I had it in the same sitting as some ORVW10 and could not decide which one was better. Wow! I wish I had that "problem." I get a little sweetness but nothing like Weller Centennial as a comparison. I wish I did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clueby Posted December 25, 2016 Share Posted December 25, 2016 Had some more FRSB last night at the club I was playing music at. I'm really liking that stuff. Gonna have to get a bottle. After the glass was empty there was such a vanilla scent to the glass. Tonight so far it's been some EW Egg Nog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whiskey Dick Posted December 25, 2016 Share Posted December 25, 2016 not a bourbon, but finally cracked open my gifted bottle of 7 year 99 proof OS rye that I've had for over a year. My friends know I loved the OS BP rye, and by then, all you could find was the 99 proofer, so my wife's friend gave me one of those. Gotta say, even at 99 proof, it's a good drink. I finished off a bottle of the barrel proof the other day (glad I still have 5 more!), and thought it a good time to try the 99 proofer. happy xmas!

mortre Posted December 25, 2016 Share Posted December 25, 2016 I'm enjoying some RR Single Barrel (Bourbon, not Rye). Unfortunately my wife can sniff out anything from Wild Turkey from across the room, and she hates the "funk" as she calls it.Sent from my Nexus 6 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Special Reserve Posted December 25, 2016 Share Posted December 25, 2016 My desire to experiment has bubbled to the surface. I went back to the RY SB 10. This time I poured a small pour and let it sit for about 30 minutes. I seemed to lose some of alcohol in the nose and gained a bit of sweetness. In my previous comparisons to Weller Centennial, the Weller Centennial has been opened for many months while the RY only opened a few days. The jury is out on this one. Would I buy another, I think so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil T Posted December 25, 2016 Share Posted December 25, 2016 Doing a little cooking before Amy's family get together this morning. Since I won't be driving, some store select FRSB, 100 proof goodness. Peace on earth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richnimrod Posted December 25, 2016 Share Posted December 25, 2016 I'm about to fill my flask with ER17 to take over to the relatives (my wife's side, who are beer and wine drinkers) for the annual Christmas Dinner/Celebration/Gift Exchange. ...An all afternoon affair, so a few pours of something worth tipping over on Christmas is in order. I'm sure I will enjoy however much of it drain. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
