I was drinking my whiskey like I'd drink most anything else - tip it back and swallow. Then I started taking smaller sips, letting it sit in the middle of my tongue and just wash over the sides...

I don't (I left about the time I was of legal age to buy :lol:). Richnimrod could give you some pointers - I know there is some place in Dearborn on Michigan Ave that had a decent selection, but not...
The OGD 114 is a great high-rye bourbon. EWBL is a rye bourbon, but not a "high-rye" persay (although a decent enough pour). I actually prefer it to EW 1783. Some others are Old Forrester - which...
Welcome to SB! Several other Michiganders there, including in your area (my old man - and I mean OLD - is in Downriver as well - Richnimrod; I grew up in the area before escaping Michigan). I'm...
Can't speak for Michigan, but the first reported "sightings" in Atlanta have been very recent - so it may be working its way through the system.
Welcome johan851! I used to find EWBL a bit rough as well, although in my case I learned that was due in part to the way I was drinking it. I've also found that my tastes change over time - so if...
Just stay back from the fire, and close your eyes really tight when you and the goat . . . well . . . aw shucks, we don't want to ruin the surprise!
There are some other members in your neck of the woods who can recommend good shops. The only one I know of on that side of town is the Dekalb Bottle House on Briarcliff. Small footprint, but...
Welcome to SB draiiinage, from another Atlanta-ish member! Definitely second wmpevans - check into the GBS meet-up in late June. Look forward to reading your posts and meeting you! What bourbons...
Welcome, Mike! As Jon said, several folks in your area that hopefully you'll get to meet up with and enjoy a few pours! Kentucky is beautiful country - you're wife should enjoy it :)
Welcome, Dan! Former Michigander here (born/raised in SE MI, downriver). Several great folks in your state - and one of the best things about this site is the chance to interact with people around...
Welcome to SB Josh!
Hey - it doesn't hurt to try. True story - I used the Amazon wish-list feature which lets you put items from other sites on your wish list, and got a Highland Park 12 for my birthday (hadn't ever...
Welcome! Wow - you're starting at the top and working your way down, not that there's anything wrong with that :lol: Everything you mentioned is typically some type of challenge to get (at least in...
I grew up in SE Michigan, and made it up to the UP a couple of times. Beautiful country, and really nice folks. Although, if someone didn't mention it, you could easily believe you drove into...
Say Yah to Da UP, eh! :-) Welcome from Georgia (and a former "troll")
Welcome from Georgia! Also a high-rye fan myself! What are some of your current favs?
Welcome aboard! In hindsight, I would recommend looking for 50ml, 200ml bottles of things you haven't tried and are interested in. A lot of stuff won't be available like that, but some stores carry...
Welcome from Georgia!
Welcome from Georgia! Never too late to discover the greatness of bourbon :-)
Greetings from Marietta! Welcome to the site! I'll bet I learn something new from this site at least once a week - it is a tremendous resource with great folks!
Welcome to SB Pete! Although as it has been stated - if you've been in chat, you're ahead of the curve! :grin:
Welcome! Looks like a pretty fine collection to me! I'd take quality over quantity EVERY time :grin:
Welcome ramblinman!
Welcome Sam! Former Michigander here - always glad to see the home state representing!
