IamMatt Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 My Advent calendar sample was Barrel Dovetail, first pour of the night. I wanted to continue with something less of a flavor bomb and less proofy so I poured a glass of EW 1783. Took a sip and it was a little too tame, so I tossed a half-ounce or so of the Dovetail in the glass. Very nice! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely not a bourbon, but veeeeeeery flavorful. He done good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulO Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 Thursday evening, when the temperature dropped and the snow started, I wanted something out of the ordinary. I decided to open a KCSB selected by Kroger Headquarters. It turns out to be a great pick. On the other hand, I tend to like any KCSB pick. They're all good. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been nursing this bottle for a while. It's a really good example of some quality MGP juice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mal00768 Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 I over did it a bit last night with pours from WTMK 17 year, Talisker 11 yr 2022 special release, and Glendronach Port Wood. The wife has been grumpy with me all morning regarding my snoring. she said I have to find a new place to sleep now. How do you old and experienced married guys handle this? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jvd99 Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 Last night, after almost 4 weeks of no drinking due to recovering from foot surgery, I had a pour of FR Small Batch Select. My taste buds said 'thank you' and my liver said 'here we go again!' 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have an extra room or 2 over at our house. @Clueby and Mrs Clueby can atest to the comfort of the bed. Have some bourbon in the bunker, too. And my wife is used to me snoring after a few drams of heaven. Just going to cost you a bottle of BTAC for the night of peaceful slumber . . . . 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Day drink…nap…go to bed at night sober = no snoring while the Mrs. is trying to sleep. For obvious reasons this is best tried on the weekends. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anwalt Posted December 25, 2022 Share Posted December 25, 2022 Merry Christmas to You People. Enjoying some day drinking, WTRB. Dad's telling stories about his two aunts. One was a WT girl, the other 4R. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jazz June Posted December 25, 2022 Share Posted December 25, 2022 Old Fitzgerald BiB 15 year and George T. Stagg 2019, both excellent small pours. Still put some relatives out for the nap though.

CaptTim Posted December 25, 2022 Share Posted December 25, 2022 KC 12 for me this evening. Don't really need a special day for this. I could pour this every night. It's just that good to me. Merry Christmas to all.... 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was lucky enough to have a mate of mine bring me a bottle of KC12 over to Europe when he came back from the Chicago marathon, so I have one that I very occasionally drink from. We can get the KC9 over here, and the Rye, but the KC12 is extremely hard to find it seems! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where in the NL are you? I've been there twice and traveled around quite a bit. Lovely place. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
