One of the things I really enjoy is Whisky tasting. I really like getting all those different tastes,smells and hints of other flavours from the one drink. just a shame i dont get out to official tastings more often..
So, I was wondering..
What are your favorite top 3 beverages? Be it whisky, beer, wine etc..
My top 3 are:
1 Midleton Very rare Irish whiskey ($250 per bottle) – I have it neat (no ice, just in a glass) Simply the best I’ve ever had – to date
2 Jack Daniels/Gentleman Jack – my favorite to mix with coke or lemonade
3 the Macallan 18 year old whisky ($180 per bottle) – on rocks

Good reds (I have some decent Wolf Blas which might get a run soon).
JD
Beer
Good port runs a close fourth and I have a bottle of Chimay Grande Reserve which has been at home for a year and might get a run when it gets a bit warmer.
