Started my evening last night with a few snifters
And then at about half one in the morning after the cocktails I ended the evening with a delicious Disaronno.

The other night me and a friend shared a bottle of rum. The man who sold and recommended it to us was very insistent that we drank it neat WITHOUT ice which he described being a hangable offence. So that's what we did. Didn't quite finish the bottle but we had a good go.

I just picked up a bottle of this a few weeks back! I am not a rum person at all but this stuff is delicious. Smooth, gently spiced brown sugar.
Quite impressed.
No pictures, but we're watching Venture Bros. and drinking Johnnie Walker Green. A perfect Monday night.
We have fancier whiskey glasses, but I have a soft spot for the Mt Rainier glasses.

Heading to a big scotch tasting tonight that I'm really excited about and I've got tomorrow booked off to rest. It's at a liquor store with 3 floors and they fill the place with tasting stations and some food. And it's all you can drink, they give you a glass when you walk in and you go for whatever you want.
Edit: picked up a Captain's Reserve Glenlivet, Bowmore 15, and Glenfarclas 12

Snagged this when I got home:
I know Bourbon from outside of Kentucky is... well... not really Bourbon. But i do like to support local. This is the stout cask finished.
it was bottled here in Durham but distilled in Indiana? What the hey? Oh well. It’s not bad, not great. There was a sherry casked as well, will probably try that at some point as well.
it could use a few more years of aging.

How Can Different Craft Whiskeys Come From One Big Distillery?
Indiana’s MGP Distillery makes whiskey for a lot of different brands, but many of them take extra steps to stand out.

Some light reading to go with your pour. MGP in Indiana makes the juice for a majority of the craft whiskey brands I see on shelves around me. Some of them are good, some of them are bad.

I picked up a Red and Yellow Spot last year in your lovely city. Both have been very nice.
Reminds me I need to get another bottle of Powers Gold soon as I have almost killed this bottle off today. [had to edit that since I have added several ounces to my never empty coffee mug today]

The gf went to bed early so I’m up celebrating the new year with the cat 
My local shop had this for $44 which is way below normal price plus a bunch of other whiskey’s I wanted to grab. My personal favorite the Glenlivet 12 was slightly more expensive for some reason so I went with this one.

Decided to treat myself with a couple of bottles after surviving sober January.
The Eagle Rare ($37) is a single barrel from one of my local shops, said to be a bit spicy which I like.
I’m going into the E. H. Taylor ($90) blind but usually like what I try from them.
