Patrick_OKC Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 A dash or two of heaven hill (yes, 80 proof, 3 yrs), followed by EWSB 2003, then James pepper 1776 bourbon, closed with Stagg Jr from first release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigRich Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Last night was watching the Dawgs help ND shoot themselves in the foot at a neighbor's house. GD Barrel Select and an Old Scout BP Rye were what I drank.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't go wrong with their limited editions, I've never had one that I didn't enjoy. Living in Europe, I don't have access to the private selection which is sad, because those are pretty tasty too, hopefully, limited are available here.

flahute Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 I've been up in Whistler for a conference since Wednesday, just getting back. Since the bourbon selection stinks in Canada, I brought my own. A partial bottle of RRSiB (Total Wine store pick) made the journey and did not come back. Between the pre dinner pours and post dinner nightcaps, I finished it off and boy was I happy to have it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It hits the spot (neat) when I'm in the mood for something high proof, but it seems to get worse as the proof comes down. I've been working on this bottle for a while now and am struggling to get through it. The remaining 1/4 of this bottle may be best used as the base for high-proof old fashioneds... Duuuuude, you must not have seen my posts about how to make batch 1 tolerable. Dilute it with OC8 (if you have it there), BT, or ER10. Takes the sting out and rounds out the offensive notes. Sorry you've been trying to suffer through this one with only water! (As you know, it does not work). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swamp55 Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Having a healthy pour of ER10 as the early tropical storm force winds begin to arrive in my area. The really "interesting" weather should be arriving over the next 6-8 hours. Probably will be without power soon. So, I'll catch up with you good folks when civilization returns!

I really don't care for Stagg Jr. But the extra proof points goes very well with OC8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gah, that sounds familiar now that you mention it. Thanks for the reminder. No OC8 in these parts but I almost always have some ER10 open, so I'll try that blend this week. Strange stuff this batch 1... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully Florida has its infrastructure laid out better than Houston. Thanks for the thoughts. guys. Irma has now mainly passed by the Tampa Bay area and I am still here, and still working on that bottle of ER10! The maximum winds here were "only" Category 1 Hurricane force, much lower than had been feared would happen as recently as yesterday. All it took was a slight path deviation to the east today to spare my area the worst of the storm. Incredibly, I currently even still have electric power! (Knock on wood...) Of course, the folks in the Keys, and those in the Marco Island and Naples areas got clobbered badly. And, many others elsewhere in the state will have suffered significant losses, no doubt. Best of luck to all my fellow Floridians. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does. Blaum Bros have always been upfront that it's not their juice (yet, still aging). The name "Knotter Bourbon" is tongue-in-cheek nod to "Not Our Bourbon".

Blaum Bros. Knotter Bourbon 10yr CS. At $78 for a bottle though, I decided to pass. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
