straightwhiskeyruffneck Posted December 31, 2024 Share Posted December 31, 2024 Backwards distilling bourbon. Store pick (liquor shed) 9 year, 120 proof. This distillery is local but I never liked any of their whiskeys. This stuff, on the other hand is phenomenal!!! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LCWoody Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Every New Year’s Eve since 2015 I would have a drink of the 1998 Russell reserve. I finished that bottle last year. So I opened a new bottle tonight that I will only drink on New Year’s Eve. An oval 12 year Elijah Craig. This is the last bottle I have of this. It is so delicious. I’m so glad I opened it and enjoying it on our New Year’s eve. Hope everyone has a great new year. The best thing is the cork did not break!! 19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markandrex Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 At a neighbor”s place last night. About 50 people in one of the nicest stables I’ve ever been in. A really nice catered evening with top a flight bar (worked through a PVW vertical with some BTAC near midnight). We brought in 2025 at a bonfire in the field. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazzhead Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 (edited) Enjoying a New Year's sip of Calumet Farm 8 year small batch, a bottle my son gave me for Christmas. Absolutely delicious; this is Barton's superb juice at 8 years of age and the perfect proof to go with this chicken pot pie. I Its a new year, life is good.

Richnimrod Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 Yesterday, I hauled down the 4-R 130th Anniversary SmBLE from back in the day. I'd rarely hit this one over the years, saving it for "special occasions" dontcha know? My SiL and I put a dent in the last half of it in honor of New Year's Eve. I'd always told myself that the 125th was a teensy bit closer to perfection; but, that's looooong gone, and this one ain't. This is such a complex-yet-refined pour. WOW! Happy New Year to . . . ME! ...And, my SiL. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anwalt Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 On 12/23/2024 at 4:22 PM, Obree said: Had the incredible pleasure of spending time over at Anwalt for several days this December month, in Puerto Rico. Of course, one condition was, more or less forced upon us by Mrs. Anwalt, to reduce his whiskey stash, by drinking it. Now, since he has a collection that encompasses many bottles that I would not even dream about having (Europe is so limited in the offering for American whiskey) we got to try some amazing stuff together. Old Fitz BiB, Lux Row Double Barrel 12 year old, Lucky 7 the Proprietor, Little Book the Infinite, and yes, even GTS, and that was just one evening! All very good, some great. The phenomenal GTS would return in another line up, in Anwalt's absence, together with a good friend and drinking buddy he has that lives close by. In that one, we had several very good ones, but early on, in that line up, we blinded WLW and GTS. Both amazing, but that night, the GTS won for me albeit by a hair's breadth. Incredible to have had the opportunity to visit, and to get that kind of access to his collection. Thanks, Anwalt! Will return at some point! Obree, it was a pleasure having you. You and Mrs Obree were an absolute pleasure to host. I appreciated both your muling and your great nose. And just plain fun to hang with. And the stroopwaffles! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This means you need another pour from the decanter to make the bourbon universe right. Might as well empty the decanter to complete your mission. Otherwise, the earth might be destroyed by a Supernova. Mankind's existence depends on you. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
