Vosgar Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 Really enjoying some Lot B tonight. It got buried too far back in the cabinet and had been forgotten. Shame on me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigerlam92 Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 Started with some ORVW 10/107. After allowing it to breath for a month, it's a lot better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hectic1 Posted April 2, 2010 Author Share Posted April 2, 2010 I had some Lot B last night and I was amazed at the difference drinking it out of a glass GC vs. a crystal GC...I'm a believer! I follwed that pour up with some 09 WLW cut to 110 proof then finished the night with a pour of ORVW 10/90. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawg73 Posted April 3, 2010 Share Posted April 3, 2010 Just watched the Sox in the final Spring Training tune up before starting with the Yanks tomorrow. I was enjoying a RRBiB with a splash of water. Nice. And it is absolutely beautiful here in New England today!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smokinjoe Posted April 3, 2010 Share Posted April 3, 2010 I've been sippin' Maker's Mark this afternoon. As always, a truly wonderful nose. Very thick legs seeping down the sides of my glass,too. Very, very tasty. This is damn fine bourbon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gillman Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 A cocktail I devised in recent years, which is a kind of combination of a Manhattan and a Sazerac. It's really a Manhattan with a dash of absinthe, which some early recipes called for - nothing really new under the sun in this area.I like the faint hint of anise/herbs from the absinthe and the winy undertone from the vermouth. The secret though is in the whiskeys, as usual I use my own blending of bourbons and straight ryes. I have a bit of a house secret, which is, if I think the taste isn't knit together perfectly, I will add a dash of good vodka. I have tried Canadian whisky but usually that puts it off. Vodka rounds the taste and if it is good quality you don't notice the effect. You can't go wrong without it, but I sip these neat and want to get the texture 100% right. I need to come up with a name for this, maybe a Sahattan.A variation is using half whiskeys, half brandy (ies).Gary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nor02lei Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 I still have to stay a bit low on whiskey as I am on painkillers after shoulder surgery. However I did have a glass of JDSS before the Easter table yesterday. It tasted good but maybe not as good as usual. I think the treatment the anaesthetic team does with tubes and masks in your mouth and nose effects the taste a week or so afterwards.Leif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jburlowski Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 Continued the WT weekend with some Tradition and WTRR. Won a few bucks on the Wood Memorial and Illinois Derby but gave it back (and then some) on the Santa Anita Derby.
