I guess we're a cult now. Hope this doesn't drive prices that much higher:

Nice!

It was actually 0810 EST, but I would have done the same at 0600.

A little bourbon in the AM is wonderful. I only do this when I have a vacation day. Down the road in retirement I see my bourbon consumption increasing. Imagine that will you.

Let me try.

(closing eyes. humming)

Hi hey, Hi hey
It's home from work I stay
sleep late and dream
then pour some Beam
And drink! All day!

Oh yeah. Sounds like a Plan.

Not even for breakfast?

Not even for breakfast?

Good bourbon is really good in the early AM even before breakfast.

Bourbon with a coffee chaser is nice.

Bourbon in coffee is splendid. I like OGD 114 and a dab of creamer.

It's 8 pm but I'm not sure if I should drink my whiskey neat or with coffee.

According to the Van Winkle article, ...not all bourbons are alike, aged bourbons attract a cultlike following...as opposed to the unaged bourbon??

Also a link at the bottom to an article about value bourbons with a quote from our very own Charles Cowdery...his favorite value bourbon is one that someone else is buying.
