A bit of EH Taylor... a very nice pour but a poor value.... for $40-45 this would be in the rotation...

BT Experimental Collection tonight. The 1991 barrels from the 2011 release. The description on the bottle is pretty much spot on. One of the better pours that I've had in a while. Shame it's so limited.......

Wild Turkey 101, 8 year old, 1980

(At this particular point in time, I'm unsure if there is anything better...)

Going to keep it simple tonight. I found an open bottle of Bulleit in the back of the cabinet so that's what I'm having.

Started with a Lot B.

Moved on to OGD 114 with a splash. A pack of Little Debbie nutty bars on the side. Hey, don't knock it til you try it.

RHF then to ER17 2007. Now having a healthy pour of ORVW 10/90. I know I'm an oddball but I think I like the 10/90 better than the 10/107.

Started off with some 2010 WLW. Now working on some WTRB. Tempted to finish off my PHC10 for my last pour since I just ordered 3 more bottles but not sure I can bring myself to do it til they actually arrive.

Jin Beam small batch with port from the other side of the world.

Tastes like Jim Bem but a bit sweeter with a different finish. The finish reminds me a bit of Angels Envy but with none of the balance of AE. AE is most definately better. I get more port flavors from AE.

Odd is the best word to describe my first taste.

Had a nice pour of OWA yesterday at lunch with a fat roast beef sandwich. That's a great combo!

RR 10/90 then a EWSB 2000.

First time with the Russel's. My buddy put an ice cube in it and I think it killed it.

He managed to find every last EWSB 2000 in the QC. (Obviously he's a fan.) He found one known good (barrel 927 ... very, very good, I've owned two from that barrel myself), one he has had before (a 65x, can't remember exactly) and the one he poured tonight (119x). A little more heat in this one as compared to the 927, still mighty tasty though!

I'm having a small pour from barrel 432 right now. I'm finding a lot of mint in this one right now. This isn't the first time I sampled this bottle, but it is the first time I've picked up any mint in the taste. I've read threads here talking about minty-ness associated with HH, but never noticed it myself.

I think I may attempt to find another bottle of the 2000, if only for a change of pace.

I received a gift of Forty Creek Premium Barrel Select today so I am drinking that at the moment. But will switch over to Wild Turkey 101 later. Maybe in a few days, nothing at all. Bummer.

Alright, where is that freaking acronym page when you want it?:lol: What is ER 10/101? I feel your pain though about the last pour of a bottle.

Punishing myself with a three-ounce pour of the Kirkland Beam product. It's been open for more than a month, and it's still all oak and burn. :hot:
