Plenty there to keep me happy. It looks like a nice watering hole.

It was a great place in the 1980's and 1990's, especially during the war. Business started to lag after the army and police forces were cut, gangs proliferated, and crime rose. By the time we sold the bar (after owning it for 19 years), we were still making a profit, but it was no longer worth it.
It was Barry "Ballad of the Green Berets" Sadler's watering hole.

I’m a big fan but been too busy as of late to enjoy it much. I did try my first Speyburn recently; good stuff, nice flavor and a bite to it. It went well with a soggy, cold night in the mountains by fire in some ancient leaky abandoned cabin eating trout, rice, veggies and sourdough. I got my first hangover in years though which made for a rough time up the trail the next morning. Nothing a little dip in a cold mountin stream couldn't cure later on.

I've bought a couple bottles of Speyburn in the last year or two, and liked it.

It is indeed, but there are an awful lot of unopened bottles there...

You wouldn't be happy with my collection mate.

It's pretty much entirely unopened......I'm obviously not trying hard enough.

I am rather fond of the Glenlivet; I give all my professors a bottle of it after each quarter.

Oban, Maker's Mark and Jameson are my 3 reliable whiskeys. You can find at least one if not all 3 in most hotel and airport bars.

I don't mean to be too forward, but we would be good friends. An 18 Yr Balvenie broke my Scotch virginity and it is still to this day my favorite.
