I've never owned one, but some of my friends have them. It's awesome for group activities and party games.

Basically has been dead since November '08, when Wade Arnold left to go work on Zend AMF.

Not the easiest thing to get going, but easy once it's set up. Recommended by Adobe, this has the best momentum behind it currently.

Some of my foodie friends swear this is the best restaurant in the city, and if it's not, it's darn close. The bass was perfectly textured, the monkfish had a delicious spiciness from chorizo oil, and the hazelnet souffle was accompanied with a mesmerizingly interesting basil sorbet. Very pricy, but worth it.

I've had a few of Balvenie's varieties before, and they're usually pretty good, but I'd never seen the 17-year Rum cask until the other night. I had it with dessert, and the richness of the hazelnut souffle brought out the smooth sweetness in the whisky dram. I wouldn't want to drink it all night, but perfect for an apertif or to accompany dessert.

Aged in sherry casks, it's less harsh than most scotch. Perfect for those trying to get into scotch, but good for habitual drinkers also.

Just tried this for the first time the other day. One of the few single malts from Campbeltown, it's a nice balance of peat and malt.

You love it or you hate it. I love it. When I order it, I get "that smells like medicine." If it's medicine, may I always be sick.
