Can anyone identify this old bottle of whisky or tell me what it may be worth? Cap foil says Spring 1917. Hate to open it! Sorry for the horizontal format!

Can’t make out the label but looks in good condition for a pre-prohibition bottle. Would be interested in seeing better pictures as I find these old bottles quite interesting.

Anyone use whisky stones? I got a set for Xmas, do they work at keeping the whisky cool with the no water leakage from ice cubes?

The Whisky Thread
Picked this up today... Found a little wine and sprits shop with a tasting license. Took a taste and liked it. Quite good for only $43 a bottle!

The Whisky Thread
Also... He had one bottle of this, https://michters.com/whiskey/20-year...aight-bourbon/
He wanted $4,000 Firm for it. I passed... Just sold his last two bottles of Pappy before I got there.

I've seen a few of these bottles around at local liquor stores, but at €400+ a bottle that was a nope for me. I'm not comfortable with spending that dough on a bottle of whisky yet. |

I love how you think the two are mutually exclusive.

Had a dram of Benromach last night, I got this bottle from my uncle and I'm quite impressed with this Scotch. A nice balance going on with some light smokiness. |

I’m the basic Islay guy.
Any Ardbeg is preferred, but I also own quite a few sq ft of the lands of Laphroaig distillery |

Anyone here ever went and 'claim' their bit of land at the distillery? You'll get to plant a little flag and all |

I just turned 35 and am looking for something good barreled in 1984. Any ideas where I could look? I'm definitely a bourbon/American whiskey guy, which presents a few problems in that bourbon was not very popular in the mid-80s... I've got a decent collection but am looking for something "special".
Open to suggestions... |
