Oh I have a bottle of that knob….that’s Kentucky…right.

I like that stuff.

Yes, it's Kentucky. Another Jim Beam product. Great balance of spice and mint as rye's are hit-and-miss for me due to the spice but this has the best of both world's, with neither winning the overall battle. Will have to go back and buy a backup bottle as this is a local store pick.

First time trying Taconic and it’s not bad. Getting some honey and hot fudge from it (this is definitely a dessert barrel). Finish had a little bit of pepper and spice to it but drinks lower than 124 proof. Also, somewhat from the part of the state I'm from.

Two for Tuesday: Daniel Craig 9 year, 94 proof Elijah Craig vs Daniel Craig 5 year, 110 proof Old Pepper. Tonight’s winner is the Old Pepper. Higher proof but drinks below it, with no heat on the back end. Smooth with a little bit of pepper.

Two for Thursday: Sean Connery 12 year, 94 proof Elijah Craig vs Sean Connery 123.7 proof Woodinville. Today’s winner is the Elijah Craig. Leather, smooth, hints of spice and heat but very mild. A nice taste all the way through.

Hey Irish, I had some Baker's 7 last night. Goddamn, that shit was good lol. I'm gonna have some more tonight when some friends come over. Thank you for recommending it to me. Truly appreciated brother

Glad it enjoyed it and stock up on it my friend. In my top 5 for favorite bourbons!

Fresh crack Friday: Good Times Toasted Cherry and Good Times Toast Vanilla

First time experimenting. Poor Man’s Four Grain: 40% WSR, 40% EHT SB, and 20% OWA. Now we play the waiting game for 30 days.

Haven't posted a recent pickup in a while. This is what came in today: Bulleit Single Barrel. Pretty tasty that opens up well with a few drops of water added. Citrus and oranges.

Baker's 7 tonight

Nice! Enjoy it. That's in my top 5.

Cracked open this yute today. Very good. Gonna try to grab another bottle.

Stay puft my friends

It’s only Wednesday and this week already has me feeling like I’m on Death Row

First time trying these

That rug really tied the room together, did it not?

Raising a well deserved glass to this masterpiece that forever changed the horror genre 25 years ago today

Christmas came late but I'm just glad it came at all! Today's haul, all at retail.

What did you taste in that Col. Taylor?

If I could..I would have that rug and know exactly where I would put it.

Sorry DP, don't remember the tasting notes. Just remember it was the last of the 3 that night but the best. Very delicious!

Poor Man's Pappy: 60% OWA, 40% Weller 12, and 30 days. Tried a sample from a friend a few months back and now that I grabbed a backup bottle of the 12 yesterday, finally able to make my own batch.

Haven’t had many Barrell offerings but this pick was a homerun. The finish is definitely more complex than the palate and this is one to sip slowly, savor, and enjoy! Finished in German Ice Wine but it's straight fire.

Could have killed it but took it easy.

I dont always drink whiskey but when I do it typically a Jameson or variation.

Old Friend showed up late one evening to inform me his Mother died.
We killed half the bottle of Middleton he came with.

A good night for us and his mother needed the peace, she was 96 and not in her mind or body.

Sorry to hear about your friends mother DP

Thanks i12

She was amazing, what cook…i never ate Italian food like hers anywhere else.

We would go fishing and bring her the fish and she would prepare a feast for us.
She loved fresh caught fish,

She do an amazing Christmas Eve 7 fishes as well.

Wow, that sounds mouthwatering DP. Hopefully she passed along her recipes to keep the tradition alive?

Yes, so cool of you to think that.

My friend has been going to his mothers house early every Sunday morning for the last 5 years to cook with her and learn, rather than just show up and eat.

He was with me last night and left a full bottle of Jamesons behind , i told him to take it and it was not even popped open last night, I told him i have 5 bottles and he said Ill be back to drink some.

Good guy.

Salud ????

When you can’t decide which will pair better with the movie. Then realize it’s almost 3 hours runtime, so why not both? 2 fresh cracks!
