M5Rick wroteTempted to crack open the 1738 after dinner but decided to leave it until Sunday.
TXSTYLE wroteFor about the same price as the 1738, Delord has an XO Bas-Armagnac that I heartily recommend. Not as easy to find, but better value (to my taste, anyway) than the famous houses. Check it out if you stumble across it!Take a look at the very first post in this thread.
…or was that during?
Josh-PA wroteThis is not rare, especially for the bottles I've had stowed in the basement for a few years. If it was a new purchase, call the liquor store to get the contact info for your local distributor, and contact them. Laphroaig got me several new bottles when this happened to me (several years ago). You can strain through a fine metal mesh (tea strainers work well).Curious what you guys would do about this (if anything). I have a relatively new bottle of Remy XO and the cork just completely disintegrated. Lots of little floaters in the bottle. I sent an email to Remy but didn't get any reply. It's a little frustrating.
1. 1/3c water. Heat in microwave until boiling. About 2.5 min.
2. 1 heaping tablespoon (actual spoon, not a measuring tablespoon) of dark wildflower honey. Mix before adding next ingredients.
3. 3oz of whisky.
4. 1 heaping tablespoon of lemon juice. Stir everything.
5. Heat in microwave for about 60 seconds to reheat.
6. Pour in a tempered mug with a half of cinnamon stick. We use a yeti mug to keep it warm whilst we drink.
tcphoto wroteExcellent choice. I’m far from a connoisseur, but I was elated after being recently introduced.Just a soft sipping Bourbon to get in the holiday spirit. Happy Holiday's everyone!
Not sure I remember what I had after sipping it last night. Certainly wasn't harsh, but all the flavor notes on the side of the container weren't evident in my mouth.
