Killed my first Blanton’s SFTB. The bottle lasted me nearly a year and I think this bourbon is something special. Very complex and a punch in the mouth. I understand why people advocate that it should be the 6th BTAC bottle. I’ve got two more in the bunker but killing this one has me contemplating making an order to have some more shipped across the pond.

Going to have to replace this one. 

King of the Mash Bill 2 offerings, for my money.

Going to save the bottle and use it for my first batch of Grandpa Weller four grain.

It might be a while I rebuy as I need to clear some bunker space. As soon I do I'll getting another GTS JR for my favorite blend.

Finished this off while wrapping gifts tonight.  I don't have a replacement yet. My last bourbon purchase was followed by a text from the wife:

 

"Jesus Christ.  Stop buying liquor."

 

She gets a text notification whenever our credit card is used. In her defense, I bought a good 15-20 bottles over a two week period leading up to the above text.....several of which were a bit pricey. I was actually in another LS already when the text came through. Trying to decide if I should get a 3rd bottle of ER10. So, I guess I'm on a buying freeze for the time being.  Unless I find something I just can't pass up of course.

Good thing I have (3) more in the bunker and plenty of LS's in my area with full shelves!

 

Cheers!

Just gave a 4R yellow gift box to my mailman. Nice guy and he does a great job.

Are you saying you gave him a gift box with an empty 4R bottle in it?!?!  Dayum!  You must be the same house that gave Charlie Brown the rock at Halloween!  ;)

1 - empties are worth a lot on ebay

2 - federal employees are way overpaid.

Last pour of my first bottle of Booker's. C03-I-17. I've had many others since buying this one but I kept it around. It was my first high proof bottle I bought after trying a pour in a bar. I always drank mostly JB and WSR and the occasional WR or KC100. Needed to make some room in the cabinet so finally finishing it off.  Need to finish off a 9YKC100 as well. First world problems!

Continuing to clear out near empties. This one too has more than a casual resemblance  to the better bottlings of ER17.

I like CT. For some reason it's impossible to get in NC, like much of the Buffalo Trace line.no freaking idea why. Salute.

We had some room in the recycle bin for a change, so I decided to donate these today. The OWA and HH6 have been empty for a while, and FWIW I decanted the contents of the ps handles of Weller SR and BT. The only thing I've actually emptied lately is a ps BT 750. I'm gonna hold on to that one though. There's a distinct possibility that I just might use it for one of my blends, or another decanting. ^_^

 

Biba! Joe

This is tasting amazing tonight. I’ll seek out another once I get my stash dwindled down a bit.

Manageability, that's what I'm talking about.;)

Killed off a bourbon cream last night. Pulling another one out of the bunker and putting it in the fridge tonight.

Just had (3) pours of this to finish it off... I got an overwhelming taste of peanuts on this one and likely won't be buying another 1792 unless it's the full proof.

Time to kickoff the holiday weekend in style. Too bad I need to get some of the latest batch of this. Maybe I can stop before Christmas and get more.a1a4515f91bf2a762bea3179b7cc32bd.jpg
