(Part 2) Top products from r/ScotchSwap

After making the sazerac [recipe] (http://www.reddit.com/r/bourbon/comments/1zj2b1/happy_mardi_gras_rbourbon/) /u/NJWhiskeyHunter shared over at /r/bourbon yesterday (thanks, it was delicious!), I thought I'd offer samples of my [Vieux Carre] (http://imgur.com/GNEd9eM,qGltC1o,Rro2ChH,13vmdRg#1), should anyone want some for cocktails but not spring for an entire bottle. I use it in a small spray [bottle] (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B006XDGPKC/ref=oh_details_o04_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1) which would make a 2oz sample go pretty far for making sazeracs.

I'm open to anything you would like to offer, but have been wanting to try more Scotch and world whiskey to expand out from bourbon/rye. I've listed a few that may be appropriate based on price.

• Balvenie 12
  
• Bunnahabhain 12
  
• Aberlour ?
  
• Glenfiddich 15
  
• Redbreast 12
  
• Glenlivet 15
  
• Laphroaig 10
  
• Yamazaki 12
  
• an Isle of Jura

Totally agree about this! There is actually a great book on this called Confident Pluralism

Isn't it interesting how we are so often afraid/ reluctant to talk about so much of the stuff that shapes our values and weighs on our thoughts?

It's this air rifle, in good shape I don't see any scratches can toss up some pics of your actually interested. https://www.amazon.com/Marksman-Beeman-Silver-Bear-Riffle/dp/B000VLJC8Y

I use this heat gun heats up to 900 degrees, push the shrink as far down as it will go on the bottle, turn it on and spin the bottle. Perfect every time.

It takes around 5 seconds to shrink it so no damage to the whisky, also the shrink reacts very quickly to it.

I had one of these already for electronics and R/C airplane repairs. You may find a cheaper one at an electronics store.

I have a few of these, they will hold more bottles than I could possibly have. I just thought it was cool that there was a single purpose item out there. Looks cool.

I use a roll of Post-It tape/notes. They stick well and come off easily when you need them to. You can find them here.

Looking to try and expand on one collection by using another. The idea I had was if you are wanting to do this we can set up a delivery for my address from amazon and then I can ship the bottle as usual.

Considering where this is posted, I have to recommend A Whisky in Monsterville, the interactive whisky thriller - I recently completed my quest to taste all the whiskies listed in the book...

Don't bother including me in the freebie giveaway, but will PM regarding our swap that was put on hold.

Hahah. I did recently order one of these but not sure it will help.

We don't buy the samples, we make them ourselves from our collections using something like these.

pro-tip: get some austrian pumpkin seed oil and drizzle on top next time.

Pyrex measuring cup.

Never had a problem with it.

Here's the one I bought: Pelican Carrying Case for Multi-Purpose, Black (1170-000-110) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0038VETHS/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apap_LcgW94vIcL9tK

It's got easily removable foam that you can use to cut to size.

With these.

Yellow lab? It's like whoever programmed them put all their stats in charisma and forgot everything else. Such sweet animals.

My mom used to read a book to me called Dog Heaven when I was a kid and wanted a dog more than anything else. Shit that book always got me to tear up.

EDIT: Screw it, bought it on Amazon for you. It'll be there Monday. RIP Madison <3 and again, sorry for your loss bud.

I really can't recommend DMSO followed by a long soak then rinse in distilled water.
