fosmith Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 At $70, a little pricey for a youngish whiskey but it certainly was tasty. Buttered popcorn on the nose with some red fruits underneath. Delicious spice and candy on the palate. Long finish. If they weren't sold out, I'd probably get another one, tho... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob_Loblaw Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 Continuing to clear our space and kill bottles. Both Of these were great. EHSiB continues to impress. I’ve not had a bad or even mediocre bottle. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've just never had one that was THAT much better than the Small Batch to warrant the (around here) significant jump in price. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Buttered popcorn" usually means there was a lot of diacetyl in the ferment. Does it also taste like butterscotch and generally "buttery"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did the first ever barrel pick from this distillery with my local two years ago. Fantastic bourbon. It was fortunately less expensive then.

mbroo5880i Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 I emptied a bottle of CEHT BP tonight. I was so upset I broke the bottle instead of taking a picture. This bottle emptied itself quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radioyada Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 Started to pour half of what was left in the bottle, then said to hell with it. Now to figure out a way to put another bottle into the budget. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've just never had one that was THAT much better than the Small Batch to warrant the (around here) significant jump in price. True, but at the same time I’ve never had a single barrel that wasn’t better then the small batch. The price disparity is a bit larger than I would like and for that reason I don’t splurge on the SiB often, but every time I do it’s a fantastic experience.

Postal Grunt Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 One of these days, Mrs PG is going to ask just what I mean when I talk about oxidation of the contents in a bottle. I saved an open bottle of OG114 by finishing it off. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need to try one of these awesome barrels. Apparently Saint Louis gets all the crap single barrels/bottles. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
