Just finished an old PS OESQ and thoroughly enjoyed it. Convinced my friend to trade me the remainder of his GS OESQ. Very consistent overall, though this one has a pinch more oak and lemon on the nose and overall seems "beefier" than the PS.

Starting off with a pour of GD 9 yr (thanks Fox) and then the order will be WTRB 112, KCSB, and some CETHBP.

Starting the holiday weekend with a nice pour of ECBP 4 with a touch of water. Brought it down to about 105 proof. Sweet yet spicy.

Quick pour of PHC8 upon returning from the airport with my son, the moved on to a good size pour of MMCS (to finish off the bottle) after dinner. I enjoyed the MMCS. I still want to vat with SB blend to see if it adds anything worth having.

Happy Thanksgiving, all. Started tonight with some Russell's Reserve and am sipping some WT 101 right now. Probably have a pour of 4R Single Barrel as a finishing sip. Hope you all have an enjoyable weekend!

Eclectic Thanksgiving eve for me. Started out with a couple of sips of GTS. Moved onto small pours of Redbreast CS, OE 7/101, and ER 10.

Last night I laid it on pretty thick with the HH6BiB. That stuff is just plain tasty. What should be "sip sip savor savor" too easily turns into "glug glug glug".

Not complaining either.

and you dont even have to feel like "this is too expensive/limited.....I better go easy on this one".

home from a crappy day at work, and about to pour a fatty of HH6BIB and wind down. tomorrow is turkey day at the in-laws.

work sucked, until about an hour after shift change. Im sitting there doing my charting, when the nurse I gave report to for my team came up to me, annoyed, and said....

she: why did you tell me "X" had a colostomy bag?

me: what?

she: you told me "X" had a colostomy bag, but he/she doesnt

me: I must've had that on my mind during report as "Y" had one, and I had just given report on them to another nurse, and they had the same root condition

she: well I looked like a real dumbass. I'm feeling all over this person's belly, when they look at me and ask what I'm doing. I said I was looking for their colostomy bag. They said, with a confused and amused stare " I dont have a colostomy, I have an anus"

Me, knowing patient "X" was a nurse themself and had a good rapport with them the last few days, could envision the whole thing going down, and laughed myself to tears, literally, in the midst of the nurses station. That made the whole day worth it!

to anuses!:toast:

OGD 114. This is a new 2014 bottle. It seems to be really, really great this year. Not harsh, well-balanced, a bit syrupy. Yum!

Some 8yr WT101 from '84 to celebrate turkey day. Had our big meal early so the wife can work on homework, and I can fit in ample naps between pours.

Cheers, and Happy Thanksgiving everyone! :toast:

I completely agree. I'm smoking three turkey breast while sipping HH6BIB.

Enjoyed a bit of Larceny last night. It's been a while since I tried this and forgot how good it is! Happy Thanksgiving to all!

Two different store selections of Buffalo Trace. One is really sweet, with big green apples on the nose. The other has a bit more char and spice. Both perfect for turkey day. Happy Thanksgiving all!

George T. Stagg 2013. Started with a quick pour before carving the turkey. Can't seem to move on to anything else. 2 ounces at a time just seems so right. IF this is an off year, I can' wait to try the 2014. Happy Thanksgiving to all!
