BDanner Posted October 10, 2016 Share Posted October 10, 2016 Last night I started with a pour of Stagg Jr, proofed down to 100 (thanks to the handy proof calculator on SB.com). Still not getting there for me. It's still very astringent. Finished up with a pour of OGD114 while I watched the "debate". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFerguson Posted October 10, 2016 Share Posted October 10, 2016 MM at the airport bar. Not the most interesting pour, but it helping the time pass by. B Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tanger11 Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 Starting my 40th birthday week with a pour of WhistlePig 15. All pours this week will be made with a heavy hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BDanner Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 (edited) Got home from taking my daughter to soccer practice at 9:45 and couldn't decide on anything, so I opened a 375 of MM I'd been gifted. Not too bad while I watch and see if the Panthers can avoid losing their 4th game of the season. Edited October 11, 2016 by BDanner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You sir, are easily pleased... a commendable and worthy characteristic to have, especially in today's market for Bourbon. I find DN1843 to be a bit underwhelming; but very useful to mingle with those Bourbons I've found too woody. It seems to blend well with everything I've tried it on, and has yielded nice results most of the time. Ooooh. Thanks, Rich. My wife bought me a DN because I didn't have one. Now I know what to do with the rest of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kpiz Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 The apple brandy I opened didn't hit the spot, so I switched over to bourbon. This Charter 101 store pick is resetting my palate with its corny sweetness. May go to rum for dessert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ravensfire Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Stagg Jr tonight. Just needed something with a good kick Sent from my SM-T700 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flahute Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Revisiting 4RSmB for the first time in a long time. Forgot how good of a value this is. I always drink these extremely fast which is why I haven't opened one in a while. Following with some KC 9yr age stated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BDanner Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 A new one for me last night. Just opened my CEHT SmB. Very nice! Sweet and spicy, though I found that it really benefits from a small splash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FacePlant Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 (edited) I had another pour of a store barrel purchase KC Single Barrel last night. I've had KC many times BUT this is one very special bottling. Barrel was filled an enter into warehouse L Dec 1st 2004 and recently bottled in late Aug 2016 at nearly 12 yrs. Proofed at 129.1. I had my wife do a blind taste test for me and a friend. The KCSingleB against ECBP, Stagg Jr (130) and Belle Meade SB 9yr at 117. On both cards the KCSB was a runaway best. Even though I knew what 4 bottles were picked, and since I have become a big fan of the Belle Meade recently, I had the order all wrong. In fact blind I only got Stagg correct. At that point we had to run back to the store and bunker up immediately. Retail is $36 for a 750. If you're in the area PM me and I'll give up the location.

gmrv4 Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 Buddy sent me a text saying he was parched. I thought about it a bit and decided that I too was a bit parched and I could offer a remedy. We each got one last pour out of a bottle of ETL. Contentment ensued. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richdel Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 Reseeded the front lawn today, worked up quite the thirst. NHL season opener was reason enough to have a few pours. First up was my new acquisition, OWA107. Wow, never had it before. So smooth. Nose on it reminded me of cream soda. Needless to say, I was very impressed. Moving on to pour #2, FR PS OESK, and the 3rd period of the Blues and Blackhawks. It has been a good night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
