Auracom Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 Lots of fun today in Lawrenceburg, Bardstown, and Louisville. Here's everything I had today:Four Roses Yellow LabelFour Roses Small BatchFour Roses Single BarrelRittenhouse RyeLarcenyElijah Craig 12Rowan's CreekWillett Pot StillNoah's MillWillett Family Reserve 2 year ryeMaker's Mark Cask StrengthBooker's 25th AnniversaryWild Turkey 112 proofAnd just a few impressions. EC12 is the best bottle under $30 ever (but I already knew that). Willett 2 year smelled pretty great and was unique but I wasn't in love with the taste. Definitely brash and overtly harsh. Maker's Mark cask strength is kinda boring. No additional complexity despite the added alcohol. I will not be looking for a bottle. Bookers 25th was pretty well smoothened out for 65% but I wouldn't chase this one either. The new label Rare Breed is really nice... definitely better than the preview 108 proof version. And a special shoutout to 4R Yellow Label for officially going down in history as the first bourbon my girlfriend can tolerate! Hopefully this is the start of something...

Mardbrown Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 First EW White Label BiB (yum)Then JBDC (still not impressed with this one)Then VOB BiB (ahhhh)That Jim Beam Devils Cut does nothing for my palate. I had some Evan Williams BIB as well. I really like the smooth vanilla/cola like notes that I get from it. It definitely hit the spot tonight.

DPPSmoker Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 Me and a buddy enjoyed pours of EC18 and MMCS while he brewed up 9 gallons of imperial stout to be filled in the barrel I brought home with me from KBF. I agree that MMCS is not very complex but my buddy and I really enjoyed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bin31z Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 Did a sbs with hhss batch 2, dudgeon reserve cognac, sb blend w12/owa last night. The hhss is clearly a wheatear and has similar nose to owa, not as woody as w12. There are some obviously chalky grape notes like a cognac. The nose is a little closed tho, I would actually say both the sb and cognac had a clearer nose, more distinct as opposed to slightly muddled on the hhss. The palate however, hhss is one of the best bourbons I ever had. I tasted at barrel proof and every sip is like a roller coaster. Very light entry, for a second, almost tastes like a cognac, then flavor becomes very intense, huge sweet grape flavors, caramel, brown sugar, sweet and slightly acidic to balance. The finish is longggg and you get tons of the cognac barrel finish. Easy to sip at barrel proof. Water opens nose but diminishes the flavor explosion. Amazing stuff!
