Buffalo Trace I am glad its easy to get another bottle.

Weller SR. Top value in my book. Paid $14. Sometimes difficult to get though as they get scooped up rather quickly.

Killed off the Weller Antique . . . maybe a WLWSR to replace it? Or open the last Antique in the bunker and wait till I make another trip to MA to restock?

A squat ORVW 10yo came to a sudden end this last week but fortunately his brother was on hand to take over... i'll post details of the laying to rest later if anyone is interested...

Probably going to kill off a half bottle of AAA 10 year tonight.


(not that impressive actually....it's a 200ml)

Elijah Craig 12 gave up his last gasp. I wasn't enjoying the latter stages of this bottle very much...then I twigged I had started drinking out of my glencairn that had recently arrived. Switched back to my curvy low-ball for the last pour...ahh! That's better!

Not sure if that's a crystal vs glass interaction or what but a remarkable difference in the flavour of the bourbon! That trick is going in my tasting notes for EC12!

My regular bottle of Weller SR gave up its last 2 and a half ounces in a Manhattan tonight. It was quite tasty.

Finished off my handle of ND OGD:BIB. I don't really enjoy the current OGD expressions that much but this stuff drinks like premium bourbon! Sucks, I have another but I can't remember if the tax strip broke before or after I bought it (This is the first thing I look at with an older bottle like that and I don't think it was broken when I bought it but when I got home I couldn't remember specifically checking that one... :/ ) so I'll probably never drink it. Maybe if I leave it open it can serve as an air freshener or something... :/

Just finished off a bottle of Four Roses Mariage. It was excellent stuff, albiet a little bit pricey at $70.00.

I've got a couple of drinks left in my bottle of Bookers, I save it for special nights, made an old fashioned with it the other day WOW.
