lcpfratn Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 January 14 I found out that I'm going to be a first time father. Today I received a call from our realtor that our offer was accepted on a house that my wife and i immediately fell in love with the first time we saw it. I'm celebrating a memorable month with a fantastic pour from the bottle a great friend gave me on my wedding day last April. Congratulations!

Over the spring/early summer I recommend finding as much quiet time as you can to enjoy your drams, eating out at you and the missus's favorite places, and sleeping a lot. All rare commodities after you start your prison term . . . errr the magical time known as fatherhood. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smokinjoe Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Starting the weekend with a gorgeous pour of Maker’s Cask Strength. Tastes, are tastes. We all are different. I get it. But, if you’ve not tried this whiskey because you don’t care for the standard Maker’s, I would say that you’re doing yourself a disservice. This is seriously good whiskey that is greater in total than just the proof bump over the standard. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Congrates on the saga of Papahood, to the Missus for Motherhood, to the Little One that will teach you more about love than you can possibly understand, yet, for the Cuban, for the beautiful steaks & the quartet of unicorns...

CUfan99 Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 I’m thoroughly enjoying Seelbach’s New Riff SiB pick. If I were given this blind I would swear it was a 4 Roses OBSQ or V pick. I would drink this over many higher priced and more mature popular expressions from major distilleries. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is January and I do not recognize this color. The only colors available this time of year are white, gray, and brown! Speaking of brown. Tonight's pours consisted of a Loch & K(e)y selection of Blanton's that may be, the best barrel of Blanton's I have ever tasted. Followed by some ECBP A118. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeepCover Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 Last Friday we nearly lost our 6 year old English cocker (Wembley) to IMHA (her body is attacking its red blood cells). One night she was wagging her tail in our kitchen and the next night I was rushing her nearly-lifeless body to the vet. A blood transfusion, a cocktail of various meds, a weekend in emergency care and a sizable invoice later, she returned home with a 50% chance of survival. For now, she’s acting like her normal self again. I’ll take what I can get. Tonight it’s a single pour of W12 as I reflect on the past week. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marekv8 Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 This is the 52/48 Corn to Rye mash bill— really an interesting pour. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Statesboro Blues Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 Thanks to all for the kind words and well wishes. My palate may have been off from the steak and the Cuban, but the CEHT won the night for me, followed by the old fitz, PVW23, and ETL. We also cracked an Old Ezra 7 and I must say, it surprised me. It was a great night. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
