Thank you @paddockjudge! Such a charmer! Enjoyed a bit of John J. Bowman at dinner. Reminds me why I love bourbon. Hoping our paths cross again in this new year.

Happy Birthday @Dramlette! May the coming year be the best yet. I shall finish my bottle of Parker's Heritage 4th edition (a birthday bottle for me, which was opened on my 'big day' in 2011) in celebration.

The warmest of wishes of wishes from my wife and myself on this singular of occasions. Enjoying bourbons tonight? Sounds fantastic! With my Lagavulin finished I will move on to a Barrel Proof bourbon. I hope you had a lovely day and that the year to come is even more amazing then the last.

@pudge72, @nock, @wills, @mrgargus,@cpstecroix, many thanks for the birthday greetings! Still celebrating, this evening with Francophile friends, and not a drop of whisky, but a delicious French 75 cocktail and lovely Chateauneuf de Pape. One must be well rounded and cosmopolitan in one's taste and experience. This Universe is infinite. So mote it be!

Tomorrow @Victor is your birthday; on the eve of this special occasion, I've prepared a tasty flight which you would certainly enjoy: Jameson Gold Reserve, Canadian Club 20 YO, Four Roses 125th Anniversary Barrel Strength, and Macallan Cask Strength. Happy Birthday my friend, à la santé!

Happy Birthday, @Victor. I am drinking a hearty glass of PC6 in honor of your life and your most excellent taste and intellect as a connosr. Cheers, my friend! April 28th is a very good day to drink with friends and family!

@Victor,
In honour of your birthday tomorrow and in somber commemoration of mine yesterday, I'm hosting a whisky tasting at which I plan to offer 5 whiskies, 3 of them cask strength. Of course, the people who come may bring something to try, or we may change the agenda as a group but I will personally be drinking the following in your honour, and possibly in this order:
Forty Creek Heart of Gold
Amrut Cask Strength
Aberlour A'Bunadh batch 45 (to match my new age)
Springbank Cask Strength (or Claret Wood if there is demand for it)
Ardmore Traditional Cask
I look forward to meeting you at the Spirit of Toronto!

Claret wood is more interesting I think than just the Springbank Cask Strength, which is also quite good, but not as nuanced. Happy Birthday, Nozinan! I've just gone through my second bottle of Claret. Have one more left

@talexander Happy Birthday. Here's hoping this next year brings you good health and much happiness. Celebrating 5/29 with Old Pulteney 21 Year old...a generous pour for a generous fellow.

@paddockjudge @talexander
Am I to understand that you both share a May 29 birthday? Wow! And both on CONNOSR....
Well, I have no guarantees I can hoist a dram in your honours tomorrow but I raise the remaining 2/3 of the dram of A'Bunadh I poured myself 2 days ago and couldn't finish, I raise it to you both.

@paddockjudge Happy Birthday! Just quaffed the sample dram of Octomore Comus 4.2 in your honour. It was very interesting. A singular whisky that met my expectations. Peat, linament,licorice,smoke with an oily consistency. I am not a white wine drinker so could not pick out the Sauterne casks but this was a very rich experience. Glad you are getting older. Jonesz

@Jonesz, life is good. My wife is scolding me for having so many bottles of whisky on hand. I've been ordered to empty some. Life is good.

Thanks to all for the wonderful selection of birthday drams and making an already great day even better. @Nozinan - Cask strength are my favorite. @bwmccoy- "Bottled essence of summer" is exactly half my age, you should have two.

Happy Birthday to Dramlette! A toast to you with Alberta Premium Limited Edition 30 years old, only because I don't have a 29 year old whisky. Cheers!
