4 fingers of Johnnie Walker Blue... I am going to miss this free bottle when it’s gone. Next time pick up a case, moneybags 💰! 😎 |

A little bit too much Tomatin. Good stuff though. But damn. Too many fingers...

Likewise. It's strong, but the beans aren't particularly dark. I drank very dark-roasted Sumatra all the time for years, but eventually got tired of it and switched to these medium-ish roast Peruvian beans. I imagine I'll circle back at some point. |

Kona coffee from Costco...really good! Their Jamaican coffee is pretty good too...not as good as the old Wallingford High Mountain coffee...but close.

Dang Blast it!!
I have a quart bottle of Torpedo Ale way in the back of the refer and would have to excavate to get it out. So, I popped open a bottle of Italian Sparkling Moscato and called it good.

Think I'll score a couple of bottles, tomorrow, so What's in the Glass isn't always coffee. I'm thinking a bourbon and an Irish. Suggestions from those categories?

I could provide several. What's your price point?

Nothing crazy. I paid $70 for the bottle of Redbreast. Probably keep it at $100 or less right now, but if there's something at a higher price point that truly is spectacular, I'd like to hear about it. |

I find it hard to justify $70 for Redbreast, but it is really good. I actually drink Teelings Small Batch. The last bottle was about 45. The bottles before that were 28. Old Grandad just suits me. I haven't tasted a bourbon that I like half as much. |

I never saw them, anyway. If Bushmills or Jameson didn't make it, it wasn't on the shelves. There were several bourbons I liked quite a bit. Sounds like Rock Hill Farms has gone the way of Esoterica, though. Buffalo Trace, too, to a lesser extent. |

Tullamore Dew has been around a long time. I split a bottle with 5 good friends on one of the best days of my life. I keep a bottle on hand in case the need arises. It's the best selling Irish whiskey in France. 😎 |

I had a bottle of the 18, and one other special edition, but I can't remember what it was. |
