The drive to work and back today felt like snow boarding, busting thru the drifts. Don't ask about the in between.

But everything's OK now, yep, that's right, I done went and done it.

I reached down and pulled out a William Larue Weller 2007 from the bunker.

Sipping it neat, yes, there may be a God afterall.

Had some ORVW 10 107 the night before last.

I've been trying not to dip into my stash of this bottling since it has been impossible to come by in my area. Oh.... but it was soooo gooood.

A little bit of this...A little bit of that...WT12 Split Label, Woodford, and 2008 Parker's Heritage 122.6. Some other stuff in there, too. :crazy: All are dang good. As would be expected, the Parker's and Split were awesome, but the Woodford held up well. Call me crazy, but I like that funky nose on it.

But, when all is said and done, the Parker's is Very Special. :bowdown:

Tonight so far has been a flight of birds WTKS, WTRB, and WT 12 Yo split label. I love the nose on the 12 yo smells like a rickhouse.

WLW 09-a little hot on entry but still very good

Binny's ERSB-this is a very good everyday pour IMO

RHF's-it isn't talked a lot about here but it's probably in my top 10

With some help from my brother-in-law, my bottle of Russel Reserve Rye 90 is disappearing fast. I think it is a very good whiskey. I think both of the RR labels might be ideal starter whiskeys for some people.

I scored a six pack of OC 12 750s and knocked down a third a bottle last night. I think I will try to kill it off this weekend. That stuff is so good. Just a pleasent soft bourbon with loads of flavor. My last shot of the night was straight outa the bottle.

Seems like I read that the distillery was tilting those products as starter Bourbons. That was the reason they gave for changing the proof at any rate.

Scanning over the open bottle collection, I settled on an '06 AAA 10 year. I love that stuff....loads of flavor even at 86pf. After that, a delicious '95 OWA gold vein.

This McScrooge's OWA Single Barrel continues to hit me in the sweet spot. :yum:

Pappy 15 and a couple Saz. Jr's.

I saved the last big pour of Pappy 15 for the hockey game tomorrow. I'm gonna need it for the nerves.

I decided to expand my whiskey experience so I thought I would venture into Irish whiskey. Tonight I picked up a bottle of Jameson 12 yo on my first pour. I like this, very fruity apples I think.

SGTGTO in chat tonight said he got melon from Jameson 18, that might be a better description than apple. But what melon hmmm?

It seems strange that the more expensive label is the starter, and one works their way towards the 20$ bottle.

The drunker you are the less you appreciate the good stuff and the less you can taste the bad.

I cracked open a Willett I had in the back of the cabinet for a while. 16 yr, called the "Malt Bomb" It was the BOMB !!!!!!:bigeyes:

May be the best Willett I have ever owned.....

If the owner of this bottling sees this and has another one for me, Let me know.....:grin:

I did just come home from a 3-day journey late last night. A bit of a nightmare due to the fact that many trains are cancelled in behalf of the winter that is worse than we have had in many decades. The reason for the trip was for me and Yvonne to attend and cook for her oldest doters co-habitee 30-years party. It was of cause moonshine on the party as usual at 30 years party’s in Sweden. But I did bring a litre bottle of WT 8 and a 20 cl pocket bottle of OGD 114 as well. All of the bourbon got drunk up. The last drops on the 2 hours late train back home.
