    Fret not, Jim. I was squarely home before I tested it.

    I’m not a big rum fan but really enjoy that.

    If it don’t bother me, it don’t bother me. Just leave me alone.

    To be honest, I just thought the bottle looked cool. 🤣

    It was very good, and just over $30 it was a good value. But you'd have to be Irish to really appreciate it, so sorry you're out of luck. I don't have a good palate for whiskeys but overall it was smooth and balanced. I paired that one w/ a Master Blend III and for whatever reason they weren't as good together as the Hyena and Glenmorangie.

    "Responsibly" and "moderation" need to be defined!!

    Probably different for
    the regular people VS the guys posting here.

    Don't let the wife know what you spend on guns, ammo or cigars.

    Can you blame them? As they say, rank has its privileges.

    Did they drink it or were they just holding it for a friend?
