Favorite Whiskey?

I killed this one today while working in the garage on my new whiskey cabinet build.

 

It's a sad night here - 2 of Buffalo Trace bottle kills.

 

If you were a whiskey room, what color would you want to be?

 

Are you talking about this?

I’m a navy/dark blue kind of guy, but that middle dark green has me intrigued.

 

Changed my mind. I vote for the green.

I recently went with this Bordeaux color in my whiskey room project. The cabinet that I am building will go in this room.

 

Bottle Kill



No bottles in reserve, and probably won’t have any until my truck projects are done…

 

no- I was just saying there's 2 dead soldiers that were BT products.

 

How did you like it? Islay is my favorite single malt region, but I’ve never seen that one before.

 

Green my #1 but navy a close 2nd imo

 

Curious how you like this when you crack it. I have a buddy with that last name so if it's good it would be cool to get him a bottle

 

DK if it helps at all, but I always tip bottle downwards to get cork wet and twist few times before opening.

 

+1 for the green

 

I'd go green

 

Looks like its gonna be awesome. Looking forward to the finished product!

 

‘Tis the season…. Sláinte!!!!

 

Man! This is gonna be cool to follow! How big is said cabinet planning on being? Love that you have the skill to build something like this! Thanks for sharing!

 

Thanks for the compliments.

The overall dimensions are 18" deep, 31" wide, and 41" tall. It should hold at least 60 bottles inside when filled up. The bottom shelf will hold 4 rows of 7 bottles. I bought the wood on Feb. 21 & 22nd. I started with all rough cherry lumber in 8/4, 6/4, and 4/4 thicknesses and have been working on it after work and weekends. I have logged my progress over in the Any Woodworkers thread if you are interested in seeing the steps.

I will be sure to post up a pic with a fat pour when I finally get it finished up.
