Megawatt Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 I've watched a lot of his reviews and enjoyed them but certain things do get tiresome. Like his insistence on categorizing everything as either a malt or a blend, even when the whisky in question is neither (pure pot still). But overall he does a good job.

unclebunk Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 I always check Ralfy's site and/or Youtube to catch up on the reviews that I missed the first time around. He's a pleasant fellow, knowledgeable and entertaining in his low-key way, which makes him fun to watch when I have some free time on my hands.

harshest Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 If you like Ralfy, I just noticed that he is starting a series on American Whiskey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebo Posted October 18, 2010 Author Share Posted October 18, 2010 I've been waiting for him to do bourbons. It should be interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverfish Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 Ralfy has started his bourbon reviews. Post # 155 3/3 is an overview of 10 he's going to cover. First up was Elijah Craig 12 year and second was Western Gold (which included a shout out to Chuck Cowdery.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverfish Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 In his Review # 164 of Rittenhouse Rye, Ralfy gives a nod to SB.com at about the 6:25 mark.And at the 9:15 mark, he mentions adding a drop of Absinthe to your glass of Rye to make a "concentrated Sazerac". Not sure what that's all about -anyone else gonna try it?!... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what that's all about -anyone else gonna try it?!...I've actually done it before. I call it the lazy man's Sazerac. If I want to get that rye/Absinthe flavor but don't feel like muddling sugar, I'll do something quick like that (with a drop of Pechaud's as well).

silverfish Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 oops. I guess I'd better read up thread a bit before I post.:blush:Heh, no problem. I really enjoyed Ralfy's "Bourbon Break" and hope he'll do some more. Maybe we could convince him to sprinkle a few in between Scotch reviews...

dmarkle Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 Heh, no problem. I really enjoyed Ralfy's "Bourbon Break" and hope he'll do some more. Maybe we could convince him to sprinkle a few in between Scotch reviews...Indeed, but I doubt you'll ever see him do too much on the subject going forward, with the pricing and availability he's seeing. I think he said that GTS is North of $300. $300!!! I doubt you could get a bottle of OWA over there if your life depended on it. Sounds like Bourbon in the UK = MM, JB, and basic BT....
