Tucker Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 Just finished the remaining ounce of a handle of OC 10 that's been sitting around for a while. On to the Weller 12. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Young Blacksmith Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 ND era Bourbon DeLuxe. I think I'm gonna put this bottle in the fridge and drink it regularly, it's pretty good for an 80 proofer but of course won't stand up to ice cubes.

awachatz Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 PVW15 and some W H Harrison Governor Reserve Rye. Both seem a little better once opened for several weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parkersback Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 A little summary of some Christmas pours:JTS Brown BIB was the mainstay, as there was a bottle at my mom's house. Nothing at all wrong with it: sweet, strong, pretty easy to drink. Probably preferred it on the rocks.Elijah Craig 18: This was my first taste of this ever, and I was duly impressed. It is definitely woody, but in a warm, dark cinnamon way. Layered and complex. We are running a tight budget these days, and with all the bottles in the cupboard, I'm not buying much. But this might be my next bottle.A little off topic, but Canadian Club (The Classic) 12: I like to get my mom's husband a bottle of Canadian whiskey to share over the holidays, last year it was CR Cask 16, this year it was CC12. This was pretty good stuff. The description given by Davin on his site is pretty spot on, a very Christmassy whiskey, meaning lots of warm, spice flavors. Absolutely no burn in the finish, in a way that is both good and bad. Easier to drink than the CC10. And I felt like it was thinner than the 10 year old, too. One way to say it is that I could almost mistake CC10 for bourbon, but not CC12. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil T Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 I started out with '08 OFBB. I just love the slight sweetness and spicy goodness. Finishing with OGD114. I know OGD BIB has a huge following, but I think this pour kicks its butt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birdman1099 Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 I cracked open an old Fitz Bib bottled 1980..... This is a great example why SW is so sought after..... :grin: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clavius Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 Taking a break from Islay single malts I'm drinking some Old Forester Signature tonight. In my opinion, this stuff is at least ten times better than Woodford. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokinjoe Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 A good solid pour of ETL while I sit here astounded on what the crap happened during the 30 minutes I left watching the Orange Bowl to help my daughter with homework!!! WVU has put up 63?!?!?!!? 30 minutes ago it was something like 17-14. Holy schnikes!! :bigeyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mosugoji64 Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 VSOF. I'm enjoying it quite a bit, but think I would have a hard time picking this out as a wheater in a blind test. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mosugoji64 Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 Some EW Honey Reserve and ginger ale. It's the only way I can stomach the stuff - way too sweet for me. This is probably the last bottle of flavored bourbon I will ever buy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil T Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 A couple weeks ago, I emptied an '08 OFBB. So glad I have a few more. I opened an '11 bottle last week, and man, Chris Morris does the BB's right. Slightly sweet and rye spice yummyness. I now have to add a few more of these to the stash, not that that bothers me.

mrt Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 I have just had some Jim Beam (White). I know many sneer at it (not here though, with already limited choices!), but anyway, I like Beam Whiskey-whether it's black or white. It's something like...I feel at home when I drink Jim Beam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
