The wine shop here where I go to university had a great bottle. It had pride of place in the room, and was dusty and unbought. It was a 1979 Chateau de Mons Armagnac.
It's been looking at me whenever I go there, and I finally bought it.
Glad I waitied so long, as they'd finally reduced it to £50.

Have you drunk it yet?
Do you recommend it?

Ohyes. It is by far the best Armagnac I've had in my life, it single-handedly brings hack happiness and contentment with the world.
It's beautiful, but I can't drink it whilst drunk. I'd feel terribly guilty, so I've now bought a good but less exceptional bottle for that purpose.

I have recently found my mothers wine cupboard, with alot of very old homemade wines. They were fantastic, I think it was 1996. you took a sniff and you were gone before you had even takena sip.

Nice. I am envious. The liquor stores near me suck, and the ones that suck less still don't have the things I'm looking for. Can't get some of my favourite scotches in this state. I know people who can get them, but arranging it is not nearly as quick as just going, handing a guy some cash, and taking the bottle home.
Over there you could find everything.

Yup. Which North American country are you from?
Also, aren't there shipping companies for Scotch? I know there are some very efficient chaps at LdF who ship absinthe the the USA in huge quantities.

I'm in the States.
Absinthe, I have. Though I could always use more. Even if there's not someone who does that with scotch, I can check into getting some absinthe.
Like I said, I have another friend who's got a personal collection comparable to that of the restaurant/bar I mentioned else thread. He can get it, it'll just take a little while.
