Another great one gone, from the 2nd barrel of StraightBourbon HH Select Stock

When I saw your empty, it made me want a sip. I still have a decent amount left. I usually pull this one out when I want someone to taste an excellent bourbon. I'm glad I was able to get a bottle. Ill have a sip tonight in honor of your deceased bottle. :)

Jack with honey but all is not lost since I bought a replacement yesterday. Summer's coming and my iced tea needs a garnish. :)

These two extinct expressions made room for a Stagg Jr. batch 9 and a ECBP C-917.   My first and only bottle of 8 yr. AS Beam Black (a gift from my brother in law) and sooo much better than Beam white.  Decent flavor for 86 proof.  The OE 7 was an odd one.  Some nights it was deep, complex and delicious.  Other nights, hot and disjointed.  Probably just me but I never got that as much with other bottles.

Oops didn’t notice there was that much left. OWA has to be one of my favs and at a great proof. Cheers!

Getting to the end of some of these EC bottles. Finished one yesterday and poured a sample of the second for a friend today.

Solid pour for the price. Local store near me still has a couple on the shelf. Might go grab them.

Finished off a bottle of BT Single Barrel yesterday. It was good and glad I have one more in the bunker.

This was good.  Dill and mint on the nose but balanced by some nice caramel, buttered popcorn and oak.  Nice pop of flavor on the palate. Sweet cinnamon spice with a medium/long finish.  Pretty nice three year old Oregon craft whiskey for $30.  Held its own in a sbs with Willet 3yr. rye.

Wasn’t much left. I have a few more bunkered but have a lot of high proof open already. So sipping away while I contemplate what to open to replace its spot on the bar and flip between tourney games. Good thing the wife and child are out because I’d be driving them insane.

Pardon the crappy cellphone pic.  finished off a couple of 1792 varieties tonight - the BIB and SW.  Really enjoyed both - BIB is the best 1792 IMHO - and have a few more bunkered.  The SIB was KO'd several days ago - just haven't been impressed much by it, maybe bad luck with a few less-than-stellar barrels.

 

Gotta finish off more open bottles - need to make room for new disciples returning from the upcoming Pilgrimage to the Holy Lands...

An OS 9y went down by the fire tonight. F742549A-2520-4368-9DBE-819ECE5BE2B3.thumb.jpeg.a453346aba705a48884536af2d19c46f.jpeg

Despite the fire, that looks like a slice of heaven to me...

Pretty sad to see this go. I don’t think I’ll ever get my hands on one of these again.

It was significantly better then I anticipated and well worth the price.

Another good bottle down. I have yet to have anything other than at least a good bottle of the single barrel, and a few really, really good ones.

Said goodbye to the Colonel tonight as well, albeit a Small Batch instead of Single Barrel.

I finished off a BT after work today. I’m sure glad I have a few more in the bunker. ^_^

ECBP batch 12, C-916, 136 proof.  It was great but I followed it up with a pour of C-917 which I thought was actually better.

Put an EHT SB down last night. It was ok, I’ve had better EHTSB before.
