mbroo5880i Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 Enjoyed a small pour of New Riff SiB to finish of the bottle, followed by a few small pours of Woodinville Port, followed by a few small pours of Burning Chair. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JakeySnakes Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 Some KC9 out of a newly purchased bottle. This is my first experience with the new "ripply" bottle. The bourbon is hitting the spot, but not sure I like the feel of the new bottle. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had to do a side by side with Wild Turkey Rare Breed to compare. To me, they both hit the palette with similar flavors initially but the Saffell seemed to have a longer finish that coated the mouth. My wife doesn’t drink and nosed both of them without knowing what she was smelling and was pretty impressed with the Saffell nose. Glad I got a backup bottle of the Saffell but damn that Rare Breed does always hit the spot regardless. looking forward to your post in the "show us your stash" thread... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smokinjoe Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 An after work pour of Old Tub. My first bottle was so meh for me, but I’m 2 in after that one, and enjoying very much. It’s really hard to beat the price, as well. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only place I’ve seen Old Tub here had it on a shelf behind the checkout counter. Not a tater price, but it was a limit of one. Biba!

mal00768 Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 Last night I attended a tasting with Jim Rutledge. The lineup included: High Plains Rye Cream of Kentucky 6yr BIB Rye Cream of Kentucky 11.5yr Loch&Key barrel select "Extra Cream" Cream of Kentucky 11.5yr Cream of Kentucky 12.3yr Cream of Kentucky 13yr If you didn't already know, the bourbon is all from Barton. It was interesting hearing him talk and answering questions from the audience. I won't comment on the booze. I was having a really bad palate night, everything tasted chalky. It was probably the pb&j sandwich I had before I went. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A true classic. @smokinjoeIt appears we’re in the same industry. The way you phrased your message, I thought perhaps you were at an industry event / conference. I’m not aware of any going on this week, but I don’t have my finger on the pulse of all the regional/niche shows. At any rate, it’s always good to meet other people in the industry that also share this hobby, even if it isn’t in person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well if you’re in the plastics business, you know what a crazed last year, or so, it has been.

fishnbowljoe Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 WARNING:THREAD DRIFT! Mainly for @DeepCover & @smokinjoe, but also for everyone. Regarding the movie “The Graduate”. I was 11 years old when it premiered in 1967. My sister was 17. Going to the movies back then was a special treat. We planned on going to a movie one Saturday. My sister really wanted to see The Graduate. I would rather have seen a western or war movie. My sister won out. So off to The Arlington Theatre in Indianapolis we went. I wasn’t interested much in seeing The Graduate, but I will admit than it did make me a Dustin Hoffman fan, and the music by Simon and Garfunkel and Dave Grusin was great. I’ve always remembered two classic scenes from that move. The plastics scene and the seduction scene. “Mrs. Robinson, you’re trying to seduce me.” FWIW, I got payback on my sister 3 years later. She was in college then, and came home one weekend. This time we went to see “Patton”. 🪖 Biba! Joe 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
