What Bourbon Are You Drinking Spring 2025?

[Anwalt]

GeeTen is visiting PR. We are having quite a bit of fun - hard not to with him and his beloved. We've tried a good bit more than this pic, will post more later <hic!>.

 

He and I both like SFTB. So we tried the contrasts - 120.2 vs 134.4 proof. My, my what a difference 14 proof points make. His take shall surely be more nuanced.

 

Mine starts with commentary on the 120.2 in Modern Valley Girl aka "Tik Tok Standard English": "Like OMG. This Moscow Mule is sooooo good and has sooooo little alcohol. Goes down smoooooth and eaaasy. Let's have more! <Thud!>."

Good people here on SB dot com. Grateful.

After heavy pour of Blanton’s after working on starting the basement clear out.  I’m sorry to. Say that we didn’t get far.  How dis I accumulate this much stuff!

What were the Kinks lyrics, “Have another drink, it will make you feel better.  Have another drink it will make you feel fine.”

We celebrated our 32nd wedding anniversary today. I took the day off and we went back to the carousel where we got married. That's the same horse. Hung out with our grandson and daughter at the Butterfly House, then had a nice Jamaican cafe dinner. Capped it off with some roses.  Was a nice day. Glad I'll be working from home tomorrow!

Congratulations!  Great pictures.  You two look very happy.  And, nice to put a face to a name...

Which one did you like the most?

I'm not a big fan of 1792 (they seem a little hot to me..even the standard), but the BiB falls squarely in my wheelhouse.  That and the VOB 100 are my favorites from Barton.

BiB was the highlight of the flight.  I found a case of SP from Liquor Barn in a closet.

Nice and, damn! 

You might have  to rent a storage locker after you move.

I rarely see the BiB around here and hope to find a replacement.

Lol. Gotta love it when you find something you forgot stashed away somewhere.

 

I dig the BiB and SiB versions. Haven't had enough of the 12yr or wheat to have an opinion.

As I was finishing up my chat with Elmer last night, it was suggested that I might want to go have a talk with Bill. (No, Not Samuels) Who was I to argue?

I too have not met a Weller I did not like. This one is on my bucket list, but at the current market prices, it will be a hard find.

That WLW is from 2021. That’s the last year I was able to purchase one. For a number of years prior to that, I was lucky to have had my name drawn in a lottery every other year. Always picked the WLW. That streak ended in 2023. Been drawing a blank every since. It’s all good though. I’ve had my fair share of WLW’s over the years. I still have one left in my bunker. It’s my favorite. The 2007 bottling at 117.9 proof.
