Balblair (I have only had the 99 and 03) is a great whisky, however I find it a bit sweet on the tongue with subtle hints of buckwheat honey as a lasting finish.
Now that you mention it, it is kind of sweet, but not overpoweringly.

I was buying Kahlua for the banana bread tomorrow and the LLS had smaller bottles of the Glenlivet and Bulliet for sale. A good chance to sample those. Usually I drink beer.
Imagine mixing all of thos together in one drink! It would be the MOAB, Mother of All Boilermakers! Are there any hardcores out there still drinking the real man's drink?

The owner at Heinis Gormet ordered me some of my favorite Barley Wine! It's aged for a year in wine barrels and its recommended that you let it rest for another year. 11.8% ABV, its only made once a year and last year I couldn't find any. I'll put two 4 pks away but I'm enjoying one this evening!!
