Having some WFP. 1st impression is an amped Weller special reserve. Good stuff. I would love to see a Weller 12y Full Proof. I know it would be close to WLW, but would love to see it.

Football, wings, salad, football, now bourbon.  Next up, more football, more bourbon.

 

Four Roses Single Barrel on a cold night in Indiana.  Currently, 28 F in Indy.  Kickoff temperature in GB is forecast to be around 10 F.

New Hallmark movie? 😐 The one on tonight is a bit slow. 🥱

Was saving a bottle of EHT for the game tonight but started feeling like crap this afternoon, so now this:

So, no football or split screen?  My wife hit the other room to watch the movie.  She knows its playoff football which she likes but not as much as a new Hallmark movie.  I guess she figures she will catch the second half of the game.  

 

Daddy is sitting in front of the tv with both dogs watching football and drinking bourbon.  The grandpuppy who we have been watching this week is sleeping.  

 

Pics below.

 

I moved on to Burning Chair Store Select Barrel Strength.  I see one more pour in my future.  I will wait until halftime to decide.

Did a bit of work today & got home with about 6 minutes left in the 1st qtr of the Bengals game...

Started on the left.

The ET was rockin'

The 4R Sib was good but not worthy of another.

The McFalane is quite good if you are in the mood for a finished pour. Actually better than a 1910 imo...

It was a Christmas present as was the Bengals win... (belated)

Well, we did watch the earlier game. I was born and raised in Indy, and now reside in fairly close proximity to Chicago. So it’s the Colts and Bears for me. FWIW, my brother in law is from Wisconsin, and is a very rabid Packer fans. Know what I mean? Let’s just say that the Packers ain’t one of my favorite teams. 🤭

loved how rich and oaky the ’19 release was.  Probably one of the best years for ORVW.

I killed old granddad earlier today.  The bottle not the man.

Tonight I warmed up with a pour of of good old plain Evan Williams black label.  Never underestimate this pour.

 

Now I'm on to Barrell batch #25.

The Barrel batch 25 was good but not its stellar self as usual. 

So I changed it up with a pour of RR single barrel, the regular stock version not a PS.   It didn't taste right tonight and I know it's not the bottle because I've enjoyed this one several times. 

 

So it seems that I'm dealing with an off palate night.  My normal remedy for that is Dickel distillate.  So I poured a store pick Barrell bourbon that is TN/Dickel distillate.  It powers through my palate and deliver some really nice bourbon notes, with the vitamin mineral notes as a tag along.  I'm okay with that.

Had a little bit of WP 10yr earlier. Now onto the good stuff, RRSiB PS. An Oklahoma pick. Just right for this Okie Country Boy. 

 

Cheers

Went to dinner last night with some friends and they had the Benchmark Single Barrel.  Gave it a try.  Enjoyed it so much I'm looking for a bottle of it now.

I probably drink more EW black label than any other bourbon. It’s cheap. It’s available. It’s consistent. And most importantly - it’s good.

Going through some open bottles, to make some room 😉  Mrs. Skinsfan wanted an Old fashioned. Who am I to deny her?

Thanks.

She likes hers on the sweet side, with 1/2 oz of simple syrup and a lot of cherry juice.  Mine is bar spoon of syrup and cherry juice.

Guess which on is hers😉
