FacePlant Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 I been sipping some RR B 4th floor. Because I can be a greedy bastard from time to time I've got quite a few from this barrel stashed. Oh hell, if I had the whole barrel it still wouldn't be enough! Huge flavors but drinks like an 86. Incredible would be a gross understatement. My local LS informed me today that he received a call from a well know MD in Lawrenceburg. He was thanked for his patronage and asked to set a date for a barrel pick (or two). After pleasantries were exchanged the gentleman asked if he could have the pleasure of picking? Of course the LS said please and was informed the pick was made that very afternoon, apparently a "real honey" from B floor 4. Who would have guessed? I'm sure this story only amuses me but I've got to admit I'm all a twitter. Now I return to Carol King singing about ketchup. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fosmith Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 Elijah Craig SmB K&L store pick while grilling some burgers and veggies on a warm, muggy evening here in the Bay Area. As Larry David would say, pretty, pretty, pretty good. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you find an exceptional RR barrel it only behooves you to stock up to the hilt so well done. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LCWoody Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 Having a really good pour of the batch 24 Barrell Bourbon. This is the most KY tasting batch in a while. Good stuff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Three samples, but it was a one sip tasting. The other two were still delish, the B was just clearly superior. By a lot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgtspitter101 Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 I revisited my bottle of stagg jr. Batch 14 since it has been opened for a couple weeks and ended up loving it. I was dissapointed at first but this really opened up well and a portion of the heat is not there anymore to the point it is a lot more enjoyable. I would not mind to have 1 or 2 more for the stash. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's how I felt about batch 13, especially after batch 12. But after a few weeks it really started to sing and I'm glad I bought more than one. Batch 14 hasn't showed up yet here in NoCal.

BlueMonk Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 Having my first taste of Monkey Shoulder that a neighbor gifted me for helping on a project.
