Hop Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 (edited) Last night after a long week that I thought was over until this morning I treated myself to a small pours of the following PVW20 - good but of course it was "oaky" PVW15 - very good OWA - very good as well, now maybe it was due to the two pours earlier but I thought there was little difference in the PVW15 and the OWA and due to that I had several pours of it And I solidified plans to visit family in Bardstown toward the end of KBF week - nice to have family... Getting tickets to Bourbon, Cigars, & Jazz and possibly the Sampler but since we are driving in on the day of the Sampler we may not make it.

If you have a chance, you should definitely stop by the General Nelson (either the Gazebo, or just look for the SB or GBS flags with idiots sitting around in front of their rooms). Depending where in B'town, walking might be recommended Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a bourbon I could literally have bought a dozen of if I'd wanted--and a mere 2.5 years ago. I even found it on clearance at around $60 at one store, which finally roped me in. Now later editions are on shelves for $150-$300. And to think, a number of old timers will read this post and laugh about how they let BTAC and Van Winkle stock rot on shelves for years. This boom. A really good thing for American Spirits, but it's heck on Trophy Hunters and those of us who enjoy a good deal on something a little different. This edition is rumored to be at least 14 years old, and has a nice buttery oakiness that I have tasted in well aged older bourbons. I have remarked before that it has a room-filling nose, though the palate falls a bit short of that. The finish in particular is a bit watery tonight, but the overall package is still great.

LCWoody Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 (edited) Having some Barrell Bourbon batch 5. This is a very good bourbon. Taste a lot like GD9y, but a lot more balanced, and flavor. Edited September 4, 2016 by LCWoody Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fort Knox Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 Switched off to some SA Contradiction for my next pour. Trying to drown the sorrows of a Tar Heel loss to the Dawgs.

Hop Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 Fractured my thumb replacing front brake pads on my daughters car this morning so I've been fairly deep into the bourbon on the month RRSB this afternoon and evening. Not bad but you absolutely know it's there... the thumb not the bourbon - of course you know the bourbon is there... maybe more than I thought Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbroo5880i Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 I generally work through an open bottle or two before opening something else up. This weekend has been a little bit of a change. I started out with a little Blanton's last night followed by MM PS. Tonight, I opted for KCSB. A little variety is nice sometimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry in WashDC Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 (edited) A really hefty pour of a store pick (Pearson's) of Blanton's. I've waited all day for this.

There are a lot of nerves around the area, I'll have a drink in your honor. If anybody is wondering, I have broken a leg, arm, collar bone and fractured bones in both hands. Alcohol was involved once... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
