Kalessin Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 Julio's selection Henry McKenna BiB after cleanup after wallpaper removal in the master bedroom.The rose-pink chrysanthemum figured wallpaper (where the blooms formed an intriguing yet madness-inducing honeycomb sort of pattern) is GONE! Underneath the wallpaper, we found the date the paper went up (June 1981) and the whole family's names on the plaster wall surface, written in by one of the kids -- very cute!I think I'll follow this pour with a little Rock Hill Farms, and then off to bed. Easy day at work scheduled for tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OutlawSW Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 Excellent! How does the '08 compare with the '12? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
portugieser Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 I'm not the best with tasting notes and the '08 had been open for over 2 years while I just opened the '12 tonight but I would say the '08 was softer and a bit sweeter, both my 15 and 23 from '08 kind of remind me of a port wine, the '12 tastes hotter and a bit spicer, it reminds me more of Lot B, Weller 12 and OWA, they taste more like cousins than siblings to me but it could have to do with air time. Like I said though I'm not so good with tasting notes, I'm kind of a "peasant" when it comes to that sort of thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OutlawSW Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 Thanks. My tasting notes are usually something like "delicious." I'm sure these all merit that description.That they are, for sure! Describing tastes is tough for me but I like to think that I'm getting a better handle on it, (honestly that was the 1st time I have tried publicly) I find drinking wine and beer from time to time and trying to pick out specific flavors helps me with my bourbon tastings.

Old Lamplighter Posted December 25, 2012 Share Posted December 25, 2012 (edited) Started off the day's festivities with the annual bountiful family Christmas Eve feast with all the trimmings....followed with a dessert of the 2012 versions of Stagg & WLW courtesy of our most gracious host. A while afterwards some wonderful Port to finish dessert time.:yum:Just arrived home and starting with some Pappy 20 & WT Tribute. Plans for additional samplings later in the evening are incomplete at present....back with you later.:drink: Edited December 25, 2012 by Old Lamplighter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keraptis Posted December 25, 2012 Share Posted December 25, 2012 3 new ones for me tonight...Started off with Very Old Barton; I have been looking for a bargain shelf bourbon and this fit the bill. Lots of cherries and nothing foul. Moved on to Grand Traverse Straight Bourbon. Definitely young, but not horrible. Certainly not worth the price tag at this point, however. Finished up with the AH Hirsch 16 I stumbled upon tonight. Absolutely amazing.Now it's time for some Bell's Holiday Ale and A Christmas Story. Merry Christmas All!

jakeox Posted December 25, 2012 Share Posted December 25, 2012 Very mixed bag tonight. Some Knob Creek small batch, some Pikesville Rye, and after dinner, given the task of clearing out some of the old bottles from the bar, one hefty pour of "Wild Turkey Liqueur" (a bit overly sweet but otherwise not bad): Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
