    Looks good Low Key. I've got a bottle of Wild Turkey that I think I'm about to go open. I think I'll have a cigar and drink a stiff one for Truman and family.

    Just Ron is a whiskey drinker. He prefers Crown Royal, but also drinks Jack Daniels. I think my biggest regret as far as naming my children goes is that our middle child is named William Evan. It really should have been Evan William, or I could have just cut to the chase and named him Wild Turkey

    I'm going for a nice Japanese single malt tonight. Japan's Suntory distillery produces a few diferent labels when it comes to whisky. Yamazaki, Hibiki, and Hakushu are their main expressions. While the Japanese single malts are produced very much in the same manner as the Scottish SM whiskies, they cannot be called Scotch. Scotch can only be produced in Scotland. The Japanese tend to rely less on the peaty side of things, however, there is a Hakushu Peated SM that is very reminscient of a smoky Islay malt.

    Both Suntory YAMAZAKI 12- and 18- year old single malts are aged in casks of three different kinds of oaks: American, Spanish and Japanese. This gives Suntory Whisky its unique quality. Each drink has a distinct taste.

    Tonight, I'm going with the YAMAZAKI Single Malt 18-Year Old Whisky
    This is a full-bodied whisky with spicy cherry-like tones. The toffee aromatics of this copper-gold colored whisky offer a pleasant, long, dry finish. A gentle, complex, savory dram.

    Do you mean a whisky distilled from honey? Or a whisky that has been flavored with honey? There are examples of both.

    I am hitting a bottle of Ballantine's pretty quick here.

    Not for drinking, though.

    I'm using it make some Bailey's for going to the lake this weekend.
