In the mug: Mountain Wulong oolong tea from World Market. Good, but I should have made it a bit stronger...

Finally, I got into the mood and open up

This whisky reminded why I love whisky and why I can drink 30ml for half an hour. Tiny little sips. It was the first try and I liked it
That looks lovely. Given how good the 10 year is, I'm quite jealous. (We can't get the 18 year here. The next one up is 25 year, at a price I'm not really able to pay. And then, there's the 30 year!)

Had to go look... ...sounds like the 18 year is available in very limited quantities (one review said it is made "sporadically"), and is the one that has won awards recently. Could make it hard to find in some parts of the world, I would imagine.

And that review now has me wanting to try some.

After a day of carbohidrates including a breakfast of pancakes with OJ, a lunch of pasta (with zucchini and shrimps) with an innocent Bloody Mary for me and a triple sidecar for BG, she will have a thick pizza Margherita with a couple of Leffe's and me, raw cabbage, raw fennel finely shredded, a tin of some fish and sparkling water. And that's the truth.

How interesting.
It is available in all online shops in the UK and the word limited is not mentioned at all.
Talisker 18 Year Old (70cl, 45.80%) the one that I bought I just realised...on 29/08/2010. It was sitting in my bar longer than one year!

Maybe y'all in the UK are keeping it to yourselves?

One of the "joys" of the Provincial liquor system here is that we can only buy alcoholic beverages that the BC Liquor Board brings in, and only buy them at the price set by them.

So the Talisker 18, which should be a very interesting step up from the 10yr, is not available. And my budget isn't really up to $309 CAD for the 25 yr. But maybe someone will give it to me for xmas? Ah, one can hope...

Morning! I have company coming and will have to catch up on everyone and the interesting links. Egg nog, The Land of Nog, Tia Maria, etc... this evening.

Right now, as I finish cooking, last of the morning coffee and preparing a new pot to be ready to brew when company arrives.

Once bottled it changes very little. The 18 years refers the time in barrels after distilling and before bottling.
