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.

The Dimple Pinch - 1.75L

It's no Johnnie Walker Black, but it'll do in a pinch. (See what I did there?) I picked up a Pinch a year ago. It wasn't bad. I like to keep a blend in the house just for when I want to knock back a whisky and not take myself too seriously. JW Black is my go-to whisky, but if it's good enough for Walter White, it's good enough for me.

I picked up the 1.75L bottle this time just because it's HUGE! If figured it would look really cool up on the shelf. Maybe one day it'll make a nice piggy bank!

Just to give you an idea of how much bigger it is (other than stating the obvious that it's 1L bigger), here's a side-by-side comparison with the standard 750ml bottle.

Still not convinced? Boom! Look at that!

It's so big it needs a handle.

This should last me a while. It's a pretty descent blend, but again, I prefer Johnnie Walker. At $68 bucks a bottle, they're pretty much the same price. I got this one this time just for the novelty of the bottle. Next time, I'll "keep walking".
