kcgumbohead Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 Last night was the rare (for me) BT night. I have a STJ and a BT with VERY similar profiles, the BT could pass for a diluted version of the STJ, they are that close. Several months ago I set aside a 50:50 as the STJ needed some taming. The resulting blend has a delightful cherry note that fit the bill perfectly last night. The proof down from the BT addition hits a sweet spot that makes this blend better than either component solo (they showed potential but the BT needed a bit of horsepower and the STJ had too much) so the remainder of both bottles has been committed to this blend. I think Steve may have been the one to suggest this combo so, thank you sir, well done!! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kane Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 No thanks to my lacking water pouring skills I've just diluted my ECBP 139.9 proof almost 1:1. It came out surprisingly flavorful. I need to experiment more with low proof tasting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokinjoe Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 Not too bad a week. Settling into the garage tonight as we’re expecting more rain, and it’s a “never disappoints” Beam Bonded while waiting for some World Series action to get going on the radio in a few hours.

HoustonNit Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 Just finished mine. Let's go Nats!!! Go Stros, get the win. I’ve heard Nats are now the Cinderella team and Astros are the like the early 2000s evil empire darkside Yankees. Well maybe not after going 0-2, either way this seems fitting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah....no one around here will ever compare the Astros to those evil Yankees. Before the Series, no one gave our Nats a chance. The announcers were all over Houston's sacks when the Series started. Hell, if we played , "take a shot every time they said, Cole", we would've been passed out before the top of the 2nd. It's looking a little dire right now though. Might have to take another drink!

[emoji16] It's looking a little dire right now though. Might have to take another drink!Good to hear. I really like what the Nats have done after unloading Bryce. A team I could get behind. I think Vegas odds had Nats at over a 2-1 dogs. If I was in Vegas or had access would’ve put a lot on Nats. I’d put Stros at a ~54% chance at the start and obviously much less now. I think Stros are probably a better team but the Nats are hot and baseball is all about streaks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0895 Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 Switched over to some cherry cordial for the final pour of the night. This stuff never ceases to amaze me. Probably their best product currently. Please ignore the kitten butt. He insists on being involved in everything. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kepler Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 (edited) Have to celebrate any victory you can get against these Nationals, they've been tough. Pulling out the Victory Cigar Blend also as a retrospective celebration for my Astros winning the AL pennant, because when they closed out the Yankees last weekend I was attending a college football game that night. Hated to miss the Astros, but seeing a Penn State "white out" game in person checked off another bucket list item for me, so no regrets. Edited October 26, 2019 by Kepler typo, got excited after finally winning 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've met more than a few dudes in my life with more than their share of arm-hair; but, for shear (needs to be sheared?) hirsutism you have the prize, 0895!!!
