Spent the day working on a new yard project. Lots of picking, digging, shoveling and wheelbarrelin' dirt. Smoked a pork butt, and filled my belly. and then some, with it. Collapsed into my chair by a roaring fire in the outdoor fireplace and medicated my achin ' GI back with a magnificent pour of PHC Blend of Mashbills. This bourbon again shows that it is one of the most truly special and greatest whiskies to have ever crossed my lips, ever...

Having some OS7y tonight while sitting by the fire. I was listening to my radio and I thought it was pretty ironic that a song a by George Jones came on, "The king is gone and so are you".. I broke the seal on a Jim Beam decanter that looks like Elvis...... What a line.

A fire + some old Beam + George Jones = A nice evening

yesterday had some '87 Old Fitz BiB that a buddy shared with me that was wonderful. Finished the night with a double pour of OC10 and ribeye with the lady.

Drinking some Henry McKenna 10 yr BIB. Lovely stuff.

+1. Don't remember ever enjoying it as much as last night. It was a consolation of sorts for coming back from FL about a month too soon.

OGD114, yes this what bourbon is all about. Great taste, helluva value, and consistent.

A buddy brought me a bottle a few weeks back, and it's disappearing rapidly. You are right, lovely stuff. On a hunch, I went to the store where I thought he would have gotten it. Bingo. . a couple more found their way home with me. Enjoying some right now

I find myself in full agreement.

Sitting on the patio, reading book and having a 1792 8yr private selection that I had bunkered away from a few years ago.

Great pour, should have bought more.

Working on the bottom third of a handle of EWBIB. It is wonderful on its own or in a cocktail. I got the bottle for a twenty dollar bill. I'm very glad it has come to Minnesota in recent years.

A couple pours of a store pick HMcK 10yr. This is a very nice pick and this bottle won't be around long.

against my better judgement, went to a see a spoof rap band with some friends tonight. Had some WT101, some 4RYL, and fortunately some SAOS BP rye I smuggled in. still, it was not enough to ease the assault on my ears or the abomination to music.

yes, that was my first time ever with 4RYL. not bad, but nothing significant over any 80 proofer Ive had either.

Having a pour of OGD 114. Finding that as I have the bottle open longer, I'm enjoying it more.

CEHTSB and right now it's coming off as a smoother ER but not sure it's worth 2x the price (though I got this one on clearance and Eagle Rare's been climbing in price along with the rest of BT lately...). Either way, feeling satisfied in the moment tonight.

Ended last night with CEHTSiB and the wife had a pour of EC12. I love that she enjoys drinking bourbon now.

It does make it easier to justify buying some extra.

This has been a real advance in my life too. While George Thoroughgood likes to drink alone, I have mixed feelings about it. Having the wife drink too solves that problem.
