silverc Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Just cracked a New Riff BIB that I picked up in August while at the distillery. It's different and has a lot of peppery spice. I don't think it's amazing, but I will revisit it in the next few days to see if it opens up some more. I may consider getting a single barrel version of this if I see one. Anybody know if the single barrels are also BIB (100 pr) or if they are cask strength? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vosgar Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 Wow. I certainly didn't remember this SAOS 10yr bottled at 56.5% being so damn good. I think I'll have another pour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really liked both bottles that I have had a pour out of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jshleffar Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 Booker's for me. I've been trying to empty this bottle that I feel 'meh' about. Though this time tasted better than usual, watered a little less (swished an ice cube in it for 30 seconds or so) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CardsandBourbon Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 Last night was some RR 6 y.o. rye. The more I drink this the more I like it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flyfish Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 Went for dinner at Bill's house. He had Maker's, Bushmill, and something gin. So I poured myself a Maker's. Don't generally care for it but tonight it was quite pleasant. Good company makes everything better. Not sipping, tasting, and analyzing--just enjoying. Cheers! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevinbrink Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 Ran in to a store that had a bunch of a 2012 batch of Noah's Mill on the shelf for $45 and left it all behind since it had been a while since I had an older bottle open and the current foil top one I have is pretty much not good. Came home and decided to open an older one, this one is actually a 2013 batch and the difference is night and day, probably will grab a bottle of the batch I left behind at some point now.

elmossle Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 Started the evening with a pour of some of a EC store pick that happens to be 12yrs old. Very tasty! Then I moved on to a pour of Weller 107 NCF SB. A completely different profile from my first pour of the bottle over the weekend. Most certainly needing to do some more investigating with my taste buds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lcpfratn Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 With all the talk of W12 the past few days, I decided that W12 would be my first pour of the evening...might be my second too! It’s been awhile since I had a pour, and I’m really enjoying it this evening. It’s a shame that it’s so hard to find these days, but fortunately there are many alternatives (not necessarily wheaters) that are just as tasty, and more readily available, at similar retail pricing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smokinjoe Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 An end to a torturous work week is met with my local’s PS 1792 Single Barrel. Nicely done selection. Sweetish Nose, with a nice malted milk ball middle and buscuity on the finish. Cheers to our weekend y’all! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jazz June Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 Drinking David Nicholson 1843 tonight, after some Knob Creek SmB at an event (I never buy KC SmB, but I seem to drink quite a bit of it). The DN1843 does not taste like a wheater to me at all. Even higher proof wheaters have a sweetness in the finish that I just don't get at all in this bourbon. Not bad, but I would never guess what it was blind even with a great many guesses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlutz Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 It’s a BT kinda night. Started with W12. I haven’t had it in a while but I was reminded that to me it’s got one of the best noses in bourbon. Thoroughly enjoyable and a great start to the evening. Followed that with my favorite drink these days, a 3:1 ER10 and Stagg Jr. blend. Hitting the spot. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
