It's night and day compared to the peaty blast you get from the likes of Ardbeg or Laphroaig. Light peat if any, information I've found is conflicted in whether or not Bunnahabhain uses peat.

The one I had was from a few years back. My friend went crazy when they sold out once and ordered multiple bottles as soon as they were available again. Good thing, because they've almost doubled in price. So my information might be a bit dated.
Rick number, barrel number, flask number and bottling date are all written on the bottle in gold pen.

I think it's a fucking fantastic Whiskey. Very pronounced, complex and lasting taste; warm, spicy, a bit fruity and slightly sweet.

The 51.5 Vol% aren't really for me, though - I kept choking on the alcohol fumes when I swished it around in my mouth. But that's nothing a few drops of water can't fix.

zacapa is basically a liqueur with all the sugar they add, and the solera method means very very little of it has significant age to it. as long as you look at it as a younger rum with a flavored character, it's good. if you think of it as an example of what good aged rum tastes like, you're being played, and you'll miss out on all the good stuff

if you like sipping brown stuff and rums, and you have a Total Wine around you, go grab some Seale's 10 year old and see how you like it; it's a steal at 20 dollars. If you don't dig it, get El Dorado 15 and up and just enjoy drinking sweet stuff and fuck the haters.

If you love Seale's, go down the rabbit hole, get some Appleton 12 or older, or Mount Gay XO or 1703, or maybe get into bourbon and scotch.

I want to try an Islay malt that isn't super peated. I have only had Ardbeg 10 and Laphroaig 10. Both good, though I liked the Ardbeg better. As far as peated scotch goes I have also had Highland Park 12.

I am thinking of trying Bunnahabhain 12, though Caol Ila 12 sounds good too (smokier though). I will probably just buy whichever one is cheaper.

Or I could be really cheap and get Bowmore 12 out of the way. Any opinions on it?

Madeira and tawny Port are both lovely and you don't get quite the same very fruity sweetness you get from red Ports. More along the lines of a dried fruit and nuttiness. Similar, if distinct, wines given they both have that deliberately oxidized character. Good Sherry can be a bitch to find depending on where you are. Less so in Europe but in the USA at least in my experience most stores don't stock anything but the cheapest Sherry which is barely above the cooking variety.

Huh, that is a good idea. I myself just sip on scotch, but get drunk on bourbon, but I normally finish the bottle of scotch and then buy a new one. I may start buying a new bottle half way through - just to the neck isn't quite enough for me to be familiar with the malt, I think.
