What bourbon are you drinking? Summer 2013

[Bourbon Boiler]

Started the evening with Towne Branch. Nothing special, but it's bourbon.

[Yeti]

How is that? I haven't opened mine yet.

I hate it. I'm trying to get rid of it as fast as I can!

Seriously though, it's distinctly FR, full bodied, and oddly spicy on the palate. I say "oddly" because a few members and I tasted this and the OBSO SBS and expected more spice from the (younger) high rye. It did have a spicier finish, but the E has more palate spice and thicker mouthfeel. Both could be indicative of the extra time in the wood. This OESO was a big hit at this past weekend's get-together with both experienced drinkers and newcomers alike.

Thanks. I have the OESO & OBSO too. Trying close out some bottle before I dive in. Looking forward to these bottles to say the least.

Love the OESO! You need a NAS/RAID5 solution J!

[Yeti]

I know, I know! I'm stop-gapping with RAID-1 for now. But I'll look into expanding into a 5 array.

Started with Vodka but moved on to ECBP. Had a healthy pour and moved on to PHC12. Not sure what is next but I am sure it will be good!

Mrssmokinjoe and littlesmokinjoe are out at the American Idol concert, so it's just me and the dog holding down the fort. Just finished a bone in ribeye on the grill and baked tater. Now, it's Braves on the radio, Perdomo 10th Anniversary, and a thick pour of OGD 114 in the glass. It's making for bliss...The pup is grinding away on that ribeye bone now, so she's lovin' life, too. .

Just opened an Ezra Brooks 7/90 from 1979. This is one of the better dusties I've ever had. Complex, mature, and spicy...three descriptors that I rarely use for dusties. It has some similarities to vintage Wild Turkey. I'm loving this pour.

FRSB 2013, first pour of this since the Sampler Gazebo. Couldn't resist opening it any longer.

[squire]

We decided to end the evening with some Old Grand Dad.

Going to the next day with a TPS 10 year Old Scout.

A great night at work, customers bought me pours of: Vintage 23 Bourbon, PVW15, Ten High Ten and 10 year Heaven Hill Bonded (DSPKY 31)

[BFerguson]

Spent the night with a freshly cracked bottle of PHC wheated. Been a while since I opened one of these. So freaking good!!

Cant wait to continue to drink this over the long weekend that I'm having lakeside.

Had friends over last night. Started with VW Lot 'B', 17 yr Vintage, WLW. Both the Lot B and WLW were new bottles. The WLW was from 2006. Don't know what took me so long, but it tasted great. Ended the night going back with a small pour of Lot B.

[hn4bourbon]

Had a good pour of Barton, WSR7, and Jefferson's Reserve each. Really enjoyed the Barton and WSR7 but still trying to figure out if I like the Jefferson's Reserve.

[rcb4d]

I've been passing the last couple of evenings with the revelation that is the SB Blend.

That's a pretty picture to put in my head.
