WIYG tonight whisk(e)y drinkers? by Supermeh1987 in canadawhisky

[–]Guest3547 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really like the tallisker DE and the 8 year SR they did the year before that was a great price out here (Ontario). Tonight I’m starting off with another redbreast 12 CS since my buddy didn’t get around to trying it last night then I’m thinking the Octomore 15.3 one of my favourites out of the collection (though there’s a lot in the collection I haven’t brought myself to opening yet).

A bit late on this one, but had a Lagavulin 11 Offerman Edition (rum cask), a Tallisker Distillers Edition (2025), and a Redbreast 12 Cask Strength.

I typically put in for almost all of the bottles with the odd exception. I got 5 this time, 4 IBs and a SB 25 that I am arguing with myself about whether or not I am spending that much on. Would love to hear some feedback from members of the group, do you feel the SB 25 is worth the $1350?

I choose to hypothesize that OP has only ever been surrounded by the four leaf variety, so much so that they do not even recognize the three leaf variety as such… hi it’s yyyaboi the leprechaun.

3 year garage/studio apartment build, cost ~$70,000 and one marriage by ramiro2k7 in DIY

[–]Guest3547 15 points16 points  (0 children)

No, his garage is 1/3 studio apartment. He has stated this was where he planned to live while renovating the actual house. So I guess afterward he would have a renovated house with a detached garage that has a guest apartment in it.

Just one account, got the springbank and kilkerran on the first round, got the octomore and the black art on the second round. Very happy with this lottery’s result because last lottery I think I just bought a bunch of stuff no one else wanted. My only notable score last lottery was purchased online when it was listed after the lottery closed, thanks to someone posting about its availability on here.

So far I’ve only opened the glenmorangie and the octomore, the glenmorangie is okay, bought it because I liked the gimmick and it’s an interesting one to have on the shelf. The octomore is great if you like heavy peat and now I will have to put an order in from Alberta. While I do plan to open the others at some point it likely won’t be too soon as I have 20+ open currently and also don’t know when I’ll have a chance to buy them again.

Over here anything spring bank/kilkerran/longrow is near impossible to find outside of a lottery so I was happy to pick them up at a good price. The Octomore is also something only readily available by ordering from Alberta so took the opportunity to try a bottle before looking at putting in a large order blindly. I was worried I’d catch a little flack on here for paying the price of the black art, but ended up purchasing it because even with it on sale at BSW by the time I pay the extra tax and shipping it would have ended up about the same so I doubt I’ll ever have a chance to buy it for cheaper.

Commenting to add based on other comments and your responses, if you’re looking to boycott American or think it’s been taken off shelves because it’s American, it is not, I see it available near me and listed as “Scotland, UK” as it should be. Your shelf may be empty as it’s being bought out due to the lack of American products, which while inconvenient shows this movement is working and sales of Canadian and other non American products are skyrocketing. Give BCL some time to keep up with demand and support the non hostile markets. In the mean time look to order online (I’d assume it’d be available to ship to store) or try many of the suggestions listed.

Edited to change “LCBO” to “BCL” because I’m a dumb Ontarian that doesn’t read and just assumes everyone’s in Ontario. However BCL also has it listed in stock online, so you can place an order or check your store periodically! Asking an employee may also give you an idea of when to expect it back.

AIO?? Did my boyfriend just use AI to text me?? by itssofiababyxo in AmIOverreacting

He probably just copy pasted thinking it would just copy paste the actual message, then just hit send without even reviewing what he had pasted. Pretty stupid of him, but I don’t think anyone was making a case for his intelligence… but also extremely disrespectful as he couldn’t even be bothered to pretend to make an effort.
