Last couple pours of AAA, dare say its going to be a looooooong time before I get a bottle of this again

[ChainWhip]

Between a large pour for myself and a couple of samples that are going out, a bottle of Hirsch 22 Rye hit the bin tonight - fare thee well ye rock star rye!

Farewell Hirsch 22... or should I say hello? Thanks CW!

Henry McKenna 10 year old BiB, "Hand Selected by the Loch & K(e)y Society", Un-Chill Filtered, Barrel #693, bottled on 12/26/00

The Loch & K(e)y society bottles appear at Julio's Liquors in Westborough, MA, and also at some other stores in MA.

Empty now, no more available, but at least I've got a spare in storage.

Older bottle of ORVW 10/90 gave up it's last pour tonight. Very nice pour rich w/caramel and vanilla sweetness.

Finished off a JJ Bowman #45 from TPS. This one was great when I first opened it, but fell flat as I drained the bottle.

Elijah Craig 18 was finished last night

Nothing special but one that I like...Four Roses Small Batch. A pretty solid bourbon for $24.

92' fat Boy of OGD 86. Last of the ND juice years. Damn that was great butterscotch candy shared with many friends. Now I'm down to my stock of 88' OGD86, saving for special occasions.

Couple bottles were 86'd tonight. Sad about last pour of a FRSB store selected by Liquor Barn. Not nearly as sad at the BMH SmB. Have another bottle that I cant envisioning ever wanting to open.

[Renegator]

Took a single barrel selection of Buffalo Trace to the curb. It was damn fine whiskey for $20. I'll have to get another bottle. The store selection was much better than the generic.

[bingstein]

As in you'll regret opening as it's then consumed....or "god what was i thinking?"

[theglobalguy]

I should have been more clear... It does nothing for me except making a decent old fashioned. The first bottle was worth it for curiosity but the second was a waste of money

[snifred]

Finished a FR OESF from Liquor Barn.

Loads of BMH SmB around here, envision buying more.

Polished off my last bottle of Weller 12. Understand it hard to find right now. Hopefully I can replenish.

[Trey Manthey]

Cleaned out some stragglers this weekend: OGD114, a BT store selection, and a JPS17.

Trey, how did your JPS17 fair towards the end of the bottle? With the JPS17/18s that I've had, they seem to be heavily impacted by the airtime in the bottle. I think my bottles were open for around 6 months on average.

Weller 12 kicked the bucket

Said goodbye to a Cork&Keg OBSQ. Going back for more when I get a chance.

After a bad experience with the 2011 FRSB LE, this one has completely changed my opinion of the OBSQ recipe.

It's hard to finish anything at the Gazebo, but I (we) did manage to finally put down a PHC cognac the first night there.

[savagehenry]

Last night killed off an EC12 and EW BIB and my wife killed a MaCallan 12.

[TunnelTiger]

A Weller 12 to the curb (still have one in the bunker) and now working on a Henry Mckenna
