weller_tex Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 Look, I got really ticked at Chuck one time here about something that had nothing to do with bourbon, and I know some have many times, but the guy is a huge source of knowledge and a fantastic writer, a real treasure to this community. He used to link to sample reviews from Bourbon Country Reader but they are a little harder to find now, but here is my favorite..for MM:http://home.ix.netcom.com/~mbky/articles/makers.htmlI am working out of town and am enjoying a half-pint of Makers and even though it's 9 years since that review, his review nails it perfectly. A testament to Samuels and Co. and to Chuck's descriptive abilities.So for all but the hopeless MM haters, have a shot or two and compare your thoughts to Chuck's..

cowdery Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 I've kept my ix.netcom.com email address because I have it printed so many places. Netcom was absorbed by and still lives within Earthlink. They're not my isp but I still pay them a modest amount for the address and web hosting. There's probably a smarter solution, but "there's probably a smarter solution" could be the motto for my whole life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
