How many open bottles do you normally have?

by **Willie JJ** » Tue Nov 24, 2009 10:31 am

I found another couple of open ones. That makes 33.

by **Ganga** » Tue Nov 24, 2009 6:49 pm

Yea Willie! Two more bottles; should get you through a chat session or two.

And Nick he "found" the bottles.

by **daveski** » Tue Nov 24, 2009 8:52 pm

I try and have about 5 open at any one time, allows for differing moods to take you to the right dram.

I have also got something decanted, but i can't remember for the life of me what it is - might be right for a blind tasting once i get over this cold

by **Willie JJ** » Tue Nov 24, 2009 9:11 pm

Cynic!

I found them because when I did a count up the other night I never thought to look on the desk upstairs. I noticed them on the way past this morning. There may be others kicking around, but I think that's them all.

You're such an inspiration. Finished the Glenlivet 12 last week and the Sig Strathmill 1988 on Friday. Probably finish a couple more off between now and New Year's eve.

I'm glad I haven't been paying too much attention to you guys and the clearing out process. My liver would not thank me but I do have too many open :oops:

by **mikeymad** » Thu Dec 03, 2009 12:08 am

picking them up and knocking them down... good work Nick...

Cheers,

It would seem that Nick is working his way towards a mass opening.

After all he has stated his open bottle limit is 100. :wink:

by **Willie JJ** » Thu Dec 03, 2009 12:51 pm

Yeah that's a lot of corks to pull at once Nick. Should be a good night.

I'm down to 27 open now.

by **Willie JJ** » Sun Dec 06, 2009 11:40 pm

It is sad LSD, but there still seems to be a fair bit of it kicking around here despite reports of its demise.

by **Willie JJ** » Tue Dec 08, 2009 11:59 pm

Mac 10 finished now. Down to 26 open and Mrs. Willie is looking increasingly happy at the tidiness in the whisky room.

by **Reggaeblues** » Thu Dec 10, 2009 2:25 am

I usually have a LOT more open!

Right now i have:

Ardbeg 10
JW Green
Jim Clark Glen Moray SC edition 4, a red wine casked 9 YO that reminds me of a subtler Abunadh...
Longrow CV
Lagavulin "Elements of Islay"Lg1 - Lagavulin syrup!

Used to have about 20-25.

No clue how many I have open at the moment. But the Laphroaig 10 went down in a drizzle of glory. So at least three have bitten the dust in the last month or so.

by **Willie JJ** » Sun Dec 13, 2009 2:26 pm

Had a good clearout last night:

Golden Cask Bladnoch 17yo 55%
G&M Lochside 91-07
Laphroaig 15yo
Laphroaig QC
Sig Glenisla 28yo 48.8%
Old Pulteney 17yo
MM Glenlossie 11yo 46%
Sig MacDuff 24yo 46%

I guess that's me down to 18 open bottles now.

by **Ganga** » Sun Dec 13, 2009 6:40 pm

Holy cow. It's a natural disaster at Willie's. Hm, wonder what FEMA's plans for recovery are?!

by **Willie JJ** » Sun Dec 13, 2009 11:06 pm

Ha ha very funny.

I've just been collecting a lot of bottles in the cupboard that didn't have anything very much left in them so I've been trying to clear them out before Christmas. Then i can open some new stuff.

by **Wave** » Mon Dec 14, 2009 12:37 am

Me too Willie just never seems to work out that way! :lol:

Cheers!

by **ClubSmed** » Mon Dec 14, 2009 9:59 am

Finished my Glenmorangie 10 years old which takes me down to 24 full sizes bottles open

I'm a man on a mission Tom. Only the hangovers will slow me down.

Willie is the Terminator...

Cheers,

by **Ganga** » Tue Dec 15, 2009 7:42 pm

Why is Willie reminding me of October? :shock:

What was 15/16 bottles in a weekend Mikey?

by **Ganga** » Thu Dec 17, 2009 4:31 pm

165 yo? Wow.

Hm, thinking this weekend might be time to open something.

by **johan brugge** » Mon Dec 28, 2009 12:24 am

It seems like you're getting a move on, Nick. I, on the other hand, seem to be opening more and more bottles lately. Good thing I buy doubles.

by **dramtastic** » Wed Dec 30, 2009 8:43 am

As many as I can afford, whether 1, 100, or 1000.

by **andyt** » Wed Dec 30, 2009 10:53 pm

70 at the moment, target of 75 for hogmanay.

by **andyt** » Thu Dec 31, 2009 9:37 pm

71 Bells Signature Blended Malt.

by **andyt** » Thu Dec 31, 2009 10:01 pm

72 Grouse Vintage Malt 1989 12YO

by **Willie JJ** » Thu Dec 31, 2009 10:49 pm

I've opened a couple this week but I think I am down to 14 open.

by **andyt** » Thu Dec 31, 2009 11:34 pm

73 Gentleman Jack

by **andyt** » Fri Jan 01, 2010 12:53 am

74, Poit Dhubh 12

by **orangedogofglory** » Fri Jan 01, 2010 2:25 am

17 currently - will be 18 in a few minutes... :thumbsup:

I've got about 4 or 5 that are one or two drams away from being finished off - so I'll just HAVE TO go pick up a few more. The misses will understand that, I'm sure.

by **clicker7** » Sun Jan 03, 2010 4:14 am

Cleaned up a bit, and used a couple that I didn't like for Toddys, and now I'm down to 14.

Joseph

by **orangedogofglory** » Sun Jan 03, 2010 4:55 am

Back down to 17 with the completion of A'bunadh batch 18 :dead:

by **ClubSmed** » Thu Jan 07, 2010 11:36 pm

Up to 25 now after opening another bottle yesterday
