Birthday ? ?

[poker]

So, I was recently given a $100 LCBO gift card, and crisp new $100 bill for my birthday. No clue what to spend the $100 on yet, but I can get drunk and go on Amazon and see what arrives in a few days.

As for the gift card… a nice 12 yr old Scotch, and maybe a bottle of wine to finish off the card…. Or 3 bottles of say J&B, and a bottle of wine to finish off the card. Quality over Quantity is the dilemma.

Or… $200 bucks towards a Scotch I would never get myself in a million years???

Your thoughts…

 

[Ref]

Buy a $100 gift card and then keep buying different $100 gift cards with your gift card.

Your thoughts…

Single malt Dahlwinnie is my favourite, about $100.

Highland Park 18yrs is my favourite and it used to be less than $200. Now it’s over and I LOVE LCBO /s.

Get the $200.00. Bottle. A million years only comes around every so often. And get the T shirt

I've found my taste buds only go up to a certain point, and anything over that is wasted.
Thus, buy something upscale you would not ordinarily buy. Treat yourself.

But how much of a scotch aficionado are you? Can you find clear and convincing and otherwise unattainable joy in a 200 bottle you can't find in a 100 bottle?
If yes, maybe shoot for the $200. If unsure, go $150. If no, get the $100.

Words to live by. That's how I budget hookers.

My go to is the 12 yr Glenfiddich. The 10 yr McClellan was also nice. However, I do like the J&B now and then. For a blended, it’s good. I know it’s not everyone’s taste, but I like it.

Maybe I’ll go all Ron Swanson and pick up a bottle of Lagavulin, and cook me up 12 oz steak. Finish the night off with a stunner. I think I just planned out my New Years Eve.

I am a whiskey slob. I prefer a good blended scotch to the single malts. My go to is Dimple, or one of the upscale Ballentines.

But why limit yourself to Whiskeys. Cognac, Armagnac, Slivovic, etc etc

Last Bottle of Lagavulin in Niagara Falls…. It’s an 8 year old. NYE is going to be a decent night.

 

[Jasmina]

A bottle of Glenmorangie and finish off card with a wine would be my go to. And drunk amazon shop with the dough. Surprise gift in days following!

2 $50 bottles of rye, $100 to charity.

I knew some American business men. They thought Chivas Regal was the end all Scotch. PLONK.

The triumph of advertising. If going blended, johnny black tickles the taste buds...
