1792 BiB in the glass.

O's kicked ass.

Terps & Caps on TV.

Oliva Serie V in hand.

It's a pretty good Thursday night.

Took wife out to dinner for our anniversary. Had a pour of PVW15 and Knob Creek in an old fashioned. The PVW15 was only $50 for 2oz. I deserved it after 9 years. 🤣

Last night was pours of KC9 over ice, ER, and EC toasted while watching an exciting Arkansas vs Texas Tech game that went to OT.

It was a good time going back and forth between these three over the course of the evening.

From the bunker, Annis' Answer and old school beam wax last night.  Blast of peanuts on the nose.  A good but not great batch of Booker's.  The Knob Creek was better IMO.  If I recall, it's around 14yo.  Interestingly, both of these were bought for about $50 and now Booker's costs almost twice as much as the KC SiB.  It's why I haven't bought Booker's in years...

I got a bottle of the Bulleit BiB. It is very good, IMO.

Some KC9 in the glass. I've been drinking a lot of this lately. Around here it's $22 at the moment. An exceptional value for a 9yr age stated bourbon.

Wow.  $22 for that whiskey is beyond comprehension!

A stiff pour of OGD BiB to finish off a low-fill bottle (Orange Screw Cap! . . . As if that mattered).

I got a few of these on sale for $19 ea. and I'm enjoying it.  It's a good first after dinner pour as it's not to hot at 93.7 proof but has some nice sweet flavors.  It's pretty good in a cocktail, too.

A heavy handed pour to empty the Stagg Jr 15 from the decanter.

Started with Maker's 46 cask strength. It hit the spot, so I'm having another pour 😉.

I wanted some MGP tonight. Drinks very bright & lively with a long cherry finish. These bottles are a little pricey but worth it imo.

Uncorked an 'old' Rare Breed (112.8-pr) in an effort to yet again try to squelch this damned virus.   One healthy pour neat, sipped over about an hours time.   Either that was a big mistake, or cutting the grass (which wiped me out bigtime!) or maybe both.   Anyway, much worse now and heading to bed early.

Weller SR. The last pour from the bottle. No man up-man down this time. I only have two SR’s left. Reckon I shouldn’t have passed on one today. 😏

I found a mid-2000 teens bottle of KC deep in the bunker. It was a SP from 2016 when they were begging retailers to buy a barrel every few months. I have a note it's 13yr 10months so not as good as the 14yr. :) I cut it by 1/3 with Distillers Cut to make it taste better. Yeah, yeah that's the ticket!!!

Opened a KC 12 tonight, and I am happy to report that the oft-disparaged neck pour was, in fact, fantastic.
