Favorite Whiskey?

Damn shame I’m going dry next month.

Cheers.

 

Today’s finds at a random grocery store

 

Collected some offerings this past week.

 

Tonights face off.
Sam Houston 15. MGP. A little bitter up front, caramel and vanilla mid palate, spicy oak almost like french oak.

Bookers 22-04, Pinkies blend. Oak, mellow, brown sugar, a bit of orange peel and peeper, followed by dry roasted peanut shells. Rich.

Stagg, 23B. Higher proof ethanol up front, lighter oak, BT fruit notes, very short finish, quite a dissapointment.

Winner, by a large margin: Bookers Pinkies blend.

 

Try 50/50 BT kosher wheat-Eagle Rare blend. Its damned good. Ohhhh yeahhhh (Hodge Twins)

 

Is the michters on the far right any good? Grocery store had one bottle of it today. Think it was 55$ or so.

 

Not a bad day

Death to bottle

 

It’s just ok. The sour mash and American whiskey are both better buys. The single barrel rye is great for the price too

 

Keep playin with yer Willies and you'll go blind.

Sipping outside by the fire.

 

My favorite bottle of last year! Real bummer to kill it. Heavy wheat, nice rye tones

 

I’ve got a bunch of bottles with just a small bit in the bottom. Trying to clear out the shelves during holiday break. For $23, Old Overholt BiB rye is amazing, seriously. So easy to drink.

 

Love me a bourye. Cheers.

 

Ohhhhh man, now that is high end!

 

Costco had a smoke wagon barrel select that reads "Colorado". I kept meaning to try it and this was good enough reason to grab a bottle

 

Had a leg injury (IT Band syndrome) so I won't be having any of drinks from my cabinet this Christmas Taking anti-inflammatory meds and doc said no drinking.
Cheer to those who will be celebrating!

 

I won this awesome little Lee Greenwood edition bourbon last night……..

 

Solid weekend of hunting. All at msrp. I hope everyone is getting lucky during the holiday/allocation season!
