mosugoji64 Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 EWSB '96. This one has a unique, nutty flavor that I haven't noticed in any other EWSB I've tried. Glad I bunkered another one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcg9779 Posted July 8, 2011 Author Share Posted July 8, 2011 Finished the evening with a pour of RHF. I don't visit this bottle often, but it's always good when I do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 I'm finishing off my bottle of Wild Turkey Rye. I was all set to defend it from callmeox's attacks comparing it to diesel fuel, but I am now realizing that I really can't. Ugh. Not even ginger ale can salvage it.

hectic1 Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 Decided to break into the Rebel Yell 90pr 1984 that I found last week. Definitely a SW bourbon...can't wait so see how this one opens up in the glass as well as how it changes in the bottle. Big Rich nose filled with maple and brown sugar, dried fruit on the pallet with a little dryness/wood/ on the finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gillman Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 A blend of bourbons to which I added a light touch of a dry Sazerac I keep. It added just the touch of sweetness and spice I like but on a rich, integrated whiskey base.Gary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jcg9779 Posted July 9, 2011 Author Share Posted July 9, 2011 Drinking some bourbon and ginger ale tonight. First was OWA with ginger, and it just didn't quite work (I wanted to try a wheater in this drink). Second was a Fighting Cock with ginger, and it's a much better pairing. I know Bob (hectic) prefers a rye whiskey when he makes a whiskey and ginger, but I think that bourbon lends itself quite nicely to this cocktail.

DeanSheen Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 Binnys Weller 12Over the fourth I tried Rye and Ginger with Ritt BIB and Bulleit rye. I thought the Bulleit was a better mix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BradleyC Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 I had the Willet 3year with Ginger Ale and it has become a regular around my house. I guess its close to the same whiskey as the Bulleit, just higher proof. The only problem is, I go through the bottle quicker when I mix it in the ginger ale.I'm cheating a little tonight. Found some Laphroaig 10 on sale for $30. There is a whole lot of flavor in this bottle for only 86pf and only $30.Laphroaig is like some good curried Thai food. You will remember it all the next day as the smells seep out of your pores. Binnys Weller 12Over the fourth I tried Rye and Ginger with Ritt BIB and Bulleit rye.

George Posted July 10, 2011 Share Posted July 10, 2011 Having a pour of Weller 12. This was my first bottle, and it's really good; however, based the price, I'd go with Weller SR or OWA every time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
