Ancient Age BIB on a warm(ish), sunny day. So nice to see the snow and ice melting that I even sat outside to enjoy my pour. Dixie Dew might be in order to continue the spring day mood!

Last night started with some free Maker's Mark which inspired me follow it with a dip into the stash of Parker's Heritage Wheat. It was a good night!

Cool Hank. The AA BIB is pretty darned good stuff. Wish I had more. One 750 and 2-200 ml's are all I have left. :rolleyes:

Enjoy the day and your pour.

Been a rough day at work. Just had a heavy pour of JBST (BC) I'm just getting rid of old stock. I'm thinking I'm gonna have a third. Maybe a fourth tonight.

I was up in Whistler the past three days on a photo shoot for a project I recently completed and knowing that my client is not a bourbon drinker, and, knowing from past experience that there is no good bourbon to be found in Whistler liquor stores, I brought up my own bottle of Eagle Rare 10 to share. The only one interested was the contractor (who is Canadian) and he was quite pleased to have some. Now that I'm back home, I'm polishing off my bottle of ECBP batch 3. I continue to be amazed by the quality of this whiskey at the price.

FR gift shop OESV to start with a nightcap of the BTEC 19yr French oak that I cracked yesterday.

Quite a fine Monday night.

Had a pour of store select BT followed by OGD114--quite the contrast. Might finish the night with another pour of BT or FRSB.

Last night it was a rather substantial amount of Angels Envy bourbon, rye and assorted cocktails with a couple of friends. And the angel of course! Always fun to attend the AE cask strength parties and to visit with Wes again. This was the first time that an event was held in Atlanta. So in the past three years I have attend one in a different state each year starting with Louisville, KY in 2013, Nashville, TN last year and of course Atlanta this year.

OWA and now a pour of Makers 46. No, OWA is not "basically" Pappy. However, that it is not Pappy does not diminish that the fact that it IS a really solid pour. Makers 46 is another solid mid-shelf pour that adds a bit more oak to the wheater profile. I like them both.

VOBBIB6. Either the harsh edges have been shaven off by oxidation or I've become inured to the medicinal note - this is fine bourbon today.

Tonight a nice pour of Bookers Small Batch Barrel Proof 6-8 Yr. Old (Batch C04-A-28) (128.6 Proof). Still have about 1/4 bottle left, slowly trying to finish it off.

Had another rough day. not for the better. What should I crack from the bunker? BT? WTKS? Michters US-1? EWSB 03? EWSB 04? JDNo7?

Had to break out some ETL a little earlier than normal after the details of this Foles trade came down. Awful trade. Good whiskey.

Finishing up my evening of small pours with Rock Town Single Barrel Reserve Bourbon Whiskey Cask Strength. I do recommend this to those with an ability to appreciate a well made young whiskey.

WTKS. Never tried but I like their stuff more and more.

Yeah, Kentucky Spirit is a good one, one of my favs.

Having some FO15y tonight. It's my least favorite of the OB line. I will not be buying another.

For those following along with my kitchen project, well, we have the cooktop, fridge, double oven, sink, dishwasher and garbage disposer all fully up and running, and there are now little post-it notes on all the cabinets talking about where things will go.

We still need a last coat of paint, floor polyurethane, the punch list, and then we may be done. Give it three weeks or so.

The roof has stopped leaking except over the porch, and I'm okay with that. This winter can't end soon enough, except I have been skiing two weeks in a row and will be going again Saturday.

Unwinding with OGD114 on rocks tonight, and it looks like a lot of SB.com people have been enjoying this same bourbon lately. I'm sad I can't find it for $21/bottle anymore...

I know some Rams fans who would be willing to drive Bradford to the airport. I don't understand what the Eagles are thinking.

Regardless, I'm enjoying a pour of a store select BT and will probably follow it with W12.
