Rare Breed here, right with you. Cheers to Thanksgiving Week! I'm not sure if I ever need an excuse to drink WT but I've been sick for the last bunch of days and haven't had a pour since Tuesday. Decided this was a good way to get back into the swing of things while honoring the occasion like you fine gentlemen. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lcpfratn Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Having a small pour of Blue Note PS SB cask strength. It’s Dickel sourced and almost 14 years old. It’s definitely got some oak, as you would expect, and it’s also got some cinnamon, dark fruit and burnt caramel notes...and the faintest hint of that Dickel Flintstone vitamin note on the finish. A very dark and interesting “Straight Bourbon.” 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This will come as no surprise since we are brothers, but Rare Breed is my absolute GOTO during Thanksgiving week. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcbt Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Tried OF1910 this weekend. Last night I REALLY got some nice smoke out of it. Very unique. I actually tried cold smoking bourbon a week or two ago with disastrous results. But this, this 1910, is what I was shooting for with that experiment. Gonna need to get a few more bottles of this. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can only speak for NJ, but Dant BIB is sold in limited distribution in NJ. I have not come across J.T.S. Brown in NJ. NJ also used to have the HH Gold label BIB, which I still have some handles, but is discontinued. YMMV depending on the state. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obeezy1Kaneezy Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Thanks for the replies guys. I’m in a controlled state, so everything is limited here lol. I bootleg most of my stuff across state lines. I’ll try & pick these up sometime. I like to live around that BIB proof, & for such little money there’s no big loss if I have to donate these to some friends with less discernible preferences.

CardsandBourbon Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 At lunch yesterday I had a pour of Baker's. One of the most under appreciated bourbons in my opinion. My bottle is almost empty. I better pick up another. Once I was home last night I had a nice healthy pour of Early Times BIB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishnbowljoe Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 I actually had a pretty decent day at work today, especially for a Monday. So, I’m having a couple of nice, healthy pours of Weller SR while relaxing at home. It’s tasting especially good this evening. Partly because of the decent day I had, partly because the recent bottlings of Weller SR that I’ve purchased have been pretty darned good, and finally because I only paid $25.99 for this bottle. For further reference, see my post in the “What Bourbon Did You Pass Up Today?” thread. ‘Nuff Ced. Biba! Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoustonNit Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 None for me this weekend since I've had a nasty cold. Started in my sinuses and now deep in my chest. Uggh. Anyone have a good hot toddy or other cold remedy recipe?I’ve heard just hot tea, a little lemon and if you can local honey or just any honey, also some whiskey neat on the side to go with it. The tea is supposed to help soothe your throat, lemon for vitamin C, local honey is supposed to help with local areas infections and is also a good cough suppressant, whiskey will open your pours and help you sleep.

The 116.8 Rare Breed has this odd way of evaporating in my cabinet. I open one up and a few weeks later is it is empty as all get out.

HoustonNit Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 I bought third bottle last Thanksgiving in Western NY when visiting, I’m thinking this is two year old RRSB store pick. Maybe a bit off profile but taste like it was a barrel that aged gracefully into the 10+ year range with a bunch of caramel sweetness. Really liked it and was shocked to see the last few bottles still available on closeout, this year. Picked up two more and enjoying the last third of a bottle I opened last year. Sitting outside on some folding chairs in the garage on a crisp November night by Lake Ontario with some bargain sticks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevinbrink Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 Well Turkey day week continues for me and shockingly I did not have an open 101, interestingly in opening the circa 2000 family size bottle I discovered that the screw top spent too much time sitting next to all those faulty corks and felt the need to try and fit in.

Pretty limited distro AFAIK and going by the other replies - either I haven't been to or looked in the other states mentioned, only KY. The non-bib 80 proof varieties have a wider distro - seen 'em here in AR on occasion - and the labels are very similar, so don't get fooled.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
