@tree has deleted his Bluesky account & is leaving ATProto after being dogpiled for pointing out that PDS balkanization is moderation at the wrong layer (similar to Mastodon) & despite contributing valuable code to the ecosystem. Not great! Good faith decentralization maxis like Tree are exactly the kind of people you want to engage not dogpile. https://gist.github.com/burningtree/d4aa172470293bdf2939c993cf48bbd4

Time for some more Octomore! All of these are $200+ a bottle and honestly, it's not insane, yes you can find better value at lower prices but these actually hold their own independent of the fancy brand (save for the last). 14.1 Taiwanese whiskey on nose, powerful electric explosion of peat on palate, like poprocks. Interestingly 750ml bottle while the others are 700ml 16.1 Smoked paprika on nose; honeyed smoke on palate. Very nice. 16.2. Sherry bomb on nose Candied nuts and rasins on palate with peat Reminds me of Redbreast PX+ smoke. I feel you could replicate with a 3:1 ratio of RB PX to Laphroaig Quarter Cask. 16.3 This is supposed to be the 'most premium' one but it kinda sucked, too mellow compared to the 16.{1,2}. I think this is the result of too much barrel aging mellowing it out.
