Re: Scotch's that wont break the bank
Lately, I've become very fond of Irish single malts. Try Tyrconnell single malt Irish at about $35/750ml. Bushmill's 10yr single malt is also very nice at a few dollars more a bottle.

Re: Tasting Scotch

Re: 2014 MLB Thread
I'm not really up to date in baseball, but have been a Cards fan my whole life.
I had the pleasure of going to Cards games in the latter 1960's when I was "ahem" slightly younger. I got to see...

Re: What beers are you enjoying II?
Been drinking some Anchor California Lager of late. Pretty tasty for a lager...plenty of hops & a nice finish.
Of course, looking forward to the Octoberfest season which starts up in August....

Re: Tatuaje Fausto Robusto Review
Am smoking a Fausto robusto right now, & it's a nice full bodied cigar, but agree with you completely. The FT166 I think is the short churchill? I find it to be a much more satisfying cigar.
