Figured we need a good thread as clearly it seemed we enjoyed talking haha.Love this thread, thanks for starting @kanundrum !
I've traditionally been a beer guy, but just recently got started with whiskey over the last couple years, so still pretty new to the game. Started off over ice with lower proof & preferred mellower stuff, now I like higher proof and bolder stuff. Haven't ventured into Scotch too much, but bought some Laphroaig because I tend to like smokiness...not a huge fan, it's a punch in the face.
@opnwide I love to fish, but haven't found the time to do it nearly enough in recent years. I've always wanted to go tuna fishing, but have never done it. Oddly enough, had plans & intentions several years ago when vacationing in the Virgin Islands...long story short, had too much scotch on the fishing yacht with the captain & crew the night before they were going to take us, and nobody was in any shape to go the next day. My girlfriend's brother was a captain for a private luxury yacht that we here able to stay on, and the fishing yacht was owned by the brother of our yachts owner. One of the coolest trips I've been on, so can't complain too much about missing the fishing.
The punch in the face scotch's whiskies are definitely acquired. If you do find that threewood bottle from Auchentoshan I Highly recommend, I thought the American Oak was good but no where near as smooth as the 3 wood which is why I think its a great sipping/neat whiskey.
Ive been off beers for calorie reasons but I was a huge fan of Westvletren 12 if you have ever had that, exclusivity aside as well as alcohol content it was so delicious.
