Made a julep with MM46 and getting another ready for Derby post time.

The Woodford Reserve Turf Classic was a lot more exciting than its namesake bourbon, by the way. What a finish.

I like for my first pours on Saturdays and Sundays to be premiums before moving on to more everyday pours. Today I went with Bookers 25th while I sit on the front patio. Just a superb bourbon to take your time with.

First Derby I've watched in 20 years at least. PHC Blend of Mashbills to mark the occasion.

Well I'm drinking Woodford Reserve because A) it is the OFFICIAL bourbon of the Kentucky Derby and B) it's one of my "every day" choices anyway.

After another day of errands and yard work steaks on the grill and now a front porch cigar and sips neat. Started with ER with a nice splash of EHT BP on top and now some EHT Cured Oak, ahhhh just about a perfect evening.

Haven't found the Cured Oak yet, but enjoying a sip of the base model EHT Small Batch on my back porch.

Beautiful evening here in SE Kentucky...

I recommend the Cured Oak if you can find it but there wasn't much of it unfortunately.

Sticking with the 4R but now to a SB Store Selection from P&M Liquors OESV at 9 yrs 9 mos 59.8% ABV - excellent and glad I picked up two when I got this one

What a beautiful day for the Derby! Attended a beautiful outdoor wedding and had a few small pours of Woodford DO. Found it to be pretty one dimensional, as well as pretty damn smooth. :cool:

On my second pour of Ezra Brooks 12. I don't usually double up on the same one, but I spied an opportunity to kill a bottle and took it so I could bring up one of the "on deck" bottles.

The Ezra is quite enjoyable and will stay in my rotation despite being an NDP. It's a reasonably balanced 12yr old bourbon for a good price that still reminds me of BT mashbill #2 even though it's really HH sourced.

A nice pour of WLW 125.3 while waiting for the coffee to finish brewing and reading this forum.

Life is good.

I had a pour of Four Roses 2011 Limited Edition Small Batch last night. Very satisfying.

EWBIB Old Fashioneds while grilling an elk roast on an 80 degree spring evening in lovely Northern Minnesota. If it gets better than that I don't think I could handle the excitement.

Last night, had two nice pours of my blend "Johnny #4" which is a blend of Rebel Yell & Makers 46, made a couple of weeks ago. I really got lucky, as I find it to be very enjoyable!

Tried MMCS last night from a friend's stash . . . decent, but not going to add it to my collection. I've never been a big fan of MM . . . prefer the Weller profile.

Yesterday I finished off a bottle of Fighting Cock 6-Yr, followed by a pour each of 4RSgleBrl and Medley Bros.

I've been drinking EC12 since I don't remember when. What I do remember is that it was always an adventure. Sometimes it was outstanding. Sometimes not so much. The last couple of years, though, it seems to have gained in consistency. Really enjoying it in the yard swing this weekend. The adventure seems to be gone but the enjoyment is making up for the lack of drama.

4 fingers of ECBP, which should last me all the way thru Game of Thrones and Mad Men. Just an outstanding bourbon...
