I am hardly a hard liqour person. I can drink tequila (Patron anejo and Cabo Wabo ONLY)and I will never turn down a drink of Crown Cask 16. However, I was doing some reading in the forum about all the different flavor profiles depending on the region the scotch came from. So to my surprise at the store on base they had Glenlivet 12. I figure what the hell. I actually wanted to buy some Ginger ale just in case I absolutely hated it but I dont think there is any at all on this base!!! Whatever.
So I got to drinking. of course no decent glasses, had to settle on a juice glass. I had no idea if the drink was supposed to be in the fridge or room temperature. I found out after a while that I do not like it straight out of the fridge, even after letting it sit for 5 min, and room temperature was way too peppery up front. I guess that could be a way to describe it, I still have no idea what I am drinking yet! However the finish was subtle with no alcohol bite at the end. Now I need to find a bottle that has a sweeter taste at the end. Then again it has to be something Ican find here. I need to look into them custom ordering bottles to ship with their normal liqour order.
