  1. Recent pickups from Julio's Liquors.

    First up, Ardbeg Smokiverse, this year's Fèis Ìle release. This just came in for those who had pre-ordered it, as I had, and will be generally available soon for Ardbeg Day.

    Next up, Pinhook 9 year Straight Rye Whiskey "The Home Stretch. This is part of the Loch & Key Whisk(e)y Society vertical series which sees a new release each year, each one year older than the last. I've been collecting these since it started and I'm planning to wait for it to end, then do a gathering to side-by-side all of them. It will end when it ends - basically whenever another year starts to be too much.

    Then Bully Boy Distillers Straight Bourbon Whiskey "Wickeder Dahk". Another Loch & Key bottling, this is obviously a follow up to the earlier "Wicked Dahk" bottle. (If you're wondering about the spelling, think Boston accent.)

    And finally, Alma del Jaguar Tequila Nocturne. We tried their range at a recent Whisk(e)y Wednesday at Julio's Liquors - the standard Blanco, Reposado, and Anejo, and this one. Their standard line ferments 20% with champagne yeast and 80% with wild yeast, and they were all very good. But Nocturne is 100% wild yeast and I thought it was the best of the lot, and very affordable, so I grabbed one.

  2. I got behind on posting the past few weeks of pickups from Julio's Liquors.

    First up, from a Whisk(e)y Wednesday at Julio's Liquors tasting, I picked up a couple of offerings from Raising Glasses - a four year Queen's Share bottling of Privateer Rum and Rum Passport, a six-nation single cask blend of rum.

    That same night I picked up my reserved Glenmorangie A Tale of Ice Cream.

    At another WW I picked up a couple of Mad River Distillers bottles - Summit American Single Malt Whiskey and Founders Reserve Straight Rye Whiskey. Both bottles were signed by co-founder Maura Connolly.

    That night I also picked up my reserved Wild Turkey Jimmy Russell 70th Anniversary Release 8 year bourbon.

    Then I was back in for another WW and I picked up the Loch & Key Whisk(e)y Society picked Bully Boy Distillers "Wicked Dahk" wheated bourbon and my reserved High West Distillery A Midwinter Night's Dram Act 12 Scene 2.
