What Bourbon/Scotch are you drinking?

I ordered these after watching Neat

Not bourbon but I found this today. It’s been a couple of years since last time I ran into one.

While the middle one hasn't been opened i got a taste from the shop and man oh MAN all three are absolute winners.

And they had a couple EW single barrels left on the shelf so i snagged a backup for the one I already had. For those who havent heard it will be a KY only release moving forward so if you arent near Bardstown or Louisville and your local still has some, recommend bigly that you pick one up. Unbelievable bottle at 30 bucks.

I have to say, I was really impressed with the smoothness and flavor of the EC. Like you said, an incredible value for a great bourbon

 

Buffalo trace OTR on my flight to Denver.

It really is, these Private Barrel picks are absolutely mind-bending to be honest. Granted they're not Willett purple tops....but they also aren't priced anything LIKE a purple top either.

 

that's a great drink.

 

Found a bottle of this. I’ve never tried it but it’s been recommended to me.

Cracked open the Uncle Nearest. It’s great. I recommend.

Also this thing came in.

I grabbed a bottle of Buffalo Trace Kosher Rye the other day. Not bad for $40. I'd never pay what it goes for on the secondary market though.

 

New thing to try:

Dickel 15 year which is pretty impressive particularly for the money.

Also grabbed an Old Fitzgerald 17 year.

I’ve got these. Not a huge fan of Japanese whiskey. Got any rare bourbon you want to trade?

Not rare or anything but a neat experiment by the local boys (and by local the master distiller and I used to work together he's unbelievably smart). Can't go to the release this weekend with other plans but preordered and picking up a bottle next week.

Had a little WRDO to pregame before the Lyft took us to Golden Tiki.

Friends of mine ordered a barrel 11 years ago, forgot about it. To the their surprise got a delivery to Germany during lockdown last year.
They said it's not for the faint hearted and I cannot wait to have a taste! Probably pulls tooth fillings out

What did you think of the Orphan Barrel and the Uncle Nearest 1884?

 

I haven't opened the OB yet. The UN is fantastic. It is now officially my go to $50 whiskey as long as I can find it. It's destined to be one of those bottles that every wants.

 

The UN 1884 is in virtually every store in my area. Do you know if the mash bill is rye or wheat based for the second ingredient? I tend to like rye based bourbons much more than wheaters.

 

I honestly haven't investigated it that deeply. Although it's officially neither a rye or a bourbon, it has the characteristics of a non wheated bourbon to my palette. I'm sure there are expert reviews of it available on the web which are going to be more qualified than mine. For now it's easy enough to find and it's not that expensive, so grab a bottle ... I'd be interested in your thoughts on it.

 

Never tried this. Hope it’s yummy.
