of the Signatory’s I got
2x 15y Macallan
1x 18y Macallan
2x 10y Ben Nevis
1X 19y Highland Park
1X 11y Glenallachie

Which is the 15yo Mac? From KL?

I’m going for the HP, Nevis, Ardmore, and 18yo Mac.

Anybody have experience with Cameronbridge? I’ve none at all, but that’s a super tempting price for a CS juice

Think it's sold out

Been well over a year since the last pour. It’s lovely, and, not that I was waffling, but pushed me to commit to the KL Signatories…which awesomely were bumped a bit (only the ones I wanted lol) in price since yesterday

Yeah, the preorder price is usually 10-20% cheaper, which is hard because sometimes you want to wait for tasting notes before purchasing, but that’s the risk

God the cherry cola note is so aggressively potent. That is all my brain is telling me (wrongly, but still), and I am 100% on board with it.

Snatched this on my KL run to grab the Signatory bottlings. Have never seen/tasted a higher proofed Benromach, and this is plenty good.

Really dig these cask finishes. This one drinks shockingly light for its ABV. Creamy tropical fruits for days.

Solid leg day recovery, all in all…now to watch the Cowboys hurt my heart.

Dodgers hater*, in full transparency.

But, also a Yankee hater, so baseball is going just swimmingly for me.

@ericgereghty @jcman311

Either of you guys tried the new signatories yet?

 

[jcman311]

No. Waiting on shipping.

@venividivicibj nein, but the HP is next on my crack list, I think…but man the color on the Nevis is so seductive. Picking up the 2nd half of the haul (and a few others because I’m a weak man) this weekend, so that may change. That ABV on the Glenallachie has my inner masochist tempted.

Tonight’s pour. Grabbed unexpectedly on a run and came across it at a (relatively) reasonable price, at least compared to the insane listings I’ve seen it at.

MAN it’s good. Makes me wish I lived somewhere properly cold.

Those Kilkerrans are amazing (but, hard to find). They change the aging every year - last year they did a port and a bourbon I believe

 

[ericgereghty]

First Signatory crack last night. Good sweet/smoky interplay. Needs a TON of time (or water lol) to open up. Maybe an hour or more. Really excited to see how this smooths out in future pours.

 

[ericgereghty]

Juicy, but not quite the decadent Sherry bomb you might expect. I guess in keeping with HP/Orkney, peat is feather light.

Easy sipper even at higher ABV straightaway.
