A high rye-content weekend: Bulleit, GD 114, and (wait for the boos and hisses...) Basil Hayden.

Right now, I am having a mint ju;ep made with Wild Turkey 101 and superfine sugar. I don't have any mint in my yard, so I used some sold as an herb, dried up and crushed, in a spice jar. Anyway, the julep is delicious.

I like Basil Hayden for a change. Light and elegant.
Rittenhouse BIB and Ginger. The Rye and Ginger are fantastic together.

I had pours of St. Georges single malt, Olf Forrester 96 and Buffalo Trace. All excellent drinks. Nothing beat a good drink while working in the yard!

I cracked open a VWSR Lot B for the first time. The reviews on SB.com have been glowing and it did not disappoint! It jumped right into my Top 5 list. Yum!
For several days, nothing but manhattans, first prepared by then inspired by Gary Gillman. Last night, Jack Daniel's Silver Select. Tonight, Old Grand-Dad BIB.

Now on to OGD 114 from late in the ND era. I can't say enough about how unbelievable this stuff is. Rich, powerful, and darn near perfect. I'm glad I have three more bottles in reserve, which will be consumed much more slowly than this one has been.
