Clueby Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 Just felt like a nice pour tonight although the Blues did win tonight. Haven't had any bourbon in several days. Should have eased into this one. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

afmadd Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 Bit of a different night - a lot of 1 oz. pours. Dickel Barrel Select, then Rebel Yell 10 Year, then Jack Daniels Barrel Proof, then David Nicholson 1843, and finally Bowman Brothers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She’s running a little hot for 102 proof but the flavor is there. When I mix OGD with WT I call it "Old Gobbler" 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warehouse: J, West door/side rick #12, 3 up from the floor (out of 6 high total) 11 barrels in from the aisle (K) (out of 23 I think total? It’s 20 something.... I cannot remember). So, sibling barrels are all the same info, except letter tells you placement left and right. Cousin barrels (my made up term) are same Rick, but different levels. Ricks often hold the same recipes of mash runs. Edited March 31, 2019 by 0895 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick #69 2 high 5 in (E) locations are based from the aisleways. 2 aisles per warehouse, running E-W or N-S. ricks on both sides , doors on each end.

Nice axe! Cheers, Nancy Thanks Nancy and Kane. "Candy" is the candy apple red Lester. I've got three over here with me right now (2 more in US storage). Candy gets hot rodded this fall.

Between that and JB Distiller's Cut, I could be quickly be a convert (and would have lost a lot of money betting against that!) I hate to admit this but the 12yr sig was the worst of the flight. I do love the 12yr signature, but mostly as a great blending component with anything that tastes syrupy, flat, underaged or over vanilla, since it confers spice and the cherry note. I do think that this will be very handy in the coming years when stuff is getting rushed out the door underaged and unbalanced Edited March 31, 2019 by The Black Tot 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we must put Hendrix a bit higher because SRV was a heavy student of Hendrix. You don't get SRV if Hendrix didn't exist. Edit: Hendrix would have LOVED SRV. I'm confident they would have collaborated. Edited March 31, 2019 by The Black Tot 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
