Nice! How’s the Old Carter? I really would like to find a couple bottles but it’s not for sale in Michigan.

Worth the MSRP. That’s the batch 10 rye. Every offering I’ve had from them is fabulous. Have had the entire flight three years running thus far
Nope, don't have Batch 12.
About to kill this New Riff Single Barrel, which I really enjoy. Pulled out my Good Old Times Barrel Strength Toasted Cigar Blend 8/24 Kobe/Snoop Special edition pick to sip on. Shit is ssooo good. Wish I bought more of these last year. Cheers

The DEPS store pic NR SiB are delicious.
I'm a big NR fan... especially the SiB which is leaps and bounds better than the SmB...and the SP's are better yet! I have NR SiB Rye SP which is absolutely delicous.
Other fun thing to do with Rittenhouse; 2 parts Rit BIB 1 part Old Forester Signature (the standard 100 pf offering).
You now have a really close approximation of the original Pennco/Michter's whiskey.
Given all the higher proof Old Forrester variants now, might be real interesting to try it with the Pikesville.
Unless you are old the only real Michter's anyone has tasted the past several decades is the A.H. Hirsch 16. That was a $60-65 bottle for a very long time before things went stupid.
***ROFL, even more stupid, seeing stuff online at $20,000 for it now, it was good, it wasn't THAT good.

Hirsch makes a 7.5 year finished in cognac casks. 120ish proof. About $160 a bottle. Phenomenal bourbon.
I’ve got 2 Michter’s 10s. One unopened, one with about 2oz left in it, those are special occasion bourbons

Great to know. I’ll try one of my OF SiB and Pikesville and how it comes out!
Bit of a celebration tonight. Personal matter that’s been handled. 
Pretty tasty. It needs to open up thou. Definitely different in a good way. Bourbon, Rye and Brown Rice whiskey. I do like the Rye bite it has. Wonderful finish!

Feeling like a Poor tonight, Kirkland blended Scotch Whiskey. Not Bad for the price, but I’d prefer a Single Malt like Glenfiddich ( older is better).
First Pour a few weeks ago was underwhelming…. It has opened up and is very tasty now. Still like RR13 better but this is good, just different.
It’s more than “a bit sharp” on the palate (hey, what ‘cha want for a $20 bottle of rye?), but de rigor for today …
USDA Prime Bone In Ribeye roast seared then slow cooked at 250F on the smoker until internal temp of 125F, then let rest for 30min paired with Lot B. Cheers and Happy Thanksgiving Eve

Ooooh, daddy like
Having another Pour of this Larceny B522. It is VERY comparable to Weller Full Proof. This B522 has that oak kick on the finish. Very tasty and I would highly recommend if your looking for a high proof Wheat’r
The A122 is sweeter and has chocolate on the finish.

I'm not currently drinking it, but I still smell of Makers Mark, and shiner boch.
Was starting to feel a bit under the weather so made the standard elixir; 50/50 Drambuie and 10 yo Laphroaig Cask Strength over ice.
My dad is in his late 80s. I get him a bottle of bourbon every Christmas, a tradition for many years now. Typically, I get the more commonly available stuff, like Knob Creek 12, or the various Makers. I'm not a bourbon aficionado, although I do like bourbon and can tell the difference between the "good" and "bad" stuff.
He likes the Knob Creek 12 but isn't picky. I guess at his age he just thinks it all gets you to the same place
.
Looking to get a something a bit more unique but also a known quantity. Any suggestions for around 150?

If he likes the Beam flavor profile one of the Booker's or Baker's will be in his wheelhouse. Maker's is a wheater so one of the fancier age stated Old Fitzgerald if available in your area might be a nice one.My dad is in his late 80s.

Not sure what kinda selection you have access to but if you’re seeing KC12 then possibly KC15 or Horse Soldier Reserve cask strength. That’s a great one. Whistle Pig 12 yr Old World Rye if you wanna change it up. It’s delicious.My dad is in his late 80s. I get him a bottle of bourbon every Christmas, a tradition for many years now.
