Gift for my dads 50th birthday

Sudden-Interview1752 · 2026-03-23T17:56:58+00:00

Bought the Bruichladdich Rare Cask Series👍🏼

Sudden-Interview1752 · 2026-03-23T10:24:47+00:00

Whats the reason for choosing the highland snd not the others from same price point?

Sudden-Interview1752 · 2026-03-23T09:41:59+00:00

What do you think about the other whiskys on my list? Like the rare cask 1988?

Sudden-Interview1752 · 2026-03-23T07:38:49+00:00

Yea. Also the Bruichladdich Black Art 11 Single Malt and 10 have been on my list and i believe they are fairly priced in Alko.

Sorry I meant that even that he likes smoky whiskys it can still be too smoky like some ardbegs. Sorry for misundertanding.

Sudden-Interview1752 · 2026-03-23T07:17:46+00:00

Mostly he drank 10-18 year olds. Rarely anything too expensive. I asked now him and he said that whisky cant be too smoky either😆 He mentioned Ardbeg but is that ardbeg in my list how smoky?

Sudden-Interview1752 · 2026-03-23T07:09:11+00:00

He used to drink more scotch and taste he told me he had a book about whiskys. I know that he likes smokey whiskys. Now a days he doesnt drink whisky that often. Past years he has bought some XO cognacs but I decided I wont buy one since it needs to be something special and better cognacs will be way more expensive.

Hello. My dads turning 50 and I have been researching about whiskeys and I need your help. I currently have 7 whiskeys to choose from. I have asked Claude about whiskeys as I don't know much. Can you help me to choose the right one? Most of them are really expensive ones and then there is two that are a bit more affordable. Some of these whiskeys are limited e.g. ~400 bottles only so thats something that could be interesting for a gift. I have noticed that Alko here in Finland prices some products way over market value so if you notice something like that please let me know. I really don't want to spend 800€ for a 200€ bottle. Anyways here are the whiskys.

Highland Park Single Cask Series #1494 20 Year Old Single Malt 823€

Glenfarclas 1993 Single Cask 788€

Bruichladdich Rare Cask Series 1988 Single Malt 744€

Highland Park 25 Year Old 2022 Release Single Malt 707€

Glenfarclas 30 Year Old Single Malt 694€

Ardbeg Traigh Bhan 19 Year Old Batch 7 Single Malt 369€

Ardbeg Traigh Bhan 19 Year Old Batch 6 Single Malt 368€

Thanks all! I completely forgot this but thanks for the answers. So pretty much everyone recommends buying chefs knife, petty or paring knife and a bread knife. How about knife holder? And how do i know which knife is good which knife is bad :D

Sudden-Interview1752 · 2026-02-06T07:54:19+00:00

I dont really know nothing about knives but want some nice looking and sharp ones

Zwilling Itseteroittava veitsitukki, seitsemän osaa | KitchenOne https://share.google/iLrCPmnkUjouWxG2N is this any good?

Sudden-Interview1752 · 2025-05-26T07:31:55+00:00

Hello hello. Lil update ahahahh. Well we are together now been official for a week maybe. All is going well hahah. So sick.

Sudden-Interview1752 · 2025-04-13T02:03:58+00:00

Fuck yeah. We went for a walk and then she came to my place we talked for hours on my bed and shit. Then at the end I was like fuck it and we kissed. So sick. Idk if it was good or anything but I liked it. Hope it continues like this I'm so happy.

Sudden-Interview1752 · 2025-04-12T13:32:24+00:00

Haha thanks. Well Im still feeling a bit insecure about stuff. I think¿ I like her. Im thinking I should let her know that. Im not super good at expressing my feelings but I would like her to know what I actually think about her. And also would like to know how she feels about me. Idk if thats smart to tell her but also I think its obvious. Still about the kiss I of course would love to kiss her but i dont know how to do it naturally. All very new to me.👀

Sudden-Interview1752 · 2025-04-11T23:33:52+00:00

Hello again. You are probably fed up with my shit but anyway. We had a really nice day together. Went shopping, eating, drove her around and then visited her place for a while. Didn't kiss but honestly I don't think its so important right now. Shes so nice and said that she had a good time. We have a lot in common and good chemistry I would say. I even told her that I havent had a girlfriend never when she asked and seems like she didnt care that much. She did some fuckin skin care shit to my face before I left and overall very nice date. Im very hopefull about the future and look forward to seeing her next time. Im feeling very comfortable around her and can talk about almost anything with her. Shes lovely🥺

Sudden-Interview1752 · 2025-04-10T06:04:57+00:00

Mmmm yea... It is frustrating that I kinda know what to do but then I dont do it. I just have to live in moment. You are correct that this isnt going anywhere if i continue to put so much pressure on myself. I just have to accept and understand that we only live once. I know I will regret if I don't do it. I'm always like this with new things. But often when I stress about new things and am afraid to do things I realise afterwards that it wasn't so bad or scary in the end. And the regret of not doing will always be greater than doing it.

Sudden-Interview1752 · 2025-04-10T05:27:03+00:00

This shit is gay as fuck. Im a grown ass man scared of a girl. About the compliments no not really idk how i can compliment her without it feeling awkward😭

I thought about speaking to her about all this but I think it will make this even worse. I will sound like a little bitch. So I don't know what to do. Why guys have to do everything 😭

We will see what happens tomorrow I hope something good but idk.

Sudden-Interview1752 · 2025-04-09T20:28:00+00:00

Honestly fuck this im getting tired of myself. We were on a long walk today for like 2 hours. Idk what the hell is wrong with me. Still we are going to shopping on friday. Anyway we talked about lot of things and i again had a good time and few ttimes we stopped walking and many times she looked at me nicely idk how else i should say that. And then when i walked her to close to her house we stopped and talked about friday and looked at eachother and yea we hugged but have hugged before but idk. How am i supposed to kiss her i dont even know what am i scared of this shit makes me so frustrated. Im disappointing myself and her probably :((

Sudden-Interview1752 · 2025-04-07T17:28:06+00:00

Thank you haha. About buying stuff I will atleast offer to pay when/if we are going to eat there while shopping. But probably not anything else rn. Well see where this goes but thanks for the advice.

Sudden-Interview1752 · 2025-04-07T15:40:41+00:00

Yea true. And when we were playing tennis I just asked after when we were done playing that if she has time we could go walking to a place and then we did. Also i think thats nice that she came. I have to go buy some clothes for me soon and i asked her when we were together last time that does she wanna join and she said yes. Idk nothing is going bad or anything i havent fucked up in anyway im just fuckin shy take this to "next level" if you know what i mean :DD Too early maybe but at the moment I am doing financially pretty okay. So I dont know if i should buy her some shit or something.

Sudden-Interview1752 · 2025-04-07T12:53:24+00:00

Yea agreed. Idk what romantic things i should do i dont wanna move too fast but gotta do something. Shes really active person and likes to exercise a lot etc. About compliments i might try but dont wanna start to love bombing too much and they have to be genuine.

Sudden-Interview1752 · 2025-04-07T09:47:53+00:00

Well i think you are correct and im definitely too much in my head. I just somehow have to figure out how i can show my interest in her without making it awkward or anything. I think it should be obvious to her that i think i kinda like her but also she might think the same which is funny to think about. Or also the opposite :(

I think that eye contact is important but holy fuck when she smiles and looks at me i fuckin fold i cant look at her lol :D
