flahute Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 I was in China for work from Thursday until this morning. I was counting on being shut out for bourbon drinking but I was pleasantly surprised to discover that my client had some BT and WTRB on hand and the latter was enjoyed very much. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weird because every single LS I go to in SC and GA has larceny in handles liters and fifths stacked up. Larceny in a cask strength/ single barrel offering would be a regular buy for me.

Larceny in a cask strength/ single barrel offering would be a regular buy for me. And yet, Larceny is not distributed in every state yet because they don't have enough. You may think that they could not be stacked up as much where you shop in order to spread it around but HH prefers to establish a presence in each market with continuous supply before expanding to new ones. Also keep in mind that there's a lot of younger whiskey in Larceny than the 10yr old in the RY. They have a VERY long way to go to get enough 10yr old wheated to distribute nationally if they wanted to. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FacePlant Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 International package received recently AND I finally have time to play. Never had a SBS of these 3 before. It's remarkable just how the taste profile holds through all three strengths. For tonight the gold is a BIG step forward with SFTB being a very pleasant bump. You guy's and gals stop by for a little Holiday Cheer. Best wishes for a warm and blessed season. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bourbon Fanatic Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 I'm not as fortunate as @FacePlant, so I don't have SFTB or Gold, but I saw his post and it made me want a pour of my Blanton's. Cheers! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0895 Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 While not a big beam fan, this is one I always seem to enjoy. I was really happy to find this in the bourbon advent calendar today. Yum! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoustonNit Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 Had some HW DR store pick at a bar and HWMW. At home had some OWA, Blanton's and FC 6yr.Fighting Cock is winning tonight. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baker's isn't given enough love; it's something I never buy a bottle of for whatever reason but I always really enjoy it every time I have a pour at a bar. I should really get around to actually owning a bottle one of these days. Tonight, I started off with a recently opened 2017 EC18 that's slowly growing on me, followed up by 1oz pours of ECBP B517, OF1920 and OF1897. Not a bad night on the whole.

If you ever see an older Baker's that has the gold ring around the wax, my experience has been that they are even better than the current stuff. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeeTen Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 (edited) Another wee dram of Blanton's Gold tonite - really hitting the sweet spot before bed (I'm OLD!). Still trying to recover from Saturday nite's GBS meeting! Edited December 13, 2017 by GeeTen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcbt Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 (edited) Plain old MM as it's the only bourbon at the hotel bar. Tasting mighty nice by the lobby fireplace on this frigid night in DC tho. Edited December 13, 2017 by dcbt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EarthQuake Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 Signed up for a lotto this weekend, my wife got the call and came home from work with a bottle of ETL. Cranked it open and it's rather nice. I can see the family resemblance to Blanton's for sure, though I may like the ETL a little more. More research is needed.

Patrick_OKC Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 started with a dollop of ER10 SB, followed by some CEHT BP, and then I finally opened a PHC Barrel Finished that I bought 5 years ago. I had been on a BT jag the last few weeks until opening the PHC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulO Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 It had been a while, so I opened an OGD 114 that had been stashed when we were worried about its' demise. There is a lot of flavor here. This stands shoulder to shoulder with the other barrel proofers I've tried. Hard to believe for the $. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCwhammie Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 I’m having a pour of RR 10yr. This is one of my absolute go to pours that is a flavor bomb for 90 Proof. It just never disappoints. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basil Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 Finishing off a flask I filled yesterday for a Christmas party. Evan Williams Single Barrel. Quite nice for the price. I'll definitely replace the bottle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
