Cinnamon sticks, gluhwine, candied orange peels and burnt caramel… Sweet, viscous, simply delicious.

A 36yo 1980 Armagnac from Domaine de La Poste bottled by Darroze. A beautiful floral and citrusy brandy with tons of tropical fruit notes. It's fresh, minty, not too sweet and not too woody despite of being in a cask for 36 years. #darroze #DomainedeLAPoste #armagnac #brandy #frenchbrandy #france #ArmagnacTénarèze #maltalternative #whiskyalternative #whisky #whiskey #viski #tirebouchon #whiskyblog #whiskyblogger

“For Delilah I want a sort of distilled Jean Simmons, Vivien Leigh and a generous touch of Lana Turner…” These were the words of great Cecil B. DeMill when asked who he would like to cast for the role of Delilah for his masterpiece Samson and Delilah. And shortly after he ended up casting Hedy Lamarr for the role… When I first read this it immediately made me think of John Glaser’s new blend he created for Delilah. It is heavily textured, sweet, spicy and packed with dried fruits. A solid 90 points whisky. Get one before it disappears for good. Only 8,520 bottles are made available. #compassbox #compassboxwhisky #johnglaser #delilahschicago #delilahs #scotch #scotchwhisky #blendedwhisky #blendedscotch #whisky #whiskey #viski #tirebouchon #whiskyblog #whiskyblogger
