Maggie’s What are you drinking right now!?

- Start date
Mom got me some Basil Hayden for Christmas....good enough to add some more to the melting ice.....
She also got me one of these....
I wasn't sure if it was a pot pipe or a anal thermometer.
Guess it's for adding a drop of water at a time to your whiskey.....obviously Mom does not pay attention to my whiskey drinking style.

Get some Old-Grand-Dad 114 to try the other extreme of that formula.
Your mother is a lady of grace and wants her son to have the proper way to add water to his whiskey. She continues to try but you Sir are apparently beyond help.

She fucking drinks Mich Ultras and Chardonnay with ice........who you want to hang with?
Well our baby girl, Adrianna came at 8:17pm last night nice and healthy at 8lb 5oz... mom and baby are doing great and everyone is excited to get discharged tomorrow.
Well running out to get some food and things I stopped into a store I've frequented for years to pick up a special bottle to celebrate when we get home tomorrow.
The owner had a crazy price on this so I passed on it last week when I was there... but told I stopped in and told him I just had a baby and was looking for a special bottle to celebrate and asked if he would work with me on the price... he asked what the babies name was then said yea sure I'll work with you.. he came back with a SIGNIFICANTLY lower price that I was blown away with...nowhere near secondary but a little over msrp and asked I don't advertise it.. so I came home with 3 nice bottles for a very reasonable price. The Stagg JR is the last of the Stagg Jr's before the name change....Batch 17...
Can't wait to get home tomorrow and celebrate with mom cheers some Lot B and a very nice bottle of merlot I got her after 9 months sober.

Right on. Glad you’ve recovered. Let us know your thoughts on it.
I guess having my friend managing a liquor store is a good thing.
He knows none of it is "collected" or sold.
I try something at a bar or restaurant , he orders it for a trial on the shelves.
Reminds me I have to cut a 10/22 stock for his small stature daughter.

damn you did good, congrats on the baby girl
Not to rain on your parade, but my brother got me those glasses last year and about 6 months ago I spit out a piece of glass that broke off of the tip of the bullet indentation inside the glass. I looked at the other 3 and they all had some glass missing at the same place.
Finally home from the hospital, settled down, baby is fed and asleep. Kids are upstairs relaxing.
Fiance and I can finally relax and have a drink. Cheers!

Wow thanks for the heads up . I'll keep a serious eye on em . They met be relegated to a shelf in da man cave .
Kind of fell off the wagon while I was on vacation in Florida early in December...
I have tried numerous times to drink bourbon/whiskey and I just cant do it. I was a rum drinker before and I guess I am still a rum drinker.
Drank a bottle of Papa's Pilar Marquesas down in Florida.
Picked up some fine selections when I got home. The Tequila is the wifes... yack...

Zacapa is one of my favorites. Try Don Centenario 25 or 30 yr if you like Zacapa. I think it’s much better if you can believe that. Also El Dorado 25 puts them both to shame but harder to come by. Personally not big on Flora Cana or Four Square, just my personal taste.Kind of fell off the wagon while I was on vacation in Florida early in December...

Just cracked the last Stagg Jr, Batch 17 128.7 proof.. super tasty pour while chilling with Adrianna today.

The Flora Cana was $40 and I think a 93 rated so I grabbed it... because lets be honest, while I am not poor, drinking $100+ bottles of liquor on the regular, just aint happening. It may be good, it may not be... I dont know, havent cracked it yet.
The Zacapa XO is fantastic. My neighbor is a whisky drinker and when he tried it he said "that shit is dangerous because its SO EASY to drink".
The Four Square Redoubtable was super highly rated so again, we shall see. Supposedly has a very distinct flavor since half the blend is aged in madeira wine casks. Might be for me, might not be for me.
Kind of like the Papa's Pilar Marquesa... Its aged in Bourbon barrels so it picks up that flavor. Im not a bourbon fan, so, for me the flavor was not spectacular with that harsh bourbon finish. I was told I would like the one that is aged in Sherry casks since its sweeter.
Baby, BBQ and Bourbon
Before and after. Smoked a rack of ribs that I just pulled off the smoker. Cheers

Happy 2022 fellas. Finishing off some 2oz samples I traded some WFE 8YR Purple top samples for a few months back..
2019 GTS - good, tasty but SJR batch 15 and 16 are better (especially 16)..
Old Fitz 15yr (Fall 2019) - absolutely delicious and one of the best pours I've had in 2021.... my favorite Old Fitz over 8yr, both 9yr's, 11yr, 14yr and 16yr.. the flavors, so smooth.. like eating your favorite desert
Anyone looking to trade some 2oz samples for WFE purple top 8yr bourbon let me know what you got.

I bought nearly the entire allocation for my state of their 5 year selection way back when. It had a sort of JuicyFruit gum taste to it.
I’ve not had the 5 yr but it’s one of my favorite ryes. I can see that analogy! It’s very distinct. The 10 yr to 2,3,4 yr just gets more complex and danker if that makes sense. If ya got any left I’d love to try it. PM me.
I have an EHT Single Barrel open right now that is crazy good. They are all good, but this one is something special.
Had two fingers of this the evening of the 30th. 1943 bottle, very smooth. I enjoyed it.
The guy who shared it with us rescued it from a chucklehead that dumped half a bottle in with fucking coke and ice as they were going through a loved ones estate. WTF. A $500 bottle for a mixer…

It’s 9 degrees outside. This seems appropriate.

Ran out of Cynar 70 several weeks ago and couldn't find any on the shelves. Tonight I decide "fuck it let's open another Yippee Ki-Yay" from my stash. What do I find in that box? An unopened Cynar 70! Still opened the Yippee Ki-Yay, I will likely need the Cynar 70 tomorrow.
