Is that just those locations?

I've seen it at the Heritage/Deerfoot Meadows location over the past month or two everytime I go in.

Thanks for sharing, I will definitely go check that out

Anyone tried the Canadian Club 40 yet? I'm interested, but can't bare to spend $200 on a Canadian Whiskey because I have bought into Scotch snobbery....

Haven't tried it yet but it is on sale at Sobeys/Safeway starting today at $189. I think KWM and Willow Park were in the $230 range.

I picked up a bottle of the Nikka coffey Grain whisky at Costco while in Hawaii a couple weeks ago. Haven't cracked it open yet. Anyone else had this before?

Stocked up the bar today.

How would you compare the Oban to the Balvenie?

Last pic of my top two shelves (the bottom two are reserved for mixing alcohols). I have added a few more bottles since but have no pics...

How would you compare the Oban to the Balvenie?

I would say the Belvenie is a bit more sweet and fruitier... Not quite as deep. The Oban will give you a touch of smoke and more complexity.

Doing a bit of work for The Macallan, still shooting the Rare Cask bottle before cracking it, can't wait to give it a go!

I am on the tail end of my bottle. I quite enjoy it, sweeter than the other Nikka more reminiscent of a bourbon. Definitely will be buying another bottle.

I enjoyed some Royal Salute 21 Sapphire Flagon last night, delicious!

Willowpark has an online sale right now... this bottle is worth it

Just cracked the Oban tonight. Would say the Oban has a little smoke & a little peat, more bite then the Balvenie. The Balvenie is sweeter, smoother, with hints of caramel.

Picked up a Macallan 15 at Costco surprisingly enough. My favorite Macallan so far and I've had the 18. May pick up a couple more if there is any left. Slightly sweet but so clean and smooth and no bite with some orange notes.

I've always like the 15 more than the 18, and not just because the price difference, lol.

Got this for xmas, looking forward to cracking it open.

I love pretty much all the Ardbeg offerings! I currently have a Corryvrekan and the 10yo and both are.excellent. I really want to add the Kelpie and the OA to my collection as well! I finally finished off my Ardbog not too long ago and always have my eye out for another but it seems to be a tough find being a disco'd limited edition.
