Just poured a glass of 2016 FR smb, added a few drop of water. You were right this edition needs water. Less hot on the nose, the flavors start to come out, lovely pour. Cheers !

BFerguson Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 Revisiting the WTAS tonight. Such a departure from recent LE offering from them. BSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BMartin42 Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 MM46. Received two as presents in the last couple days. Not my favorite but I'm enjoying more than typical tonight. The mouthfeel is much chewier than I remember. Could be my cold I've been fighting but better than I remember.

smokinjoe Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 (edited) An Everett's PS Weller 12. This one has been open for years, and has only a couple of inches left. Haven't touched it forever, but it is as good as i remember it. When I last put it back in my bar storage, I was careful to properly Feng Shui it's position in a prominent Southeast location with the label facing due West. Bingo! Worked like a charm. I may try and draw out more cherry notes for next time, but I'll have to consult my luapan to see where I put it. Northeast, perhaps ?

FWIW, mine isn't open, but it's in the very back northwest corner of my cabinet facing east. Cheers! Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golferpimp1 Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 Larceny for me tonight....working ok, wishing I had a few other options but I'm at the in laws. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbroo5880i Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 Enjoying a nice pour of FRSiB. Just the standard bottle. The most recent few bottles were a little disappointing as they weren't as enjoyable as those in the past. However, this barrel is hitting on all cylinders. A nose of cinnamon and caramel. A flavor with a slight hint of cherry, cinnamon and spice. This is the perfect Christmas season pour. Not bad for a $27 bottle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
$helby Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 Decided to revisit an open bottle of Booker's LE Rye. It's been several months since I had a pour with no drop off noticeable to my pallet . Gonna miss it when finally empty! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFerguson Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 After the WTAS, I moved over to a pour of JPS 17yr. Pretty decent night.BSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokinjoe Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 Looking at 4 days off and Christmas, so continuing going with oldies. One of my faves, a distilled 1964/bottled 1971 Old Charter BIB. Great butterscotch up front (so many from this era had this for some reason) with a big pop of cinnamon on the finish. A bit of co-cola in there mid palate. Besides being a sleeper but wonderful whiskey, the OC bottle and packaging is gorgeous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnyz28 Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 A rather disappointing SAOS 10yo SiB....Pretty one dimensional. My first SA and I feel a little let down. Hopefully it improves with some time in the bottle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flahute Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 Was posting in the fall thread by mistake so I'm transferring over here. I did pour that WLW I mentioned was on deck. Finishing the evening with some Booker's 25th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This one takes (and needs) a bit of water to dial it in. Taking it down to around 110 (from 118) really gets it in the 'sweet spot'. A fantastic 9 year/7 month old barrel selection!

Wedelstaedt Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 Enjoying some Booker's Noe's Secret. Last of the bottle. I probably can't finish it tonight though. If has been s fun bottle to experiment. Good batch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purdue3kgt Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 Last night I popped open a dusty find at a local LS, 2001 Old Fitzgerald Prime 86 proof. Was a very tasty pour-- glad I bought the 3 remaining! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
