Two dead soldiers



Yea, yea, spare me the bunko about drinking too much. My theory is the booze is a cheaper preservative than formaldehyde, and its self-serve too.

I finished the Laphroaig first, and the JW was a fast follower. I found the Laphroaig to have a very strong, earthy taste. Skilled reviewers have described the taste as peaty, but I have never eaten any peat, so I will stick with earthy. Regardless, it was excellent as long as you like a strong taste. The Johnnie Walker Blue was a gift (free booze is always best) from my old team at work (thanks guys!). In my humble, non-expert opinion, JW Blue is the best scotch made, or at least the best this blogger has ever guzzled.

Unfortunately, I will now take a step down in my drinking habits. Being the cheap bastard that I am, I was counting on Xmas gifts to re-stock my booze levels, but all I got for Christmas was a lone bottle of JW Black, which hardly compares to the Blue. Life sucks when you have cheap relatives!
