mikeydk Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 I just opened these two up. Few Bourbon 93proof. Old Bardstown Straight Bourbon 90 proof. I am definitely enjoying the Bardstown. I'm unsure about the Few Bourbon. I generally like Few's Rye, but my first two impressions (single glass, 2 different nights) are that it's not yet ready for primetime. The Bardstown is fun. Woody, cherries, sweetish. Smells friggin great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0895 Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Tried rye, but it didn't taste right. Switched to Weller and it's "just right". 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bourserker Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Was traveling and finally scored one of these. Haven't gotten one since the old bottle design. Been enjoying it...not all in one night of course. Had a little this evening. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smokinjoe Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 For some damn reason, I’m actually watching the American Cornhole League Johnsonville Sausage Cornhole Championships on ESPN2, with a Fighting Cock 6 yr. Cornhole on TV is kinda like watching ESPN 40 years ago when they resorted to Sumo and Rodeo for content... 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JCwhammie Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 Sweet 16 basketball on the boob tube and the last pour of a 1.75 in my glass. Prior to this bottle I hadn’t had the OWA. It quickly became one of my favorite pours. RIP, big fella. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kane Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 4R 2017. Second time having this. Same place, and they still charge $8.5 for 2oz. I guess they think it's the small batch. I don't know why they still have it. Anyways, it's good. I passed this many times, because I don't particularly likr 4R, and it's making me have second thoughts. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlutz Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 OBSV. 120.6 pf, 9 yrs 10 mos. Second taste of this one and I’m getting nice vanilla along with the oak and rye spice. A little bit of water is doing nice things. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can be unbelievably tasty...mine was...and then I went and bought a non store pick BT and pretty much felt like you do now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
