processhead are you hanging out in Spain or the Azores? I had some great food and port from both locations, but a bit more fond of the Azores.

Mainly Portugal but a couple days in Spain. Both nice, but Portugal has been a blast.

I got into some Four Roses small batch, it has been awhile since I had it, that is some pretty descent stuff for the price point.

Been enjoying some Grahams 10 y.o.
Tawny Port.
processhead been thinking of trying port for a while. When I saw your post it inspired me. Just picked this up on the recommendation of the quite knowledgeable sommelier at my local liquor store. Taste pretty darn good to me.

Surg Gentleman Jack makes a fine drink. I’ve had some JD single barrel select that was really tasty also. Jack is still one of my favorite whiskeys, even Old number 9

Surg this is one of the Gentleman Jack bottles that I’m not opening and leaving in my JD collection. I picked it up at the distillery on the 150th anniversary.
I also picked up this bottle at the distillery in 2016. I bought it for retirement, to be opened on my last day at the PD. Im saving whats left for special occasion shots. Its smooth for a 132.5 proof single barrel, but it burns a bit going down.

GWG8541 that’s a sweet bottle don’t blame you for wanting to open it. May have to try to get my hands on a bottle of that barrel proof. Love a good high octane drink every now and then.

GWG8541 That’s pretty wild that it’s that hot and is smooth, that usually doesn’t go hand in hand.

Surg Will be looking for that as a try. Like bourbons, ports are regional depending on the state. I’ve stayed with mostly the Ware’s line due to consistency. But, have tried others. Thanks for the nod.

HerbcoFood to clarify, its smooth for JD. Especially at that alcohol content.

I checked with my local liquor store after we got home. He had few varieties and is going to look and see if he can get the Grahams 10 yo Tawny that I fell in love with.

GWG8541 Yeah, I am not a huge fan of JD black label, after visiting their distillery and taking a whiff of the charcoal while the hooch filtered through it really messed me up. Which is perfectly fine, so many better whiskeys out there these days.
