    why do your "tonight's choices" always include a different firearm?

    Honestly it tends to be what ever is in my cleaning schedule or I was carrying that day. They beat that into you in boot camp so I try to keep my stuff dust free and in condition to use in case of Zombies.

    (Plus it is just another way to show off!)

    :D

    I am new to the world of single malt scotch but in my travels I always seek out the liquor stores as I carry around a list for my boss as he is the real scotch drinker.
    Just found out that Dahlmore is being discontinued. It is not a pricey scotch but I did purchase all I could find and ended up with a case of Dahlmore 12 year. My boss likes it. It will reappear in May or June through a different vendor and will be reformulated, so if you found a bottle it may be a unique gift to give. I know they made 12 year and another called Cigar and I believe there was another one. So far 12 year is all I could come up with for him.

    Interesting. I had not hear that. I liked the Dahlmore. I will have to see if I can get a box or two if they are going out.

    I noticed you posted a picture of the Blue Label "King George V" edition on another thread--
    have you (and/or anyone here) tried it? How does it compare to Blue?

    Springbank 30 is spectacular and readily available......~$11-$1,200 per bottle.

    There might be some rarer stuff for more if you dig for it but if you're gifting this to a connoisseur, he'll know. ;)

    **Edit** Here's one: http://www.lovescotch.com/productDetail.php?pid=238

    Lagavulin for me. My father is a die-hard Macallan drinker so my exposure to scotch was limited. A close friend owns a restaurant and in one of our many after-hours bottle samplings he suggested the Lagavulin. I've been a believer since then. In fact I picked up a bottle for our place in Florida today so I can survive the Passover Sedar tomorrow night ;)

    Lagavulin's my favorite as well. Our Sedar will have the standard Chivas & Dewars, I'm the only Blum who likes the smokey stuff.

    I picked up a bottle, it's VERY strong. Not bad with a bit of water and some ice cubes though! Can't remember the brand, I do think it was 117 proof.
