  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over the next few weekends BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

.. has anyone else tried this? I just picked some up at Duty Free on my way to/from Canada last week. This has got to be one of the best 12 year single-malt's I've had in awhile! I love the sweet finishing notes on it. I just have no idea what cigar I should pair this with. Any suggestions?

Regards,
Randy

My favorite cheapish single malt. Unfortunately I usually get into some form of trouble or another every time I break open a bottle. Rarely lasts more then a night.
WTF! Good Lord man. Good thing your Canadian. Any lesser man might end up dead.

I've heard of this but never had the pleasure. The "sweet finish" really appeals to me, though!

I'm still new to the Scotch world. My go-tos are Glenlivet and Glenfiddich 12-year both because they are the best ones available here at the Class 6. They did have a bottle of The Glenlivet 18 once, so I bought it--very smooth and nice! I also splurged and got a 1/2 bottle of MacAllen 12-year at a Japanese store. That was also really nice.

I highly recommend this scotch. It's defenitely one of my favorite single malts. I seriously doubt you'll be disapointed.
