IMO RR BIB does have many bourbon characteristics while some other ryes in the price range can come off as lighter (JB rye) and fruiter (WT rye -- think green apples) than bourbon. If you like...

Welcome aboard. I'd be remiss if I didn't also suggest Old Grand Dad BIB or 114. Great stuff -- even without (the low) cost factored in.

Ah -- the war of attrition. Genius.

One way to justify it is that one bottle of bourbon has about 15-20 pours in it (depending on big you like your shots).

A bottle of wine has 5 pours in it, so bourbon has 3 to 4 more pours than a...

So has anyone compared the Old Weller Antique and the WSR? I know I can just buy some and see for myself, but I've currently got a lot of the Antique and don't know that I would prefer a softer,...

I don't know anything about forcing anyone to do an order but I'd love to get in on a group order of Four Roses (never having tried any!).

I see that the 80 proof rittenhouse rye is available at northgate and downtown. Is this the BIB version you speak of or is it the 100 proof version? Is the 80 proof version any good? Mt Vernon is...

Awesome -- thanks for the heads up. How much is the Saz jr? Sounds like you're a rye fan. I need to get some!

My smoker is a "Great Outdoors" brand (stainless version). I pasted in a link below but not sure if it will work (I'm not good at this stuff). It runs off propane and thus isn't a true "pit" but I...

I'd definitely be down for a tasting at my place sometime. Of course we'd need to have some slow smoked pork shoulder and such to do the drink justice.

As a quick aside, one of the best...

Hello,

I've always enjoyed bourbon more than any other spirit but hadn't really experimented much (typically drank Maker's Mark on the rocks or Jim Beam in mixed drinks). After moving to WA...
