Bob_Loblaw Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 (edited) Had the choice of only one and opted for the new Weller over a Blanton’s Gold. Inner tater took over so I could complete the lineup. The ETL 100 was a total surprise. The 4R are a 10.3 yr OESK and a 9.3 yr OBSV. Those two will be cracked tonight for the start of a short three day vacation. Edited August 12, 2020 by Bob_Loblaw 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishnbowljoe Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 I had errands to run today. Yes I stopped, and yes I did. I can't help it. I haven't felt this enamored with one single bourbon in a long while. Biba! Joe PS If things go according to plan, I probably only have two or three more weeks of pt. Thank goodness. Going to this place is killing me. It's not because of the stretching, exercises and weight training. It's because no matter which way I choose to go, I drive near liquor stores that I normally wouldn't. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't seen the new program 100 proof and barrel strength in the wild yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course I’ve seen Signature/100/BIB, and had heard that private picks have been done of those in the past. This is the first OF Single Barrel that I’ve ever seen. It being a private pick made it all the more interesting. Win-Win. And yes, it’s 90 proof, although it drinks like the proof is higher. In a good way of course. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil T Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 The local Winn Dixie was out of family sized WT 101, so I bought the ginormous sized EWBIB. I guess I'll suffer through. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0895 Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 Picked up a replacement of my summertime favorite (4R) today. The 1792 SB was $35, so why not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Galvin0791 Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 Trip to Madison, WI today to drop off wedding rings for inspection/cleaning/plating. Total Wine across the street wanted me to bring these home. Lousy pic, decent whiskey. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
