MOwhisky4me Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 Listening to the rain come down for the 2nd day in a row here in Mid-Missouri while I sip on some Old Weller Antique. Very nice warm feeling building inside to counter the cold and wet outside!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Vino Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 FR PS OBSF. 10Y 5M. 63%. While grilling in Scottish Moor-line conditions: 60 degree temps/heavy mist in late December. Killed the bottle - replacement on line. Followed by second to last pour of Forged Oak. I won't replace it, but 3 ounces with two cubes made me appreciate the nuances of flavor. I have been on a mission to clean out the the nearly-empties. The Forged Oak is the last to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlutz Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 Tailgated this morning. Relaxed this afternoon. Watching some Game of Thrones and started with some Rittenhouse BIB and moved to McKenna BIB. Both with a single cube in the xmas gift from the family - a Yeti tumbler. It's a good night. PS - tasting leather, in a good way, in the McKenna. Don't remember tasting that so predominantly before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya know, I think that may be the first time I've had either of the HHSS's chilled. I went with it in the new glass because I felt like going with something special to commemorate both the end of Christmas weekend and the thoughtfulness of this gift from my brother. It did work well and hit the spot, but I would have to say that I prefer both releases of the HHSS served neat. But, that doesn't diminish my thoughts on the glass. I like it, and it will get a fair amount of usage, here. Chilled bourbons have a regular spot on my rotation.

OldDrinker1978 Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 Small pour of OGD114. Still an up and down for me with this Bourbon. Today I really enjoy its sweet chocolate brownie / ginger bread flavours on other days the spice kick / heat is just a little too over the top for me...

Tony Santana Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 Winter has finally hit here. Spent about an hour dealing with snow eradication, needed a pour to warm me up when I came in. I'm getting close to finishing a blend I put together - some OFBB '13, Barterhouse, a Willett 10 year and a dash of MM. Really hits the spot.

Preceded those with an OWA107. Waiting on the result of MNF to decide on the next pour. If the outcome is favorable, I'll reward myself with some '15 GTS.

Though the Bengals lost (bummer), I did win my fantasy football league for the second year in a row, so the Stagg is currently in my glass.

I'm all over the place. It just depends on my mood, and what if anything, I'm trying to get accomplished.... But, HH BIB 6yr is a year long staple out of the fridge.
