Martin Mills 24yo 1974 107 proof. A bartender opened this and let us sampling this for free as much as we wanted. Happy Days. Best bourbon I have ever tasted

Did you snap a shot of the bottle? Just curious... That's cool you got to taste such rare liquid!

A bit of the Buffalo Trace, displaying a little more spice past the 1/2 way point of the bottle where previously its was all vanilla, vanilla, vanilla. I enjoy both of these personalities and its so interesting how bottles shift as they drain over time. I have yet to feel any of these shifts is negative but it is something that I notice in just about every bottle I have made my way through.

Had some VSOF BHC and then some ND OT last night. Both are very easy and enjoyable pours. Might do it again tonight.

Some Balcones Single Malt followed by some BT. Need to get back to CnB for another or their barrel pick.

We are counting down until my step son leaves for basic and ocs. Tonight we cracked a PVW 15, his first VW beyond Old Rip.

Wild Turkey 101 on crushed ice. Sitting on the porch in nearly cool weather, a big change from lately.

Felt a little crazy.... put a slice of orange and some ice in a rocks glass that I filled with EWB.

This must be what Aerosmith was thinking about when they wrote "Livin' on the Edge". ;)

Started the evening with Makers 46, which I only reach for it every couple months, and it always surprises me, love the caramel and citrus. Finished with probably too much 2012 FRLESB.

I would,it's quite good and rather different than the current releases,single barrel keep in mind but damn if this isn't a good pick.

I haven't had ETL in a while so I decided to crack mine open. I realized my mistake when I put in too much ice. This would've been 10x better with a cube or two simply for cooling purposes.

P.S. One store in town has ETL for $38 and another for $27? Give me a break.

Everyone has their own preference, but I only drink ETL neat. I guess you could try sticking a bottle in the fridge during the summer. On second thought don't listen to me. I don't put ice in any of my bourbon.
