Bourbon

[Steve O]

Good God Reburn! Send me coordinates and I ll be over....

Anybody tried the Boone and Crockett club whiskey? There was an 80 proof and 86 proof bourbon ($30) and 86 proof rye ($35) in Glenwood springs store. Cool but I couldn't bring myself to buy it. Cool bottle with elk skull and "tag" around neck. I ll prob get one next time. Didn't look they were moving many... Maybe get rye for old fashioned... even if its not great could mask it...

( now that I've asked the question I ll go back in this thread to see if anyone has already answered it, thanks).

All those are rough. Consider it a donation to B&C and use it if you like making mixed drinks. The year before they released it they had a sampling at Sheep Show where I tried all three…did NOT go back for any seconds.

Little drink to get me through waiting for the results tonight…

I went looking for the Jimmy Russell 70th only to find out its going to be super allocated here. Yet another I probably won't get to taste.

Left with a Smokewagon toasted.

If you're a toasted fan, look for a Penelope Toasted Rye, very good for the price point.

Last weekend. This particular barrel was quite exceptional.




This weekend.

Knob Creek is my go-to. Anything with a little more rye too.

I was getting into bourbon but I guess I'm not great at moderation so I'm getting out of it. The stuff is just so good that it's really hard just to pour a bit, sip it and be done with it for the evening.

Their bottles look so much like a generic TV prop...

But all the half dozen or so I've had were very enjoyable.

The barrell seagrass in regular form and grey label and gold label is hands down one of my top 5 all time favorites.

I find all barrell stuff to be at least above average to great.

I've only had the gold Seagrass, it was phenomenal.

I generally prefer darker whiskeys, but yeah, the worst of the barrel of Barrels is a well above average whiskey.

Never judge a bottle by it's label!

Woodford double oaked makes a great old fashioned. Russell's Reserve 10 is one of my favorite daily drivers.

Woodford does an occasional distillery only release that is Double Double Oaked. absolutely phenomenal.
