Richnimrod Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 Several pours, finishing off a low-fill private pick of OWA 107. Some very nice pours from this one; but down to about one strong one left. Probably had enough for this evening; but, it'll give up the ghost soon.

fishnbowljoe Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 I’m having a couple of pours of BT this evening. For Vosgar, “Same as it ever was.” Biba! Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bayouredd Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 When the day is done & your thinker is thunk out, it's nice to read a post that directs you to a pour... Batch 41 is alive and well!!! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Red, I appreciate your concern. Not to worry though. In the same vein as being a Weller whore, I could be considered a BT bastard too. I can live with that. Biba! Joe PS. Someone here (Chuck?) once posted, “If you aren’t having fun, you ain’t doing it right.” This is fun, and Is part of what sets SB apart from other bourbon websites. Ya’ gotta love it. I do. Thanks Red. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dad-proof Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 I'm down to the last few ounces of an ECBP B517. Don't want the last pour going flat on me, so for quality control purposes I suppose I'll be enjoying a couple of pours tonight. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha, I like when a bottle is getting low but has more than a normal pour yet you still feel the need to finish it off to clear shelf space. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokinjoe Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 Oh my. This 1792 High Rye that I’m sipping on right now is about as close to the thick butterscotch, heavy mouthfeel, ND Old Taylor that you can find in a bourbon made today. Please Barton, remember what you did here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NDN98 Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 Didn’t love this one when I first opened it, but it is growing on me. I would say it is a good value for sure. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JTaylor Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 Holiday spirit must have gotten hold of me yesterday, I picked up a half-gallon of egg nog on the way home from work. Later, as I stood in front of the bourbon shelf trying to find something to pour into my glass of nog I realized I'm kind of short on mid-shelf pours. I didn't really want to waste a good sipper in a glass of egg nog... I thought briefly about the JBWL there in the back, but then spied the EWWL right in front of it... Ding, ding, ding... we have a winner! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kcgumbohead Posted December 12, 2018 Author Share Posted December 12, 2018 Standard 1792 and VOB bib mingle, just a fine very low cost and fun combo. A perfect mid week casual pour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On Saturday we went to Doc Crow's in Louisville for my wife's work Christmas party and had a healthy pour of ER. After that we toured the new Old Forester distillery on Whiskey Row. Our tasting consisted of OF Statesman, OF 100 proof and OF 1920. After that we headed to a friends house for her annual Christmas party and enjoyed some Larceny, 4R SmB and EC. Needless to say I took Sunday off. I love Doc Crow's. Troll Pub is my other favorite haunt when I come through town. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokinjoe Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 520 miles in the car today, with s couple of client appointments mixed in. Just rolled in back home, and butt hurts. Shoulders hurt. Eyes hurt. Hands hurt. Knees hurt. Medicating before beddy-bye with a Baker’s. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elmossle Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 I've had a lingering sore throat for a day or two now and decided some higher proof was need medicine tonight. So I went to the bunker and grabbed a bottle of Stagg Jr. Batch 7 for the assignment. It was a mighty fine pour, and the throat is feeling better! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishnbowljoe Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 Blanton’s for last call last night. Tonight it’s BT followed by ETL. I’m really gonna try and savor my pours tonight. My annual physical is next Friday. I have to at least try and be a good boy so my blood work isn’t totally out of whack. Biba! Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kane Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 It's not you, it's me, but this is really not working out PHC Promise of hope. All bitter oak and saw dust, it's amazing how broken one's palate could be sometimes for no apparent reason... Pouring it back into a sample bottle, will make do with some Mellow Corn.

I’m so with you on this. We are such complex beings, with jillions of external and internal factors that can influence how we react to a taste on any given day.
