It provides me an opportunity to experiment whereas I'm usually just lazy and pull from the bourbon cabinet. A Merry Christmas to you as well! We doing brandy cocktails tonight to go with the leftover beef & prunes (a Scandinavian dish of note or so I am told) instead of bourbon r rye. We did rye Manhattans last night. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mbroo5880i Posted December 27, 2021 Share Posted December 27, 2021 A few months back, I purchased a bottle of Woodinville Bourbon. I enjoyed it so much I purchased another bottle. It is a very good bourbon. I have wanted to branch out and try some of Woodinville's other offerings. Tonight, I purchased a bottle of the Port Finished Bourbon. I opened it when I got home. It is very good. Is it better than the standard offering. Maybe, maybe not. It depends on your mood. This bourbon is slightly drier but sweeter. I really like it. I can see each having a place on your bar. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our son, dil and grandkids came over at noon yesterday for our Xmas get together. Food, presents, games and a pour or three. The day started with a pre lunch pour of a bourbon wood aged red wine my dil brought. I did a quasi BIB ladder over the course of the rest of the day and evening. As I did a few days ago, I enjoyed FRSB, MM 101, and Old Fitz BIB. Got some cool presents too. I’ve received numerous items related to the Despicable Me/Minions movies, and the movie A Christmas Story as past Xmas presents. It’s become something of a tradition over the last 8 or 10 years. Most of y’all have seen my posts with pics that sometimes show some of the items I’ve received. Well, the tradition continued yesterday. I opened my main gift and was almost speechless. My crazy, over the top gift is in the pic below. In the other pic is my seasons greetings to all my bourbon brothers and sisters here on SB. Cheers! Biba! Joe Joe, My SIL gave me the same. My Brother had "A Christmas Story" on the TV. She even had placed the Red Ryder, in a corner, behind the It was perfect. I have already been in the yard, trying it out. Happy New Years 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a cask strength barrel pick, and get a strong cherry cola flavor, in a very good way. It's a really slick etched bottle too. I'm going to use it as a decanter, or dump my solara bottle in it when it's gone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I brought a bottle to our family Christmas gathering and it was a hit. It lacks the "grain forward" taste that seems to be the polite descriptor for many craft bourbons and instead tastes like, well, classic Kentucky a la, say, Old Forester. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
