What bourbon are you drinking today? Autumn '12

My 17 yo looks like barrel 78 (that can't be right can it?). I suppose it could be a 1 rather than a 7, though. Anyhow, that one is about 112 proof.

Moved onto some FR 17yr GS barrel #18 after that and IMO it's a better bourbon. It had more texture and complexity and less heat...IIRC this was a lower proof barrel though...somewhere in the 106 range. Chris can you confirm seeing as you gave me the sample?

Barrel 18 is 101 proof and change. I like both the '12 LE SmB and the series of 16/17 year old gift shop barrels, but I completely agree with your assessment.

I'm fighting a head cold, so it's been OGD 114 for me for the last few days. Best cough medicine money can buy-- and it opens up my sinuses better than any OTC decongestant. Doesn't hurt that it tastes great, too.

Maybe a little hot tea with it and wrap up in a bunch of blankets Get that bourbon and tea working together along with sweating do that cold right out.

A.Bowman 17yr CS and GTS '10 after work with friends a great finish to an otherwise mundane day.

Back into a bottle of TPS select 1792 that had been idle for too long.

GTS while winding down for the evening. Made my cranberry relish, prepped my sweet taters, got my turkey in the brine and am now enjoying a fine KY refreshment.

A small pour of Cheesy Gold Labeled WT12. Such wonderfully controlled spice and with hints of sweetness.

A very nice way the start a Thanksgiving Day morning.
