    Very nice.

    Is that a real question?

    If so - 1 bottle at a time that I’ve been interested in. On the rocks - usually 2-3 cubes and prob 2 ounces per drink, enough to well over the ice.

    I am getting older and am beginning to just enjoy a few drinks SOME evenings just to knock the edge off or let the cares of the day slip away - but more and more am getting distanced from getting any real kind of intoxicated.

    How about you other experienced whiskey drinkers?
    Casual few or late nights polishing bottles off?
    The stupidity of some people never ceases to amaze me.

    1+ to this. Absolutely HATE being intoxicated or even buzzed. For me it’s more of a ritual of relaxation. I can do it with water, but I actually like the taste so whisky it is.

    AFAIK, it’s “whiskey” for Irish & Tennessee, “whisky” for pretty much everything else. 😎

    Nice selection. I really like that Elijah Craig barrel proof.

    Yeah, the boxes on the floor are full as well.

    And in the words of a friend, the stage after Intervention is called Celebration.

    I really like whisk(e)y but I am a casual drinker. I don't care to get drunk at all.

    The only time I have more than a couple of neat pours a week is if I'm having a tasting with friends.

    That bottle is from batch C917. It's like drinking liquid peanut butter to me. I'm having a difficult time enjoying it. I'm hoping it gets better after it sits awhile.
