Tico Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 Can't decide what to drink tonight so I will leave it up to you! I have way too much open at the moment and need to make a conscious effort to drink my open stash. Plan on having three pours.....

ChainWhip Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 I just finished Chuck's latest eBook so if I could indulge in "Being Tico" (aka John Malkovich), I'd try that A.H. Hirsch Gold Foil 16. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LostBottle Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 Nice selection there, Tico! If I were in your shoes, I would go with 3 ryes starting with the least sweet (I find that starting sweet and going the other way throws my palate off). Pour 1: Sazerac 18 for the nice spice and floral notes; also the least sweet of the three. With the lowest proof, it is a good way to ease into thing. Take your time and exhale deeply while enjoying that finish.Pour 2: Vintage 21 for the perfect proportions of spice, sweet, sour, and wood. A nearly perfect rye.Pour 3: Van Winkle 13 for the lusciousness. The sweetness of this one is a good way to finish up - almost like your after-drink desert rye.
