What are you drinking tonight?

Monte Rosso Vineyard
Cabernet Sauvignon

Have to thank my son-in-law and daughter for bringing the bottle of wine for our Christmas Eve meal.
I am not a wine drinker per se, but this was very good

Cranberry Ramos Gin Fizz for a festive pre dinner cocktail. Cabernet with dinner. Little bit of everything afterwards.
 
For those in Iowa, Maine Brewing is starting to appear. The new Wall to Wall place had Lunch, Peeper, Mean Old Tom, and Woods and Waters. I've had Lunch before and it's pretty solid. I bought Peeper and Mean Old Tom to try out. I think they were $6.99.

I have a question for the Scotch lovers. I got some cash for Christmas, and want to add a nice bottle of Scotch to my bar. I've had Glenlivet in the past and like it; would you stick with the Glenlivet, or splurge on Lagavulin 8?

I am a peat/smoke guy, so very biased, but consider some other Islay bottles, besides Lagavulin. Ardbeg, Kilchoman, Talisker, etc. My go-to is Laphroaig 10, but there are lots of varieties to choose from. I drink them neat, and it is perfect whisky weather right now!

Lagavulin and Talisker are two of my favorites. Are you near a Trader Joe's? They actually have some pretty solid scotch for very reasonable. Not as a nice bottle but they're good.

Laphroaig is also very good.

How many years aged is the Glenlivet that you had?

The 18 is the best bang for your buck if you’re looking for quality. (Just over $100, worth it though)

I think it was the founders reserve single malt scotch. It was their cheapest one but still good. I might need to splurge on the 18 year, though I've heard good thing about Lagavulin.
