Favorite Whiskey?

Not sure if you know this, but there are 2 different mash bills that Four Roses makes, with 5 yeast strains, making 10 each with different tastes. If you find one too fruity then try a different mash bill.

I was about to mention this, but I just figured he’s crazy for not liking it

 

Nice Glass!!

 

The regular single barrel is always the same recipe. The barrel proof and store picks are the only way to get single barrel with a different recipe.

 

In my little corner of NC, this is harder to find than Eagle Rare so I don’t drink it very often. I generally save it for guests who may have not had the chance to have it. Unfortunately, I believe it is worth the ‘tatering’ it receives. It’s nothing spectacular, but for MSRP it is hard to beat. Same with Eagle Rare. But as soon as the price goes above that, I move on to something else.

 

opened my first old tub last week, I really enjoyed the first two glasses, now it’s meh, for $16 I guess it’s okay....cinnamon and peanuts then falls flat. Will be for inexperienced guests

 

id just use it for mixed drinks

 

wife is like, what whiskey do i use to make this or that cocktail?

--- ol tub.

 

I definitely don’t like Old Tub as much as Evan Williams BiB, but it does ok mixed with soda water and a couple dashes of bitters. It won’t be a bottle I seek out again for sure.

 

One Sazarec down.

 

Such a good pour

 

I don’t consume sugar, so mixed drinks are out....once in a blue I’ll make one on vacation

 

Mail call

 

That’s good to hear, I’ve been holding onto my bottle for almost 2 years

 

Which smoke wagon is that?if that’s what it is. I love the uncut, just tried the straight bourbon a buddy got me and like that one, as well

 

It's a 10 year pick, figure I'll try it this weekend against the uncut.

 

I really liked their offerings. Good balance of sweetness and spice. Also, very smooth

 

Found this today, figure it’s still relatable to this thread lol

 

Please, let me know how it tastes when you open it. I feel like I need to search for it now mostly out of curiosity

 

Opened it tonight lol. It’s exactly as you’d expect, tasted like anejo but with a hint of a bourbon profile to make it a bit different. It’s so smooth it could be very dangerous
