LCWoody Posted October 4, 2014 Share Posted October 4, 2014 Having several different bourbons tonight WTRR 10y, 4R's OBSK Specs, GD 9y, Michter's 10y SB, GTS 2012, and Retoric 20y. Everything was very good. I did a side by side with GD 9y and 4Rs, and I have to say that they were very similar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The big difference is the finish, FR has a better finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paddy Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 Wow, what a day in college football! After watching the Ole Miss/Alabama game I decided to get my hotty toddy on with four fingers of the SB Blend. Awesome as always! :drink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Vino Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 Mrs. EV and our daughter out looking at colleges. Started with a bit of the McKenna 10YO BIB, then moved on to a store selection Jefferson's Reserve Very Old, Very Small Batch. Trying to get a feel for this, went back for a second pour and a third. 90 proof. At $50, I'm on the fence if I want more for the bunker. I like whats there, just that the volume is on 3. Caramel, vanilla and a touch of wood. Just want the volume on 7 or more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nd2005 Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 Celebrating the Notre Dame victory with a Sazerac Manhattan, followed by a generous pour of ER17. ER17 doesn't get enough credit compared to the rest of the BTAC, imho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Vino Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 iMHO - Having sampled both my decision is to bunker the McKenna hard to beat at the age/priceWould love to see the Jefferson's at barrel strength. My palate isn't up to figuring out if its just mild flavors or too much water. Really enjoying the McKenna. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ldugsjr1986 Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 I like whiskey Tonight keep coming back to this one. Mixed in some EC23 but decided I'd save that one for when I hadn't had so much others before hand. I think I've also had some ERSB, EC12, SAOS, and standard BT ... oh well, it's a rough life I lead ... haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flahute Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 Having my first ever pour of OBSK........hmmm.......now I see why this is the most popular of the ten recipes (going by the SB poll). I have 2 in the bunker but think I should go grab a couple more while they are available locally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlounderinDC Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 EC12. After my Sooners laid an egg in Fort Worth I needed some whiskey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

393foureyedfox Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 9 of us around a campfire in the woods last night. I brought a WT101 and a Larceny, another brought RR90, another some Kirkland 6/80. The RR guy didnt really care for his (was a gift),and the Krikland guy realized he liked Larceny and theres more to whiskey than cheap blends. I sent him home with the rest of the bottle, hoping he'll come around and see the light. I love camping this time of year, when its in the 40's at night. Habanero-cheese grilled ribeye sandwich and some Larceny and I was having a great night! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
