I can't even blame consumption for that one as it was my first pour. Jeeze...... 2 hours ago, Old Dusty said: Glad you got a good barrel of the Reb! I appear to have lucked out. Fingers crossed for the other bottles I have. I'm continuing the theme this evening with another pour of RY10yr SiB (and I spelled it right this time!)

If you count the whole table, we had GTS, THH, ORVW, Lot B, ETL, RHF, W12 and probably a few others that I didn't see. Plus beers and food. Pic is dark but left front going clockwise around the table is garbanzobean (Eric), meadeweber (Jason), jfw (Joe) and then back right working to front is stoopsie (Howie), his buddy Kevin, Charlutz (Charlie) and mdbourbon (Scott). We had a great time and it was good to put faces to names. Thanks fellas! PS - pic was just before we left, thus the high incidence of water and lack of whiskey (we drank it all). Good looking crew! It's nice to see you guys having a bit of fun, and fellowship. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That be what I'm pouring tonight. Just like Campbell's Soup. "Mmmm Mmmm Good." Cheers! Joe Sounds like a good vatting, Joe! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It dissipated a bit was still there some after a while. Other than that I get some sweet smell and then a spiciness (curry?). I dont really get any oak. The mouthfeel is very syrupy and the dominant taste is sweetness. At the end i get a bit of spice and then finally the oak as it fades out. The finish is the most balanced of the whole experience with sweet, spice, and oak all together for a short bit but the palate is so syrupy sweet that its really one dimensional. Way sweeter than i expected. My experience may have been compromised by having some Stagg Jr. just before this. Nice desciption of it. I'm gonna pour another glass tonight and i'll put the bottle away a for few week and i'll let the oxydation operate. I love the Stagg Jr, but it's hard to staste something after that, which batch is it ? Cheers ! Will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flahute Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 No themes tonight. Just mixing it up with bourbons I like. ECNAS first and I'm not getting the oak complexity I've gotten in previous pours this week. Followed with 4RSmB. Singing a very strong tune tonight in a familiar way. Finishing with WTRB 112 and for whatever reason, this is the clear winner tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beasled Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 4R SmBLE 2016. Been open a month or so and even with water it's hot as fuck. Kinda hoped it would have mellowed a bit by now. Not entirely unpleasant though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Limegoldconvertible68 Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 I'm enjoying a solid pour of Johnny Drum Private Stock tonight. Down to only a few pours left in the bottle. I can see myself getting another bottle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MTNBourbon Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 Opened up this bottle tonight, not too bad for $19, definitely not the Signature level, but good for mixing. Let's give it a few more try's as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paddy Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 It's been raining a lot of late, as the creeks and rivers are full. In the spirit, I went with Knob Creek SB followed by Rowan's Creek. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kpiz Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 Had another big helping of an ER10 store pick. This is nice and oaky.

Given the supply pressures on BT in general, I'm surprised an ER barrel sat around for an extra year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
