    Sticky: Re: BOTM 4/13: Old Grand Dad 114

    I recently purchased my first bottle. I find it very hot, even with water. Neat or with a splash I just can't get into it. It was a little better on ice. Where it really shines though is in an Old...

    Re: New from Cincy

    Welcome. The NKY-Covington-Newport-Bellvue area is bourbon heaven. I live an hour away, but try to hit the area once a month or so.

    Re: New member that's new to Bourbon.

    OWA-Weller 12 vatted is referred to on here as the "SB blend". It is my go to daily pour. Sometimes though, as a change of pace, I enjoy a vatting of Makers and M46

    Re: New member that's new to Bourbon.

    Welcome, always good to see Buckeyes on here, especially Daytonians. Century Bar is about as good as it gets in Ohio. I second the notion of trying a wheater, unfortunately Ohio is pretty desolate...

    Re: Another Buckeye here

    Not sure how I missed this post. Welcome. Phil T is right, TPS is our somewhat nearby oasis. Ohio is improving though, slowly, but improving nonetheless.

    Sticky: Re: BOTM 10/12: Larceny

    I agree. Not bad, but not great. It is growing on me a little after a month's worth of air, but it will probably remain a "nice" midweek pour, a change of pace from OWA. Luckily for me, I don't pick...

  10. Re: BOTM 2/11: Old Rip Van Winkle 10 yr 107 proof

    I have found this bourbon to improve significantly after the bottle level getting near half and open for months. I have a 40% full bottle opened last fall that is now fantastic.
  11. Re: I just dumped a bottle of EC12 down the drain

    I'd never really thought about it until reading your post, but I'm a fan of peaty Islay single Malts, but with bourbon I have a bit of a sweet tooth, preferring richness above spice and dryness. And...

    Re: I am a bad friend

    My preferred method is to pour both into the bottle, hand it to a buxom woman, then have her jump up and down while holding the bottle. Win/win.

    Re: I am a bad friend

    SB blend, but instead of 50/50, maybe 70/30 W12 to OWA to get more wood influence.

    $13.95 in Ohio. Not much oak presence, but very smooth, not much burn even neat at 101. Pretty sweet, big mouthfeel, a lot of corm on the nose. The aroma/flavor combination while drinking reminded me...
