Prof_Stack Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 Knob Creek Rye - neat in a Glencairne. Pretty assertive rye, which I like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cracked open my first bottle of OF Signature last week and really enjoyed that first pour. I'm sipping some WT101 Rye at the moment but you guys inspired me to revisit the sig next.

ken_mays Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 EWSB 2003. I also have a bottle of the 2002 open and I'd like to get this one knocked out. I think I will hit some scotch before I call it a night though. Guys on another forum were talking scotch today and got me wanting some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry in WashDC Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 WTRB Batch 3 with ice - we had a BAD storm Tuesday, and I have woodbits all over the yard. SOMEBODY has to clean this up tomorrow. Wonder who that will be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flahute Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 Trying to fall back in love with Elmer T Lee and it's not working. I have a bottle I've been revisiting here and there and it never lives up to the ETL from a few years ago that I loved. Could be single barrel variation, could be that BT is rushing it out the door due to demand. Right now, I'm at a point where I don't care to chase it any more. It's not worth the effort. Maybe some day in the future when things settle down, it will be good again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've passed on a few in the past year and I'm not even looking, let alone chasing. I'm not even a buyer anymore if the price isn't right (above $35).

Wish I could even find one, I'd probably pay up to 45 to try it. Like trying to find a damn unicorn around here.

Jazz Nut Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 Started the evening out with Buffalo Trace Experimental 12 year old bourbon from floor #9, really good stuff--good mouthfeel and rich bourbon with fruit to balance out. I have Knob Creek 2001 on deck as well as a single barrel SAOS 11 year (47% or so). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry in WashDC Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 (edited) I'm with Paddy and Steve on the recent ETL - finished my last one a month ago and have no intention to buy another anytime soon. OTOH, I'm halfway through an impulse buy of JDSiBBP (the 132.4) and am taking it below the mid-point as you read this. I could buy some more of these.

flahute Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 Enjoying some EC12 tonight. Yes, actual 12. Though I have a stash I purchased before it went away, I've been giving the NAS a whirl the past few weeks. I came across a random 12 two days ago while on the road and decided to open it straight away since I had just finished the NAS. I have to say that I prefer the 12 by a large margin.

Tennessee Dave Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 Last couple of pours of this one. Doesn't taste the same to me as it did a few years ago. Maybe my tastes have changed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTNBourbon Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 Opened a new bottle of this Hancock's President's Reserve Single Barrel, really smooth, nice, but for the price, would probably not buy again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTNBourbon Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 (edited) Just did a pour of Jim Beam Signature Craft Quarter Cask Finished Small Batch (3rd Release), compared to the Hancock's, I would take this one. Smooth, but not as smooth as the Hancock's, but a bigger bourbon feel on the finish, to me for a lower proof, a way better finish. Overall, the Quarter Cask is a pretty tasty bourbon, forgot what I paid for it. Edited July 30, 2016 by MTNBourbon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Journeyman Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 (edited) Sipping a bit of FRSBPS OESO Oregon Bartenders Guild selected, 54% ABV, aged 12 years 2 months. Added just a touch of water. Lots of oak and spiciness--very nice. This is the only Private Selection I've tried but have an OESK to break into that I'm looking forward to.

Kyjd75 Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 Working on my last bottle of HHSS#2. When it's gone, it's gone. But I am reminded once again of how great this bourbon is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
