New Bourbon Thread: Bourbon Trail

I've had it, it's delicious

 

Noticeable lack of crotches recently, wHeRe’S tHe JuIcE?

 

Kind of that time of the year it seems. I don't even know what big has dropped recently.

 

EH Taylor Rye, Parker Heritage bottles, Heaven Hill B523s.

 

Oh, hadn’t seen this before so I grabbed it. I thought Emeald Giant was good, but under proof. We’ll see Friday.

 

Oklahoma is so far behind I never even know when to go looking for stuff as well. It's confusing.

 

It slaps. Just picked up a second bottle

 

I think it’s pretty good

 

Happy birthday to known whiskey collector Keef

 

Thank you sir, we still need to get the Georgia crew over to the house to drink some.

 

Anybody found this unicorn yet?

 

Relax, Aussie.

Jealousy gets you know where.

 

had an enjoyable evening at the market on my way home

 

Please let me know your thoughts on the malted rye are.

 

It’s a b+ pour. Absolutely delicious sweet bright menthol and deep cherry. Has a near perfect rye kick. Unique. Super happy with this. Really fucking good and would recommend highly

 

I wanted so much more for the price. Glad you like it. I’ll consider giving it another go after reading that.

 

agreed about wanting a little more. It’s really good. I got it for $75 in Ohio. Still worth it in my opinion. A little thinner and more linear than I hoped for based on the proof. After a few more sips I’m going b+. All good. That being said - I cannot get enough of the jack daniels barrel proof rye that shit is absolutely phenomenal the last two bottles I’ve gotten were money in the bank.

 

Comparing what I bought in the photo the malted rye is #3 the ecb a123 is good at #2 while the smokewagon uc/uf is the best. Got a new Jack Daniel’s barrel proof around 129.3 proof and that slaps the shit out of the the smoke wagon malted rye and is a touch above the ecb a123. Very much on par with with the smokewagon uc/uf with a little more horsepower and testosterone

all are awesome pours.

 

That's one grainy crotch shot. I think.

 

That is one clean bracelet.

 

Little bit of a different pic for a Friday. I’m building out a front sitting room, just got my first design board from the inspiration pics I sent him.

Spoiler

I’ve used this Havenly service for two other rooms. Absolutely would recommend checking them out.

 

Ohio guys, anyone get the email?

List isn’t posted yet but my wife got an email

 

Some of you guys should start getting packages today. I shipped everything out two days ago. Sorry for the delay.

 

Does anyone know who we can ask to get a fan of bourbon icon and hashtag? It would make it easier to alert people when something is going on like a release.

 

Taques

 

First step is finding I believe an opaque(sp?) imagine

 

Unless I get an email saying I didn't win, I do not anticipate getting an email.

Also a big fuck you to OHLQ for sending a Father's Day email this morning around the time I'd expect to hear about this drawing.

 

That won't be a problem.

 

Anyone have a preference of a bottle for the icon?

I was thinking Blanton's is one of the most recognizable.

 

Why not the monkey baby saz logo?

 

Can we talk about how that’s CLEARLY the wrong end from which to pour? Just huge missed opportunities there. Just imagine someone struggling to get that bottle open.

 

During our April lottery, a sorting error led to some customers winning multiple items. In order to take time and care to implement a new process, Virginia ABC will delay announcing the winners of the May 17-19 lottery until June 20, 2023.

lol “sorting error”

 

Wasn't there some that won all 4 bottles on BATC? No way that's a sorting error.

 

Yes there were like 4 that won the whole collection then like 20 that won multiples.

 

Not a huge fan of ryes, somebody sell me on MBSR.

 

It sucks, but I’ll take it off your hands as a gesture of friendship

 

Haven’t picked it up yet, everybody says it’s great, but wanted to get some opinions from you guys before I do.

 

Let me know when you get it and I’ll send you a label

 

A bourbon will be launched into space and aged for a year and will go for $75k.

Space will definitely give you those temperature fluctuations you need for proper aging....

 

I need a drink after pressure washing the back porch and driveway and dealing with my kid.

 

No jigger.

4/10.

Would not bang.

 

Ice looks like shit. 2/10

 

Speaking of ice, anyone fucked around with those clear ice trays?
