Speaking of special occasions…

There is justice in the world. LOTR:ROTK swept the Oscars… I think that calls for a celebratory tot.
I’ll have to break out the good stuff. Good thing I stocked up on the single-malts last year – I have options.
UPDATE, 12:40am: Oh, my.
Among the acquisitions I’ve made is a nice 12 year old, The Macallan. This one is special, though, because it came with a 50ml (about 1.6 ounce) miniature of the cask strength (i.e., undiluted) elixir. Normal scotch is usually around 80-90 proof. Out of the cask, this was 115 proof.
And, because it was undiluted, the flavor was splendid. Utterly delicious. I’ll open the full-sized bottle some other day.
You’ve awoken the green-eyed monster lurking in the nether recesses of my subconscious.
