"Flask Bourbon"

You cut to the chase fairly quickly, don't you , Ed?

Experience has proven that being obvious is the best way to avoid suspicion. My dad always said, "Just act like you know what you're doing."

Last summer I tossed my 6oz. stainless flask, 1/2 full of Corner Creek, into my tackle box after a fishing trip. Forgot all about it until a few months later. I poured the contents into a rocks glass and enjoyed......no diff. in taste noticed.

I didn't know they made flasks that stayed full for longer than 2 hours?

Old Grandad 114 - tastes great straight from the flask !

Like you say the nose is gone, so focus on Bourbons that are more taste than smell

[Gillman]

Or that didn't leak.

That must've been an interesting moment.
Between the lures, gummy worms and jar bait. HMMMM, wonder if the bourbon tastes or smells like the rest of this stuff?
Nope, just fine.
Wait a second, is that half a Velveeta on white bread wrapped in foil?
HMMM?

Similar experience. Bought a new vest on a fishing trip and a couple years later grabbed the old one for a short trip and found a 6oz flask of 7yr 107 Weller in a pocket. Stuff was as good as ever.

As others have said, the material makes a difference. My flask is glass so it changes the whiskey not at all. I seldom drink directly from it, however, so that's not an issue. Mine has a double cap. The outer one is a shot glass. However, I rarely use that either. I either pour into a normal glass or drink directly from the flask.

My main criteria for what to put in the flask is proof. Since the flask only holds a limited amount, I want to get the most out of it by carrying as high a proof whiskey as possible, usually no less than 100.

No really, where can I get one of these flasks that stays full? After a couple hours I often wish my flask was still full, it would sure be nice to have one of those.
