I admit it: I'm a total geek. I love electronics, programming, 3D printing, 3D art, vintage Apple hardware, and whisky. I'm always juggling half a dozen projects. I also enjoy documenting it all: my successes, my failures, my experiences... and everything geeky along the way.

Highland Black Special Reserve - 8 Year

My parents were in town for my son's birthday. They just got back from a trip to Australia. My Dad saw this in a grocery store and wondered if it was as good as Johnny Walker Black. The only reason he bought it was because it was so cheap. He said it was half the price and wondered if it was worth trying. Hey, you never know.

A whisky for $20 bucks? Can it be any good? No, it is not. This is exactly what you'd expect from a store brand. It was pretty rough. Did we finish it? Yes. We. Did.
