What bourbon are you drinking today? Autumn '12

[Clavius]

Just poured some VOB BIB after a few beers. Great stuff!

[hectic1]

Brought a sample from a bottle of ORVW 10/107 that I've had open for about 9 months and I've poured from twice...this one definitely has gotten better while sitting dormant on the bar! It was pretty hot when I first opened it hence why I hadn't poured from it more but now I'm getting some nice fruit and a hit of wood on the finish.

Enjoyed the heck out of some standard-issue 4RSB last night. Found again that I'm not nearly as fond of the 4RSmB.

Another pour of Old Heaven Hill BIB. Very nice. I wish I could find a place around here that sold this.

Watching the election results come in with some FR Mariage 2009...simply one of my favorite bottles of FR's that has ever hit the shelves! :cool:

[Trey Manthey]

Jefferson's Presidential 17...it's the most presidential whiskey I have open.

[Special Reserve]

A little CGL WT12 it tasted extra special tonight.

[White Dog]

BMH 23yr Rye. Tasting oh so sweet.

[Luna56]

A big, fat pour of this year's Handy. So glad the election is over.

It may be another four years before this Handy opens up, it's tighter than a bull's ass in horsefly season.

Cheers to all!

Great idea on the Jefferson's 17 since I just found another bottle of it, wish I would've thought of it. But...Parker's Heritage 2012 takes on a new level of tastiness.

Finally opened my PHC wheater. Yeah, it lives up to the hype.:cool:

[Clavius]

Just drinking some plain old WT101 tonight. Nothing special. I struck out on BTAC this year and will probably end up doing the same on PVW this release. Kind of a bummer. But then I remind myself that over the past few years I managed to get (and subsequently drink) several bottles of every ORVW/PVW offering (minus the prohibitively expensive 23yr). So I'm one of the lucky ones I guess. Hopefully somebody out there who is genuinely enthusiastic about bourbon was able to get their hands on a bottle of PVW for the first time this release and enjoys it. But I fear that PVW has become a status symbol that know-nothings clamor for just so they can say they have a bottle.

Plain old MM for me. Pretty good. I'm beginning to think there really is no bad bourbon. :-)

[Ejmharris]

Opened two bottles of bourbon today because the open category has dwindled recently and just realized all I have open is rye. The first was the 2012 PHC. Wow, big boy with a big flavor

Profile. The marriage of wood, sweet wheat and rye are fantastic in this one. I can't wait for a tasting with my brother and neighbor.

Te second bottle was equally enjoyable to me for less than half the price. It was the TPS 4R's SB offering from last year. I do love some of the gems that Jay comes across.

Popped open the Binny's hand picked Willet 8 yo Wheater. This is the most complex under 10 year old bourbon I've ever tasted. Starts with loads of dark fruits followed by some oak mid palate and finishes with vanilla and nougat that lasts forever. So little burn and very drinkable at barrel proof 122.1. I'm going to pick up a couple more bottles of this Saturday at the SB get together.

Rock Hill Farms. To be honest, the RHF was so good last night that I felt a little silly for spending so much time and effort tracking down the yearly releases. Glad to know there are fantastic bourbons like this that I can find on the shelves.

I've had quite a bit over the past week (took a little trip up to Kentucky). Here are a few:

OGD 114

OWA

Maker's 46

Larceny

ORVW 10/90

VSOF (current bottle)

EC 12/15 (GBS bottle)

Cream of Kentucky (from 70's?)

Doug's 22yr Rye

And I'm sure there are several more which I've forgotten.

[jcg9779]

A couple nice pours of OWA SB this evening.

[smokinjoe]

A couple nice pours of OWA SB this evening.

Me too, Jack. And, it's hitting the spot!

[jcg9779]

Me too, Jack. And, it's hitting the spot!

OWA seems to hit the spot for me more often than not. Definitely my standard pour.

Finished off the evening with some ER101 Lawrenceburg.

[OscarV]

I am sipping some Knob Creek Single Barrel, neat.

Haven't had any since the original release, I'm diggin' it or is the proof diggin' me?

Check the posts later, will I freak-out again with alcohol poisoning and hit the PR&C threads?

Only time (and/or intake) will tell.

[MyOldKyDram]

Setting here, enjoying the start of college basketball and getting ready to watch UKs first game, sipping on some 4R gift shop bourbon.

I saw the beer barrel a couple of different times he last couple of days. It has my interest but also make me laugh. It is aged in the new holland dragons milk barrels that was aged in bourbon barrels. Cycle of life, I suppose.

Finished off a bottle of WLW12, then enjoyed some WTRR10. I always like a rye based bourbon after a wheater as the rye becomes so pronounced.

Now some Lot B as I catch up on Boardwalk Empire.
