Not tonight, but this week while on biz in Chicago, I really, Really, enjoyed a couple of pours of JB Devil's Cut at a restaurant we ate at. I liked the bottle that I had some months ago, but didn't remember it being as good as what I experienced this week. I will have to go get another.

Enjoying? Not so much. I had a pour of CnB BT 39 that seemed strangely herbal/funky tonight.
Enjoying a nice pour of EC 12.
Enjoying a nice pour of Ancient Ancient Age 10 Star. What a great value bourbon. Seems to have a little bit of everything some sweetness, some wood (but not too much), and a little bit of spice. Finish is enjoyable as well. It's one of the few bottom (mid?) shelfers that I like everytime I pour it, even when I stack it up against some top-shelfers. Ultimately the top-shelf may be preferred, but AAA10 always keep me coming back. Makes me curious what the 10-year old age-stated used to taste like.

^^ ^ Very interesting... I polished off my last bottle of AAA 10 year last night. Lots of caramel for sure... A damn fine value poor. I will be replenishing the stocks when I am in KY for the Sampler.
