This jumped out at me and said, "You're kind of Beamish at times.  Why not give me a go?"

My first impressions; a little on the hot side, and very sweet.  Further research is necessary, but on another night.

I'm kinda' a Beam fan anyway, but the 3 or so bottles I've had of the SB always seem to get better 1/3 of the way in. It seems to be a different and better bottle with air.

New to the forum, but these are the bottles I picked up from Thanksgiving to New Years. It was kind of a wild month or so and I was very lucky…

Lol I thought the same thing when I picked it up. I’ve always heard J Mattingly was pretty good but never had it. This one is a liquor barn pick so I’m not sure where the name came from.

Yeah 2020 Ram 1500 lol. I don’t normally do the crotch shot, but picked this up for $100 and got a little excited about it. Was trying to quickly get the picture to a buddy so he could get one before they sold out.

I was out running errands and made a couple of side stops.  This LS was running a buy 5 get one free and 20% off on all 375s.  I grabbed these for <$75 with tax.  I would have mixed but nothing else caught m y eye on the 375 shelf.

I didn't know they did PS in 375s.

Smart move by Suntory.  I might actually purchase new Private Selections if the volumes are smaller and the investment is lower. 

 

Now, ... what to do with the thousands (millions?) of 750 mL bottles languishing on shelves nationwide 🤔....

Crotch shot!

 

I debated this for a few days, but figure for MSRP if I open my other bottle and I like it now I’ll have a backup and if I don’t I’ll have a real good Christmas gift for someone next year.

We had a great evening of billiards, darts, bourbon, food and cigars.  I ended up with about 20 in attendance, most of which played billiards ( more for fun than anything).  No photos were allowed due to a couple of the quests were politicians (local and federal).  We even ended the evening around a bonfire with cigars and a bottle of RR15 .
I have a lot of glasses to wash.  But will deal with that tomorrow.  I won nine of the ten games of 9 ball I played.  Here is the haul: (exceeded size, more pics to follow)

Love the Rip decanter.  That juice is great but has just a touch of lead in it.  Might help the politicians:}

Cheers

Those were emptied in my youth, a long time ago.  The lead may explain a few things though.  Now they are bookends/decor in the basement bar.
