Nothing, it's not noon yet.

You need to start waking up later, less time to wait.

OGD BIB. I need to stockpile this juice!

Cracked into my first "big" bottle, as opposed to the more mundane stuff that I had been drinking up to now. 2007 BTAC Saz 18.

Pretty good but I'm not sure that I don't like WT Rye just as well, at under 1/3 the price.

Maybe the Saz will get better as I work thru the bottle.

Weller 7/90 and black Beam from 1982 after a couple of day’s bourbon lay off.

Leif, do you note any differences between Beam Black from then and the one of today? If so, how would you express it?

I haven't had a bourbon and coke in years.

Yesterday I had a couple made with diet cola and Henry McKenna Single Barrel BIB 10yo.

I thought the McKenna was good this way, the spicey mint came thru the soda pop very well.

At 29 bucks and being a SB and BIB makes it a good value.

Tonight I decided to go with some WT 101. My wife and I were out of town for the weekend, and I went without for 3 days. I think she was more surprised than I was so this may be an opportunity to make up for lost time. What next to drink........

I've been working my way through the EWSB 2000. At first, I was a bit underwhelmed. But, as I get deeper into this bottle, it's brilliance is becoming evident. A little smokey in the nose. The entry is a touch delicate, but begins to build quickly into a lasting and full finish. It doesn't sledgehammer you, but rather hits it's fullness and just keeps going. There's a heather and honey thing going as it builds. Almost...kinda...Irish-like. The finish is very lasting and chewy. A nicely played addition to what has been a terrific line from Heaven Hill. Kudos to Craig and Parker Beam on this one.

On a fresh day, slowly try a small sip of the WT. Think about the flavors and finish. Then try the Saz. Then, sip them both again.
