Journeyman Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 Drinking BT tonight. I'm coming off a bout of the flu that completely removed my sense of smell. It's returning slowly, so the BT tastes a little off. Hopefully I'll be fully able to appreciate bourbon flavors again soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ended up chasing that with some ORVW and a pour of ECBP, thought about having a Rye or a Rum as a change of pace but the corn dominant brown liquids are tasting good tonight.

elmossle Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 Opened a fresh bottle of regular BT with dinner. After that, decided it was time to revisit some '08 WTKS and MAN was it good!! I will most likely be hitting this bottle once again this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b1gcountry Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 I tried some WR double oak for the first time. Waiter brought regular wr and I thought it didn't taste much different. The check came and said plain WR, so I went up to the bartender, who knew me, and said hey, give me a splash of the double oak. She poured me a whole drink and we bs'd for 15 minutes. It was pretty good. Reminded me of the Brandy Finish I had over the weekend. Minus the brandy. Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bourbon4all Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 After some charter 8 year I poured a too large OWA. Tasted good, added a small cube and tasted better. Added another and now it's great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoustonNit Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 'Twas a dusty evening at my favorite establishment across from the office. Started with Old Charter Proprieter's Reserve and boy o boy is this one special. Hadn't had it in a long time. This is a dusty old library kind of beautiful pour. Followed with Ancient Age Barrel 107 10yr. One of my favorites from that era. Finished with Old Charter 7yr old BIB. All three of these were singing and hitting all the right notes.I need a bar like this across from my office. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldFitzWithTheGoldLabel Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 I am going to the Amorphis and Swallow The Sun concert with@fifeman tonight.

heydobro Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 I just cracked open a new bottle of my Bourbon club's private selection of ECSB. A really great pour all around and especially around $30Sent from my SM-G920T using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JTaylor Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 Hitting some RR SmB SiB. Not bad, but I definitely prefer the SiB PS bottles I have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FacePlant Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 CEHT SiB, EC12, and now NC SP 12yr that's so fine it's probably superior to my opening rotation. Maybe it just feels right after 2 hrs in the dentist chair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlutz Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 Not sure what moved me, but reached for the PHC10 or PHC24, not sure what we're calling it. I'm calling it tasty. It's certainly oaky, but I like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vicious-Peanut Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 Gobble gobble 101 in an old fashioned with agave nectar. Beats simple syrup easily imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flahute Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 First pour from this Private Selection bottle of 10yr OESV. Wow. This is better than I remember from the pick. This is the spiciest E yeast I've ever had. There's a fair amount of barrel influence here as well (in a very, very good way). It was a short barrel - only 78 bottles - and clocks in at 125.4 proof.

Paddy Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 ^^^^The force looks strong in that one... On topic: I'm in the big leather chair sipping on HM BIB, and this bottle is going waaaaay too fast! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CardsandBourbon Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 (edited) Used to try my first Manhattan. I think I make a pretty good Manhattan. After that I paired a pour of Johnny Drum with some dark chocolate covered dried cranberries. Edited March 24, 2017 by CardsandBourbon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not making this up - it bears a resemblance to George T Stagg. The barrel influence here is what's bringing those same flavors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just thought I'd wait until you were getting low and they'd be a bit more appreciated, but...in reality, hell will probably freeze over first!
