Gary’s Favorite Spirits Of The Year 2021

Gary’s Favorite Spirits Of The Year 2021

The death of our friend Willie and the Holiday season did not give me enough time to write another entry to this blog the last few months. But here is the next installment.

At the end of every year all wine and spirit publications have lists of the “Best of the year”.

In that spirit, here is a list of spirits in no particular order, that I got to try and really loved last year.

 

Takamine - 8 Years Old Japanese Whiskey

Angel's Envy - Bourbon Finished in Port Casks - Private Selection Single Barrel 108 Proof

Angel's Envy is one of my favorite every day Bourbon. Since I got to pick the barrel this is one of my favorite bourbons of the year.

The Perfect Fifth - Highland Park 31 Year Old Orkney Island Single Malt Scotch

I got to try an exceptional whisky from one of my favorite Scotish distilleries, but it is as the scotish would say: it's a “wee bit” expensive:
