PowderKeg Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Cracked open a 1792 High Rye (found in AR of all places) and a 1792 225th Anniversary (scored on the Pilgrimage to Louisville last week). Really enjoying both - no wonder Barton is in the top 5 of my favorite distilleries... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverc Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 Banker's Club! 3 year, 80 proof! I used it for making some Bourbon Brown Sugar BBQ sauce. Worked great. It's actually not bad for the price drinking neat too, and honestly better than most craft garbage I've tried. Hard to beat $9 a liter, and no guilt using the good stuff for cooking.

Wedelstaedt Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 Eagle Rare 10, PS. This a new bottle to me. I have had several ER10 bottles, some good, some not. Great thing about Single Barrel, it is a surprise every time. Cheers 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bayouredd Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 Rough day, rough week, smooth pour; I let it sit for 20 minutes and the first sip reminded me why this is one of my favorites. I can tell a difference from my first bottle, however... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0895 Posted May 13, 2018 Author Share Posted May 13, 2018 Delivered one of these to a friend yesterday, and decided to open mine as well. One of the best bargains out there right now (imo). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TSNeat Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 My first bottle of this. Thought it was very good, albeit the heat from the higher proof was a bit of a shock to my mouth compared to what I’ve been drinking recently. Definitely goes on the buy-again list. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0895 Posted May 16, 2018 Author Share Posted May 16, 2018 (edited) Cleaning house today and while dusting bottles, I discovered I had room for one more on my "open" shelf. Yay!

mikeydk Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 It's been a long time, many years in fact, since I had a glass of Johnny Drum. Had this bottle for a few months, decided it was time to crack it open. 101 proof, charcoal filtered. I was reminded instantly why I didn't like it back in the day, it's different and outside my preferred flavor profile. I will have a glass each night this week to see if it grows on me. If not, another story about why trying things is important, because if I don't love it, it means more to share with visitors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevinbrink Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 Have had this one since before the holidays thanks to @beasled not sure what took me so long to open this since I'm an open everything kind of guy, but regardless glad to make my Wednesday night a bit more special. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galvin0791 Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 Stave and Barrel by Glenn's Creek. Opened this one up. Gonna have a couple more pours before I throw up my impressions, but initially... I'm digging it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wedelstaedt Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 I opened up this one recently. Somewhat bittersweet. The bourbon is amazing, but I won't get another bottle. It is so tasty, I will have to restrain myself, as to make it last awhile. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverc Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 (edited) Just cracked this 14 year KCSB store pick from The Party Source. I bought it last year when I was passing through. Edited May 18, 2018 by silverc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fosmith Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 Opened an ECSB NAS last night. Surprisingly good. Better than I remember 12 y.o. being. Wish I could do a SBS but the 12 y.o. is long gone.,.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishnbowljoe Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 I finished off a number of extremely low fill bottles Friday night. To fill the void on my "open" shelf I decided to grab a few private selections from my bunker. Biba! Joe 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
