Wedelstaedt Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 Enjoying a gifted sample of JB Distiller's Cut. Even though, I have heard this bottle punches above it's weight, it caught me off guard. It really is good. I will pick up a bottle when I can.

Bourserker Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 It was actually last night at a restaurant where I tried some Angel's Envy port finish. This was actually my first time buying a pour of whiskey at a restaurant...I don't know what took me so long as that's a cheaper way to try stuff compared to buying a whole bottle. Anyway, I thought it was good, but not gonna rush out to buy a bottle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, I thought it was good, but not gonna rush out to buy a bottle. Bars are the way to go. Night before last, I had a glass of Blanton's at a bar because I've been wanting to try it again (only had it once several years ago when I was new to bourbon). And, I almost bought a bottle the other day for $55 at my local Safeway supermarket. Glad I didn't buy the bottle because, to me, Blanton's is good but not $55 good. I would rather have CEHT SB for $40 any day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve always enjoyed Blanton’s, but this recent purchase is spectacular. I don’t recall a more viscous Blanton’s, as this one. Still very controlled and elegant, but with more mouthfeel and just enough more oomph in all areas. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JvW Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 On 8/25/2018 at 8:30 AM, DCFan said: The wife and I ate at a seafood joint in DC on the Anacostia River across the street from the 1st base entrance to Nats Park called The Salt Line Restaurant. https://www.thesaltline.com/ They had quite the selection of bourbons including the full array of PVW - 10, 12, 15, 20, 23 yo. Prices for a pour of Pappy ranged from $20 to $130. I had the 15yo for $50. It was my first Pappy and I've been wanting to scratch that itch for the longest time. It was very good but I'm not certain it was worth $50. We went to a Bar in DC last weekend and the 23yr Pappy was $500; just shook my head...got an Elmer T Lee instead for $18.

PhantomLamb Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 Had a sip of Old Bardstown Estate Bottled last night. It was amazing, so sweet and mellow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flyfish Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 Finished the bottle of Basil Hayden 2 X 2 Rye and followed up with a generous pour of HH 6YO BIB--which was way, way better. I hope you newbies are taking note that price is not necessarily an indicator of quality. The HH, at 1/3 the price, was still preferable--to me at least--to the BH. Some of you, I know, are inclined to say "I poured it down the drain!" but cheap old geezers don't be pourin' nothin' down the drain. So, alright, I drank it. I ain't proud of it, but I drank it. The HH, on the other hand, I have no regrets about. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcbt Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 We welcomed baby girl #2 into the world on Monday, but she had to spend several days in the NICU. All is well now, though, and she and mama come home today. I came home last night to get a little sleep but first enjoyed some small LE pours to celebrate: PVW20, Barterhouse, Lot B, and W12. 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoustonNit Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 Thanks to a very generous SBer I was able to experience this.Parker’s 10th a BIB at 24yrs. A very interesting pour that I’m glad to have tried. The nose is extremely unique, it’s almost has a sulfur smell along with vanilla, caramel, wood and leather, never smelled a bourbon quite like this, also never had one so old. Very cool to try. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richnimrod Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 CONGRATS, dcbt! ...To you; and mainly to your wifey who did damned near all the work, I'm told. Heee-He!
