Richnimrod Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 Parker's Heritage 24-year old BIB in honor of the passing of Parker Beam, who gave us all so much great whiskey. Cheers to his family who must have been suffering unimaginably as he dwindled away before their eyes. So sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry in WashDC Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 (edited) Finished the last 2 oz. of my one and only KC 2001 (bottle 12,392 of Batch 1) and the last 2 oz. of a 4R SmB I opened last week. Clemson v. Alabama is on now. It better get more exciting, or I'm going to have to go find something else to finish off. Edit -- Yeah, last week. EARLY last week. @ 3 to 4 oz. a night, a 750ml (25+oz.) lasts about 7 or 8 days. Plus, it's been too cold to go outside. Just saying . . . Not that YOU guys should be judgmental.

Louisiana Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 I ain't judging you Harry. Hell I'm right there with you on the oz. per night! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louisiana Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 It's been cold down here for several days. The cows eat way more when it's cold. And we've been taking a pick axe to break the ice in the water troughs for the last 3 days. When it gets like this in Louisiana what is a man to do? Drink really good whiskey to keep him warm. This game tonight is making the whiskey taste good too. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry in WashDC Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 Well, the game just more exciting (Clemson scored). I'm thirsty, too. Somebody just mentioned ice. I have an open JD BP available. It's 18 degrees outside. Gotta melt that ice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry in WashDC Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 Paddy, this cold weather is tough for us Mason-Dixoners to deal with. Haven't been outside in five days, and my supply of consumables near the TV is suffering. After all, I have a spouse who is trapped inside, too, and can watch my every move. Luckily, she takes bathroom breaks, . . . Thanks to Rich mentioning it on another thread, thus reminding me I had it, I retrieved my 1/2 bottle of JD SiB BP in its black box which is hard to see in the corner of the TV room, that corner being close to where I sit. Ah, life is good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louisiana Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 This game is really confusing. I'm going for Clemson, only because I can't stand Alabama. 24-21 now. This is going to be an interesting finish. Still enjoying the 1792FP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It ended up being the crowning pour of a multi-pour extravaganza. The only one to beat out RY10SiB, OGD 114, ER10, and my (Old) Old Forester Blend: 30% paper label 86 -- and 70% OFSig.

I have no dog in the fight in spite of having some rabid Bama fan friends (like, they are at the game and they are MY age for goodness' sake, and they aren't even grads!) . So, CLIMSSON it is. I passed on a 1792 FP before Christmas - I'd promised my wife I'd only buy wine until after New Years. The idea was that I'd work down my stash. Well, I have. The 1792FP is first on my list, thanks to the comments by you all. I hope it's not all gone by the time I get back out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bourbs bro Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 how is that 1792 full proof?

I also have some of the Sweet Wheat -- which is solid, and indeed quite sweet, but the Full Proof is a different animal altogether. I dunno --- maybe go back and stare some more!

Charlutz Posted January 10, 2017 Author Share Posted January 10, 2017 Started by finishing off the bread pudding my wife made with hard sauce made with JD. While eating that I was sipping on some 1792FP. I like it, but not sure this bottle is $43 good. Only about a third of the way through and still playing around with it. After that, a pour of PHC10 in his memory. This is very woody, and in a good way. Happy with the bottle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meadeweber Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 Add me as a 1792 FP fan. Had another pour last night with a little splash of water. Great flavors. I like it more and more as I'm working through the bottle. I have not seen any store selections but would love to try one of those as well.

0895 Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 Tonight I'm revisiting Old Forester 1920 after leaving the bottle 3/4 full for several weeks. Wow has this gotten good! Nice notes of black cherries, caramel, and some other stuff that 2 generous pours are preventing me from describing right now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acs2653 Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 It's been a great evening. Started off with an old fashion, then had a pour of weller 12, the OF birthday bourbon. I then came home and had SOAS Single Barrel, and am currently working on a pour of Barrel Bourbon batch 009.

kcgumbohead Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 Had a pour of HMcK Bib that I recently opened and enjoy more with each pour. This one was in memory of Mr Beam. On a different happier note, I see several 1792FP posts, is the 2017batch out already? Its been gone from GA shelves for months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishnbowljoe Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 Well, somehow I managed to have a fairly decent day at work for a change. So I got home from work, did a few chores, and decided to experiment.......again. Yet another one of my Weller concoctions. This time I vatted a PS Weller SR, Binny's OWA and Weller 12. It's been a while since I've had a Weller Centennial open, but if my palate memory serves me correctly, this vatting is pretty gosh darned close to Centennial and/or the original SB blend. I'll have to check my inventory/spreadsheet and see if I have more of what I used. If so, I may have come up with what I'll be bringing to our get together in April. Cheers!
