Drove up to the Tahoe area to see my parental units and brought the RE 17-1 thru 3 and I forgot I had a bottle of the RE original. Poured all four and enjoyed them. In the end, the original RE may take the prize.

Me thinks I will tip a snifter of Eagle Rare backed up with bud light this afternoon...coupled with a fine stick from the island south of miami. Cheerz.
Last night I went with the latest RE 17 133.2, what a smooth pour. Then moved on to Binny's Weller 12.

Just picked up a bottle of Red Stag Black Cherry.
Interesting, lots of flavour, warms the gut!
Bourbon- not just for breakfast anymore!
The last out of my ETL bottle before dinner. I will not replace it, but it has grown a bit over time and I like the honey touch that I felt today.
Uncut 13 years HH bottled by Cadenheads after dinner and OGD114 as a nightcap right now.
Although the HH pour was powerful the Beam brand found the spot best tonight for sure.

We went with Blantons and FRSB last night. Both were excellent but most of the folks at the party raved about the Four Roses which I preferred as well.

Last night we went with two different Elijah Craig 18yo, one a Binny's selection the other a Party Source.
Also Evan Williams Single Barrel 2005, Willetts 3yo Party Source selection and Jefferson's Presidential Select 18yo Julio's Liquors selection with the company of SB.com members Josh, Amy and our spouses and children in the mighty mighty 313.

Almost polished off an entire bottle of FRSB with a few friends last night.
FINALLY! I found a bottle of FR that I really liked. I usually don't drink on the rocks, but this stuff was outstanding with a few cubes in it. A little too hot and spicy neat. Maybe this was my problem all along...
How do you find out which recipe is in the single barrel? I sure wish they would put it on their FRSB label.

I never had 4R1B on the rocks until a couple of years ago when having lunch with Jim Rutledge after selecting a barrel, he ordered it that way and then so did I, yeah it's a whole new taste.
