Cibsie Posted July 9, 2023 Share Posted July 9, 2023 The get togethers are too few and far between, but always worth it. It's just incredible to spend time with great people and great bourbon. We really need that 12 and SiB to complete the color wheel for next time though. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokinjoe Posted July 9, 2023 Share Posted July 9, 2023 I thought this Old Charter Old No. 8 might work well as my freezer bourbon, and I am not disappointed. Brings the corn sweetness forward, and makes it like some sort of bourbon freezer pop. Nice on a hot afternoon, here Down South. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kepler Posted July 9, 2023 Share Posted July 9, 2023 Still Austin Cask Strength on a big cube of clear ice. Big ice cubes are getting a workout in the Kepler household in this hot summer. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fosmith Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 Last night I had my second pour of George Remus 94 proof. I'm really impressed with this. Tons of caramel and brown sugar. It's not hot but it has enough flavor that you'd think it was 100 proof or more. I got this out of curiosity a few years ago and finally got around to opening it because I had low expectations. Of course, it's no longer available where I shop... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would love to hear what you think of the red corn BiB. I saw some of the mash from that whiskey and it looks very oily.

Grady330 Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 WT101. Seems a bit sweeter then normal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokinjoe Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 I keep hunting for a time when I can love on the Isaac Bowman Port Finished, but I can’t just find it. Generally, I enjoy finished bourbons as the finish can add a nice polish to the base whiskey, but the Bowman’s finish just “wet old wool blanket” dampens the bright bourbon that went into the mix. I’ll work through this bottle, but then I think I’ll be done with it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulO Posted July 11, 2023 Share Posted July 11, 2023 I finally got around to opening the EW 1783 "American Heros" batch. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bayouredd Posted July 11, 2023 Share Posted July 11, 2023 Started with what I thought was a 1915; but I think I missed the proportions & hit a 1913 or 12 since it seemed to be sweeter than I wanted. Finished it, but moved onto a OGD BiB which nailed the end of workday beautifully... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a bottle, or three, and will not be replacing any of them, except maybe the AE rye, (if I catch it on sale), because it's a very nice dessert pour.

fishnbowljoe Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 Back to the BOTM this evening. ER in the glass. Also pictured is the latest addition to my menagerie. Grogu. Vacation time in Florida/Disney World last week for my son and his family. They bought Grogu back as a gift for me. Goes great with my Mandalorian phone charging pad. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
