apt43bear Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 It’s been a long work week so decided to finally crack open a bottle of Elmer T Lee to drink side by side with a bottle of Blantons. The wifey also made some freshly baked cinnamon rolls which paired nicely with the bourbons. Though I know bourbons meant to be drank (I do love drinking!), it’s always hard opening these bottles not knowing if I’ll be able to replace it in the future. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is halftime so I told my wife she could turn it to the Hallmark movie. No, I haven't surrendered my Man Card. After many years of marriage, I have learned that happiness is a balancing act. I will opt for another pour and surf the internet. She will enjoy a movie since she was bored by the game. Frankly, so was I since it is a preseason game. Sometimes the little wins can be big. I hear ya’ mbroo. By chance is the movie ”A Little Daytime Drama”? Biba! Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Oh, I guess I was supposed to be watching. Yes, Yes, it is! The plots are predictable but sometimes the scenery can be enjoyable.. If you know what I mean.

Rhettro Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 Had a nip of the new EW 1783 for an appéritif. An indulgent pour of Pikesville Rye now. And thinking I may have another dram of MM 101 later on if I want dessert. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0895 Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 After having to work this morning for a couple hours, I decided to just have a lazy Saturday. Of course I like sipping on something, and this 2016 store pick OWA is a fantastic choice. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kepler Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 I started off with a L'encantada armagnac and really enjoyed it. Switching to bourbon so have to go JM Cigar Blend, batch 9. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wedelstaedt Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 Had a sip of MM 2020 LE, wasn’t working. Switching to HMcK10. Will see how this one works. Cheers 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishnbowljoe Posted August 22, 2021 Author Share Posted August 22, 2021 Busy, busy day so far. I got a whole bunch of things taken care of around the house this morning/early afternoon. I ate a lite lunch and I’m having a small pour of BT on the back patio before heading back in to try and get a couple more things done. Biba!

Radioyada Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 Out for an early dinner for the wife’s birthday. Had a glass of the 2020 OF Birthday bourbon at a tavern bar, then walked down to the restaurant and decided to enjoy a pour of the 2020 Van Winkle Family Reserve Rye. It has been a great day. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPBourbon Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 Both of these delicious nectars tonight. This is an EXCELLENT store pick of barrel proof Old Forester. 1920 is my absolute jam and this pick blows it away. It’s like a pecan pie in a glass! 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G L Tirebiter Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 I like the 1920 OF too. Probably will never see the single barrel here in PA. Sipping a little regular label 4Roses. And, in the home office, listening to a little Brian Eno 'Another green World". Bass is kicking on the Vandersteen 2Cs (older model that I cannot sell (yet) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LCWoody Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 I picked this bottle up last year I think. It was always a little hot for the proof. I drink it over ice, but the flavor drops fast. I’m going to finish it off tonight. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dad-proof Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 I was feeling left out of all the Dickel love, so enjoying a pour from a bottle I picked up almost exactly 2 years ago the last time I visited Tullahoma. Really good. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
