Tamed the heat of the BP without watering it down. Tried another pour at 50/50 and liked it even better. Diluting whiskey with whiskey is always a win. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FasterHorses Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 Cousin offered me a pour of regular JD… i was not excited but had a small pour anyway. He is not into bourbon at all, just keeps it for when he gets sick. Anyway, incidentally he keeps his in the fridge.. it was a surprisingly nice pour when cold. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anwalt Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 Learned to take the wee bottles when I travel. I've been in Knoxville and Charlotte visiting the kids, headed to Jacksonville for an event. Shared the following with The Boy: 1) SFTB 120.2 (we both preferred this one blind over #2) 2) SFTB 130.6 3) Michters BS Rye (one of my favorite ryes, Obree really hooked me up here) 4) ECBP C923 (Loving it more & more, for all that the ECBP's are consistently good, this one really does stand apart) 5) Larcency C922 (Very good, I think the B523 might be a touch better) 6) JD SBBP Rye - picked up two more in Charlotte, just crazy bang for the buck. I gave one to the guy who gets me a lot of W12/SFTB/Gold in France, he & his crew went nuts over it. 7) 4R SBLE22, The Boy liked this one a lot 8. RB 12y CS Irish 9) BS 7y Irish (edged out the RB blind by a teeny margin) I bought a Garrison Brothers Cowboy bourbon back in late 2021 when I was just starting out. Bought it in PA at an evidently good price. It lives with my daughter. Man, it is good. I do not normally care for Garrison Brothers - but the Cowboy bourbon is for real. Sooo viscous, dark, still sorting out the deep flavors. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was surprised at just how good that one is. I like their BP offerings way better than the normal/DO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, Secondary is up to $150 in most places. Selling two on Unicorn, they've been going for $200 there. Already got 2 replacements for $130, looking for the third. Then I'll tell people I left two alone in the dark and that they really, really liked one another... Has anyone tried the A124? Sometimes the critics are right and sometimes not. Granted, compared to C923, it'll all be downhill. Still, the mania for ones like the C923 leaves some perfectly good stuff for others. Is anyone else here an A122 fan? Because of the "low" proof/critics it's not hard to get at $60 - $70. I really like that one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blended with the 92 proof regular it comes in at a nice 108.2.. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anwalt Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 Huh. Took a closer look at the Garrison Bros Cowboy Bourbon. It was a 2017 purchased in 2021. Looks like the PA Liquor People misplaced it then mispriced it, as I paid $60. MSRP was $130 back in 2017. The present secondary is $400. And only the State got $crewed, happy ending. I don't think it's a $400 bourbon. But $60? Yup! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishnbowljoe Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 Last night, it was pours of my HH BIB blend and EH Taylor SmB. Happy BIB Day! Probably only a small pour of my HH blend tonight.

mbroo5880i Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 Enjoying a pour of HMcK10 Single Barrel BIB on BIB Day! while watching the first Harry Potter movie. I believe I will stick with Heaven Hill and opt for a pour of ECBP B523 to wrap up an all too short weekend. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomm Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 I have it on good authority that this is a good blend. Regular Larceny with a B522 at 50/50. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kepler Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 (edited) I am digging everyone's take on the home blend Larceny. FWIW, my personal favorite Larceny home blend is any Larceny Barrel Proof mixed with a Larceny 92 proof private barrel store pick at 50:50. The 92 proof store picks are noticeably better than the standard Larceny shelfie. Unfortunately I haven't see a new Larceny store pick in my neck of the woods in at least a year. Hopefully they will return to shelves soon. Edited March 4 by Kepler 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LCWoody Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 Sometimes I go months with out sipping on MM 101 and I’m always so impressed with it. I Need to sip it more. Such a good inexpensive poor. Although very different profiles, I will put it on the same parallel with WT 101. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
