Wife is watching a Hallmark Christmas movie.  WTF.  That's ok. She isn't watching me.  Killing off a bottle of OGD 114.  😮😜

Sounds like you found Boebert’s Only Fans page to get you through Hallmark Christmas movie night!  😂

😀 Great take!  Unfortunately, all of the content on her Only Fans page is focused on BeetleJuice.  😜😀

HMcK10 tonight while watching...gulp, The Wall.  I love trivia shows like Jeopardy and The Wall where I can pretend to know the answers which I mumble out and regardless of whether I was correct, I can yell out "F...ing a right, I knew it!"

One of my all time favorite bottles.  It literally has no shortcomings.

RRSBSP,  I love this stuff!  Thankfully, I bunkered a lot before the change of mgt. at my LS.

 RRSBSP ... is that RR single barrel store pick I presume?  If so, I agree 110 percent!  👍

When you're having a good palate night, you bring out the better stuff (pro tip).

 

ECBP batch 12.  Followed by PHC 11th edition (11 yr single barrel). 

Now I've got Evan Williams 12 yr 101 in my glass.  Heaven Hill is really rocking my palate tonight.

Bourbon is so over rated when there are so many energy drinks.  😜

I finally decided to get one of those sphere ice ball molds.  I'm testing the results out with KCSB to start Spring Break.  So far, the ice isn't totally clear, but it is nice and round, the whiskey tastes really good.  🥃😉

Pic please @PaulO.  FWIW, one of my MM Ambassador Xmas presents years ago was their ice-ball mold. It is extremely rare when I have a pour in something other than a glencairn. Usually only when I have a pour at my American Legion post. I use the ice balls in my insulated travel mug with water. Cold for hours..… 😰

Ice Balls?  Just to clarify.  We are still talking about bourbon, right? 😜

Yes, although I did one time make an unsavory comment to someone as a joke. Use your imagination. 😬

As a serious geek, I am especially ashamed of the omission. Age & alcohol....

At least once per year, I go pick up an Evan Williams black.  And, I am always rewarded with an inexpensive but well done bourbon.  Today was that day, and the classic and well done bourbon notes that it provides (caramel, char/smoke, some sweetness, oak, nice mouthfeel), and the memories of my early bourbon days, again proves its quality.  When I see a picture of a bourbon barrel being dumped from any distillery, it makes my mouth water, and this whiskey is what I taste in my imagination.  It’s what I am tasting now. I often say that EW Black is the bar that is set for my evaluation of any craft effort.  Few of those have reached it, and as I sip it now, I wonder if I have set the bar too high.   I really need to have this around on a more regular basis.

I got it from Target.  The brand name is Houdini clear ice spheres tray.  It makes four spheres in a row.
