Come out to the coast, we'll get together, have a few laughs, crawl through an air duct, cause an explosion, maybe defenestrate a German guy… man, that was *not* the Christmas party I expected. Anyone know if bearer bonds are still valid with a little bit of char on them? Yippee-ki-yay. This fists-with-your-feet thing sure works better without the broken glass.

Day 18 is my annual calendar signing night, apparently. The year before I started this whole whisky Advent calendar project, I began putting together photo calendars for my Scout camp's alumni association from my photography at the camp. I do all the work, sign and number the series, cover the printing, shipping, and credit card handling costs, and donate 100% of the price to the association.

Got home from the Jacques Pépin book signing/dinner tonight to dram 17, Seaweed & Aeons & Digging & Fire & Cask Strength 10 Year Old (Batch 04), a partly sherry-finished single malt from an unnamed Islay distillery @ 58.3%ABV.

Day 16 of Whisky Advent is a mouthful: Douglas Laing's Old Particular Fanatical About Flavor Teaninch 12 year old 2009 (cask 15437), a single cask single malt. Lemon, hay, and something sweet on the nose; malty sweetness, cocoa, and warm spices on the palate with just a little bit of peat; the peat comes out a bit more along with clove and allspice on the finish. Very, very tasty tipple.

Lochlea single-cask Ex-Bourbon single malt at a healthy 60.2% ABV cask strength for Day 15.
I get some vanilla and green apple on the nose; more apples and pears on the palate, with some malt that lingers into the finish, which has some pepper-y, ginger-y heat from the alcohol. Nice and smooth, though, despite the strength. Lovely for a young whisky.

Behind door 14 was That Boutique-y Whisky Company's Ardmore Batch 9 19-year-old single malt at 50.2%ABV. Dried fruit rule the day here: strong on the nose, with a bit of sea air and lemon; turning to toffee and fruitcake on the palate with a whiff of smoke; and fading to prunes and a bit of oak on the finish. I liked this one quite a bit, but a full bottle is spendy.

Day 13 is Glenfarclas' 25-year-old expression, finished in ex-Oloroso sherry, 43%ABV. This is the oldest of theirs I've tasted—I've had the 21 and the 15 before. Like the others, a big ol' sherry bomb. Right up front on the nose, along with vanilla, citrus, and leather; thick caramel, vanilla, orange peel, oak, and smoke on the palate; with a sweet finish that is oaky. 25 years in a barrel'll do that.

Simple shot tonight. I try one along these lines almost every year; one day I'll figure out the lighting combination that gets me what I'm actually looking for. This is close.
The dram behind door 12 was the Kilchoman Sanaig, a NAS peated sherry-finished Islay single malt at 46% ABV.

Another day that got away from me, between a late stay at the office and nasty weather traffic on the ride home.
Late nightcap also means quick photo; decided to grab a few of the analog cameras to frame things. I've always had a bit of a soft spot for Polaroids, mostly because my grandfather worked for them for years, driving a forklift around their facility in New Bedford.

Wait. How did you think I learned about tasting whisky?
I kid, I kid. I was already more than passably familiar with brown spirits before this fun & informative book was published. Struck me I hadn't posed a dram with it yet in this exercise, so here it is for day 10.
