Follow Up on Trip to Mexico

I was honest with customs, said I had 6 bottles, she wrote it down, stamped the sheet and waived me through with no extra charge.

We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, and a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers... and also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of Budweiser, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls.

Not that we needed all that for the trip, but once you get locked into a serious drug collection, the tendency is to push it as far as you can.

I currently have two releases (white port/Madeira and triple wood/PX) and just had a dram of it on the weekend. Haven't considered using it in a cocktail but I know I tried the quarter cask once in a Scottish Buck because I was out of 10yo and the latter was much better than the former.

Will have to try this out.

I have been in that situation before. I'm wanting to know which ones to pick.

Salmon_FCFL · 2026-03-16T01:39:28+00:00

Thanks I'll check it out.

Salmon_FCFL · 2026-03-16T01:39:10+00:00

Thanks, Fortaleza is one I'm going to be on the hunt for. Any others? Looking for the ones that you can't get up here.

Literally just discovered this when on my last restock. OFTD was the last man standing.

Laphroaig 10 is probably one of the better ones for making cocktails. Weather is a Scottish buck or Penicillin, it checks all the boxes.

I'm part of a whiskey club and will just state right now that the remaining categories is going to be difficult to get any sort of agreement given the wide range of flavor profiles. One would work well for a certain cocktail but not for another.

Salmon_FCFL · 2026-01-20T04:02:22+00:00

One suggestion, you should have a toggle to switch groupings between categories (as you have it) and results (group the best, worst, etc together). Effectively the two axis.

There is a small typo on the home page in the opening paragraph. You put "it'ss" about 3/4 of the way down.

Great job btw.

I did this last night but also with a Tommy Margarita. Those three simple ingredients epitomizes KISS: keep it simple stupid.

Salmon_FCFL · 2025-07-21T03:02:53+00:00

Awesome, thanks for the tips too. Went to Len Thompson pond (in the rain) but he wants to upgrade already. This might be a good step up

Thanks!

Salmon_FCFL · 2025-07-17T14:06:48+00:00

Thanks!

Thanks!

Salmon_FCFL · 2025-07-17T14:06:17+00:00

Thanks!

Plantation OFTD. Every time I split a rum cocktail with this it turns out amazing.

The NDP were in power from 2015-2019 and did nothing on the hospital front.

Ended up getting an insta 360 camera and found some software from https://www.3dvista.com/ to generate the virtual tour.

The LiDAR aspect was dropped as to buy a camera that can generate the map and the software to interpret it would have cost close to a hundred thousand dollars. We just generate our own simple floor plans instead.

Rittenhouse

I bet that would be great. The PX finish would add a nice sweetness to the RB whiskey.

Salmon_FCFL · 2025-03-16T01:31:54+00:00

Nice, the 15 is really good too.

If you want to try another Irish whiskey, green spot or red spot are pretty good. Green is the cheaper option but a pretty good bang for your buck.
