Booker's B96-C-15 for me now.  Call me biased, but I say all Booker's should be >8 years old.

I think getting the age up to 8yrs or 8yrs + would invigorate the brand. 
 

Cheers

Well, truth be told…..😏 The ORVW I had open and had a pour of was an older, age stated, paper labeled 10/107. I was gonna open and have a pour from a newer label/bottle Old Rip 10, but who am I to argue with y’all? 😜 A pour of 2021 WLW it is. Cheers y’all!

Nice!  You were going to throw us the curve ball, but went with the heater instead.  Great choice! 😉

Whether a curve or a knuckleball, I think your tastebuds are the winner here. No losers here, when we are talking squat bottle ORVW 10 or WLW.  👍. The great news, tomorrow you can have the ORVW!! 😉. Enjoy. 
 

Cheers

Sipping on WFE 11yr, a Christmas gift from Ms. Wedel.  Just elegant. 
 

Cheers

This is a really good barrel of Baker’s.  I think the package change from the previous has been a major step up to successfully indicate its premium contents.  The stopper is a damn piece of art.  From the raised wording on top to the clever barrel hoop look around the top circumference.  Well done.  While it’s always “about the whiskey inside”, well appointed dressing simply makes my drinking experience even more enjoyable.

We are sitting back and relaxing watching everything freeze. There is about a 1/4 inch of ice hanging in the trees  It is looking like it may hang in for a few days.  We are both retired and no place to go.  There is a herd of about 16 does grazing in my side yard and tapping out my bird feeders for seed.  The only reason I have to go out is I’m still watching two of the neighbor’s places and animals for a few days and to refill the bird feeders.    It will make for a beautiful walk through the neighborhood later.
I have a pour of MM-WFS in the glass   The fire is lit.  Life is good.  Stay warm and safe all.

Post-dinner pour of Calumet 16.  Heavy oak and cherry notes with a very nice “Kentucky hug” in the chest.  Just about perfect on a cold evening.  Cheers!

Based on the Chandler Wobble, the earth will be fine.

That said, I may be willing to take another pour to save mankind....

 

 

You are giver not a taker.  That's why I like you.

The oak is hitting just right on the palate this evening so, I reached to the back of the bunker for a EC18.

after I finished spending the afternoon shoveling snow/sleet, I cracked this open to enjoy. I figured since my b-day was the previous day I would drink the OF birthday bourbon barrel aged stout while sitting next to the fireplace. I didn't drink it on my actual b-day since I was too exhausted from being out of town hunting all day in 22deg weather.

After shoveling, snow blowing, sledding, and putting a smiley face on an oak tree (little Whammie contributed to all), I'm enjoying some B524.

Bought my first OF Statesman, what should I expect? Love OF products.

ECBP, another "Y" barrel from HH's You Do Bourbon tour. A friend brought this one.

 

Random PS: If in PR, the Barrilito mixology tour is much better than the one at Bacardi. Hadn't been to either in a few years.
