Favorite Whiskey?

Definitely good, like any EH Taylor. But I wouldn’t go out of my way to pay over retail for it

 

Gotcha! I grabbed a few Crown Black Berry bottles today…I’ll do the same you made and also the SLB, as their’s is a slush in a way, if you didn’t see it.

But thanks for sharing!

 

No that’s fine collection!

 

Crown Blackberry and lemonade is the way

 

That act 5!!

Congrats! let me know how you like that lot bee

If anyone sees this babe and doesnt want it or has an extra, please send it my way!

That MMCA is soo delicious its illegal.

What were your ratios?

 

that Cellar aged wooooo buddy!!!!

 

I’m just gonna be honest, I’ve tried the MMCA and it wasn’t very good. And I WANTED it to be delicious. Kept trying it, kept not liking it. I wouldn’t pay retail for it (again). I’d much prefer any private selection.

 

I used about 6-8 blackberries and a little more syrup since my wife likes sweet cocktails.

 

may i have your leftovers?

 

You can have the rest of my sample!

 

Happy F(RYE)day ya’ll.

 

Had this with lunch today. Solid, but not worth what most places are asking for in my area.

 

Couple pours from last night

 

Picked up this today…. It’s fairly local to me, actually bought this at the distillery. What makes McKenzie Bourbon special, besides being local to me, is that they barrel their stuff at a low (100 proof). What that means is that when they bottle it the bourbon doesn’t get watered down from a higher proof and loose flavor and it doesn’t need to be barrel proof which tbh I love but not so much in the summer. It does make the bourbon much more expensive since you can’t water it down and stretch the barrel out to more bottles. Anyway $150 for a 10yr single barrel is a lot, but again having tasted it, it’s really something special. They do have lot of other stuff that’s less pricey as well but this bottle was just calling me today.

 

I am totally into collecting MWND. Many people dislike it, but I like the juicy port over rye flavors. Thus…my stupid collection. Most of which were purchased already cracked because people didn’t like it.

 

Hold on…what is single cask nation??? Is it good?

 

Cheers.

 

damn dude ! Now I have to find it, never seen it on the shelf

 

Is that scene 8? If so I just cracked mine. Prisoners Share is the damned bomb if you can find it .

 

My understanding is the main reason McKenzie chooses the lower entry proof is because theoretically a higher water content during the barrel aging process results in more sweetness and less astringent flavors. Which is why even though you can legally go as high as 125 entry proof, most distilleries don’t go over 110.
