Mad can't wait!

Have you got all 4?

[CrispyFries]

Hmm, I now have an ABN, when are BAS due?

Every 3 months for the rest of your natural business life. Enjoy.

Surprised to see JW in your list Hamish, I thought you hated the stuff. I too vote for Green; it was one of the better tasting from a non-scotch connoisseur. No love for the Chivas or Royal?

I quite like JW. I just think Blue is over priced. It's great and all, but it's JUST NOT A $170 bottle. - you can get highland park 18 for less

I used to drink green but alas it's gone :'(

I drink black as a daily (when it's $37 a bottle i usually buy one or 2 and it hits that price all the time)

Double black is also an interesting drop as the barrels have been charred quite heavily so it's a very individual taste

Also I drink a lot of blends too, i dont see the point in single malt snobbery... some blends are fantastic.

In the last 12 mths approx, i have been through blends - jw green, black, red and blue, balantines nv, balantines 12 and balantines 17, dimple 15, hibiki 17, and a chivas... so it sits probably 1 to 1 to my single malts (if you dont include the JW black daily)

I too don't think it's worth $170 a bottle, but then, I'm not huge on scotch, so to me no scotch is worth that beyond bragging rights of owning the extravagance. I do have two bottles of it though; one was a present and the other I bought because it was a little less than $150 T the time (it was on special and I also knew the staff member at LiquorLand). I have to be in the right mood to drink it; elated over something and celebratory by poolside, or in an anniversary of mourning.

Few years ago I remember the regular JW Black 2 for $50 special that used to appear at liquor stores. Should probably be buying up all these as they seem to be increasing in value over time / over and above inflation.

I'm more into the well to do champagnes, which aren't as good value because they don't last nearly as long and are easier to waste on people who don't appreciate them, unfortunately.

Did you sample the links posted last might birds?

[Birds]

I sampled one, the other rejected me...brought back a lot of painful childhood memories.

Was considering buying some at Changi, but had already spent too much on clothes. DP was also only $140AUD ea at the time, if you bought two of them.

The Veuve caught my eye, too. Lovely packaging.

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

got this veuve as well

[xALmoN]

just got given a dimple 15.

will open when i need a drink.

[Leroy Peterson]

I have some moet on the shelf... how long does it last?

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

little fridge is cool... used to have all sorts of VC merch as have worked heaps of places they sponsor

Dom is epicly good and would pay $140 but not if i had to buy 2.

used to crack a bottle every week that we made $28k in food and costs were below 25% when I was at Cosi... a deal I made with the owner cos she thought we couldn't do it

once it became regular it changed to veuve though
