Welcome JR! Always nice to see a "neighbor" stop by.

Howdy frayed! Always nice to have
another local member join the group.

I haven't tried the K/S bottling but will say that while the JDSBs
can vary a bit in taste, most aren't half bad. If you like JD, you
may want to consider picking one up as the "private" picks do...

Welcome to the group, Tom. Nice to see another local boy here.

Call me a glutton for punishment but when I read a statement like
the above, it makes me want to try it just to see if it's that bad.
(Not that I'm doubting - I'm sure it's bad - I'm just...

You can still use the "Insert Image" button - when you hit reply,
it's the fifth from the right (little square "mountain" button) - but
a URL is needed for posting images that way.

Hey Reg,

According to the RVW facebook page, the CA allotment shipped
on April 11 so you might wanna put out some feelers if you're really
interested. Don't be afraid to "settle" for the PVW...

Heh, that's putting it mildly...

Welcome aboard!

Add Weller Special Reserve to the list as well!

Welcome Nick. I'm from WNY as well - just a little north of you
and agree with dbk that Buffalo does have a decent selection,
especially for $50....

Maybe offer up some of your notes on the ones you sampled during your
test or buy something new and let us know what you think of that.

Stick around for a while - you might come to like it here!

Agreed! Thanks for sharing, Ron.

Most interesting to me - the JDSB came in tied for 1st in round 2
but came in last in the finals. Did any of your participants offer
any comments afterward?

I have ordered Drinks by the Dram mainly for what nblair says:



I have ordered Scotch selections for my wife (but sneak in a
Bourbon every now & again) and find it to be a very nice way
to...

It's a variation of Herb Tarlek on WKRP when asked what he was doing
pouring something from one bottle into another - "Aging Scotch."

In your post #59, it looks like you forgot to include the [/quote] after
foxflyer5's text. If you hit the quote button and then start your reply
after the [/quote], you should be good.

Did you see my suggestions in post #53 back on page 6?
Would the "generic" mat suit your needs?

Put up or shut up. Good on you, Ron.



I don't know HH/Larry but if you say he's OK, then fine. My problem
is his "complaint" after the fact. To set up a tasting representing all ...

Give me a break. You have eleven posts in seven years. He posted
and asked for input and members responded. This thread was started
in Oct. 2010 and you're just now calling for some...

The Bardstown Whiskey Society offers a Tasting Kit with tasting mats,
note journals, materials needed and "what not to do" tips. The generic
tasting journal (caution - PDF) might be of some use...

Hey Ron,

Looks like you have a great line-up - I would love to be a part of
the tasting panel for this event!

I haven't tried some of those you've included so I can't offer any
suggestions...

I'm down here in Western NY (near Buffalo) and back in the day,
I was able to talk a driving friend into heading up to more than one
concert at Copps Colsium. Always had a great time up there...

I guess the obvious answer would be Maker's 46 (94 proof).
There is a nice thread on that one here if you'd like to read
about it.

Other than that, I agree with hectic on the OWA.

Welcome...

Assuming availability isn't a factor, maybe toss a Rye into the
mix just to see how it does. I'm sure others will have a few
suggestions for you as well.

Your event sounds like a fun time & I...

On a related note, Thomas H Handy Sazerac Rye (129 proof) is the
#2 Whisky in the World 2011 according to Jim Murray's Whisky Bible.

I was at one of these this past wknd. I found 4 bottles of Weller
Centennial (Premier store bottling) and picked up some Virginia
Gentleman. They are nice stores with a decent selection.
