Long week, long day. Probably more of the same for the coming week. Basically a BT ladder this evening with BT, Weller SR, ER, and EH Taylor SmB. Please stay tuned. -

The minty note of the Old Fitz made me want some more minty spiciness. On my way to reach for the 4R OBSF, my eyes came across the lonely looking '17 4RSmBLE bottle. It spoke to me. The OBSF will have to wait. -

Good to know. I also have their Uncut unfiltered bottle I purchased at the same time as the small batch but I haven't opened yet. I'll have to crack open the UU soon to compare them. -
It's great to see this old familiar bottle show up again.
-
make them last ... but be sure to enjoy them when the time is right and the palate is singing!

I have an old tax stamped 1.75 of Old Forester BIB in my bunker. after my Old Fitz is gone, it will be my last tax stamped dusty. -
I have one of those OF 1.75's stored away as well. After seeing this post it might not be so safe! Opened this tonight. Haven't had one of those in quite some time.

I'm on vacation starting this week. Funny, my official vacation started on Friday evening, but since it was a regular weekend, it didn't really feel like vacation yet. Here on Sunday night, watching a delayed recording of the last leg of the 24 Hours of Le Mans, it feels great that I don't have to go to work tomorrow. So I can have a couple of pours with no guilt. First pour was 2005 Pure Kentucky XO. I've really come to appreciate this bottle, and as it gets close to the bottom I realize I'm going to miss it. Think I'll archive off a few ounces in a sample bottle for future comparisons. It has a unique varnish note that only dusty bourbons can provide. That sounds strange, but it's a unique and pleasurable flavor. My second pour is Old Fitz Bonded old school bottling ... as inspired by @0895 and the other fellas over in the 'What bottle did you open" thread. Good call -- good stuff! -

I’m always accepting donations. 101 rye is fantastic as a neat sipper. It has a delicate creaminess to it that I don’t find in any other bottles.

I took my 2nd hit of WRDO (a full shot, neat, in a Glenn Carin glass). I actually liked it... perhaps even better than regular WR. Certainly different than BT, but just as enjoyable. I'm starting to get the aromas down, but we'll keep at it. -

Mama in her kerchief, I in my nightcap. Layed down for a long late Spring night's nap. When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter. I was too tired to give a s...t for that matter. When what to my wondering eyes did appear? Nothing. I was already asleep. Nice pour as a night cap! -

Actually, I am doing the same. WT101 and Olympic Swim Trials. Except, I just made a changeover to OWA107 circa 2013. I decided it was time to open this bottle since it is Father's Day. -

I like that one a lot as well. Much more than anything else I've had from them. I periodically get them for about $35 on Unicorn auctions. Worth every last little nickel. Mine were bought about 9 months ago.
