DeanSheen Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 "I was surprised that the FR 120th barrel 1-L came out on top. I held a FR tasting sometime ago and that bottle won out of 5 different recipes."I love that stuff. Sweet vindication. Only 3 more bottles in the bunker. I killed one this weekend.

SMOWK Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 Enjoying some late 80s WSR that was kindly sent to me by BBQ+Bourbon. THANKS! Compared to the current stuff, I see the similarities, but this older one is a bit better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ACDetroit Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 Don't freak out on me, but just arrived home with a 6 pack of Blenheim ginger ale! a local store carries it now :cool: . So I made a cocktail, maybe the best I've ever had;(2) dashes each Angostura and Peychaud's bitters over 3 icecubes.2 to 3 oz. Rittenhouse 21 yr old Ryeand filled the rocks glass up with the Blenheim original ginger ale!The bitters really add depth to the drink while the age shines thru from the Ritt with nice barrel notes and a little char. The Ginger ale kicks everything in the ass with it's spice and robust flavor! Truly a great sipper on such a warm day!Cheers!Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unclebunk Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 Really fabulous pour of OGD114 last night while watching football. Sometimes the ol' sauce really hits the spot and last night was one of those occasions. Full-bodied, great aroma, long finish, etc. Who could ask for more?

Gillman Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 I'll have to try that Tony, although I will place a gloss on Tim's statement by saying that a poor quality (or young, really) bourbon or rye also can make an excellent cocktail. It's the middle shelf stuff that doesn't work. Sipping now a grappa called Acquavite Di Bricco Battistina, 1986 vintage. It was bottled in the mid-90's and has a light yellow tint. It has the typical flavours of grappa - earthy, leather, anise - but wreathed with light oak which kind of brings it all together. Perfect digestive to a vigorous dinner of curry beef and India Pale Ale. Gary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
