Infectious....

Just getting PLOWED on Angel's Envy... nuff said.

Angels Envy round up.. glencairn - very nice but sweet, 'whiskey glass' smoooooth as silk - drinks way too easy. noser - the best balance of good nose, palate, and finish.. going back to 'whiskey' glass... put a hurt on it

Oh missed that ... good call...

--> Angel's Envy Bourbon (port finish) 43.3% - noser

I did!!.. same thing happened... switching glasses...!!!

and now that is gone... this glass must be defective...

wow the 'whiskey' glass just poured right down... 50ml gone -- pouring another 50ml...

Now from the "Whiskey Glass"

First up - --> Angel's Envy Bourbon (port finish) 43.3% - glencairn Going pretty good so far Al... sweet on the nose - finish is very nice and mid palate. may have a little more in here until switching.. ) Mikey

New Angel's Envy three ways (glasses) --> Angel's Envy Bourbon (port finish) 43.3%

Yalumba - Muscat - 18% Thick - I think that I will make some bacon to go with it!

Nice one Mike.. Nickel Creek - Why Should The Fire Die? Adding image --

Need to give the Feelies a try little afternoon tunes: Paul Mac and the boys - Band on the Run

I have seen the Venturi one at Costco recently.. I just thought of them as more of a gimmick. I have been decanting wines for many years, and always have seen the benefit of the wait time (sometimes hours). But after reading the Amazon reviews and looking at other sources, I may give it a try. I hardly do anything to my white wines (other than the aggressive glass swirl, and down it goes). It is not that much of an investment to give it a try (and Costco's return policy is really easy). I have tried the little bottle top kind, and it did not seem to make much difference to my palate. Cheers, Mikey
