What Bourbon Are You Drinking Winter 2024/25?

Back to the JD SB Barrel proof. This is so good.... banana/cherry.... slight chocolatte on the nose. I think I like the nose better than the pallate, although, that doesn't let one down either. 😉

This is the first bottle I've bought of WTRB in 2ish years. Of course it still holds up as a wonderful sub $50 BP offering.

This one is fairly new to me and I received as a gift initially, but I’m liking their Wheated Bottled-In-Bond.

I would also recommend their high wheat 106pf version as well. Both are really good.

I popped the cork on this one this evening.  Penelope Architect.... build #8.

 

Interesting. Butterscotchy nose. Sweet at first, then finishes a bit bitter... in a good way.

Had a pour from an 'old' OFBB ('10).   Not my favorite OFBB; but, a very nice pour.     Almost half this bottle gone, I need to either decant into a smaller container, or pour it more often in the near future.....

My sole remaining OFBB is 2013, which was pretty much panned by most folks. I am still determined to consume it in the normal course. One of these days.

I opened this one tonight. EJC BP 136 proof. I think this was C16. Not too bad.

That batch is one of my favorites. For me, I usually taste a strong homemade vanilla ice cream note.  Which is unique to this whiskey for me. Enjoy!

 

Cheers

I see it’s a Sarah bottle, so we know it’s good… 😀

Got all excited when I started reading this post!  Calmed down when I saw the 10 and not a 25!  🤪

I just opened this tonight. It is very good. The white label Origin is also very good.

Starting off with some oddball wheaters tonight.  First up was Old Elk Double Wheat.  It's always good.  Now I poured an ounce of 1792 Sweet wheat.  It's a downgrade from the Old Elk.

I also had a pour of RY10 SiB.  I usually love this one, but honestly I want to go back to the Old Elk Double Oak.  It's just a great bottle.

 

Tonight's ranking:

1. OE Double Wheat

2.  Rebel Yell 10 Yr Single Barrel

3.  1792 Sweet Wheat
