We to a couple distilleries and decided I like Redbreast 12 year old, straight. Went to Teeling and enjoyed the stuff. Had a good time at the Guinness brewery and enjoyed eating lunch there. We to a place called the Whiskey Reserve in Dublin and they had a bottle of Pappy Van Winkle 23 year old. I was $400 a shot or you could buy the rest of the bottle, about 80 percent full, for $7500. Needless to say I did not buy any. Have been able to buy the Redbreast here in Oklahoma. Parkhills in Tulsa carries several versions, 12 years old and up. McNellies Bar and Grill has it as a top shelve option. I love it, but only drink it with rare friends.

Had a get-together with a bunch of guys from school today. Back in the day we had a couple guys that were from New Mexico and when they'd come back from home they'd bring Mezcal which is a tequila relative from Oaxaca. This stuff always had a worm in the bottle and there was always the chatter about eating the worm. I honestly don't know if anyone ever did. I know I didn't. So today one of the guys brings a bottle of Mezcal he's had since school, about 45 years back. He cracked it open and we had a taste. Didn't get anywhere close to the worm. BilletHead 1 John
