WhiskeyBlender Posted December 25, 2019 Share Posted December 25, 2019 (edited) Not trying to be self-promoting with this post photo, just polishing off the end of my Magnus Cigar Blend Bourbon, batch #2. That particular batch is one of my personal favorites. Also included is a photo of a flight of 17, 18, 21, 25, and 30 year Jefferson's Reserve Bourbons, which I had the pleasure to enjoy while working in TX earlier this month. Of the two bottles from the Stitzel-Weller juice, the 17 year was exceptional. From the MGP juice, the 21 and 30 were the standouts. The 25 year was nice, but it didn't have the length and depth that I would expect on the palate. Cheers, and Happy Holidays all! Hope you all are drinking something special tonight.

This will come in handy while Santa’s in his workshop tonight. I just hope I can close the shop before the kids wake up tomorrow morning. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoustonNit Posted December 25, 2019 Share Posted December 25, 2019 Had some really nice rum while preparing the prime rib for dinner.Opened the Parker’s Curaçao barrel from last year with desert. I mean it’s not bad but way too much influence from the Curaçao barrels. It’ll take a while to consume. Had some of a new bottle of McKenna and maybe it’s a lucky barrel but I forgot how much I like this stuff. It’s really the right proof and age for HH. It’s got less oak and is more dry than EC. If you’re like me and you prefer Buffalo Trace over Eagle Rare you’ll prefer this. We gave Santa some cookies and the Texas classic. That fat bastard had a few three finger pours. Merry Xmas. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick_OKC Posted December 25, 2019 Share Posted December 25, 2019 Merry Christmas to all! Took the 6 year old grandson for a ride tonight to see Christmas lights, and fun was had by all. When home, opened an Old Scout Single Barrel, bottled in July 2016, by Sarah, of course. A blown cork ensued, but I have a bunch on hand to replace it.

marshall9779 Posted December 25, 2019 Share Posted December 25, 2019 Merry Christmas all. Last night while finishing up preparations.Now after a great Christmas morning and lunch. While the kids nap enjoying with some home made bourbon, chocolate chunk and pecan cookies the Mrs. stayed up late making for me. Told her to use the OE7. Phenomenal and these two are basically like biscuits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
