I've a nice bottle to share when you come to FL.

Old Forrester... Damn good with a coke if needed

Blantons.. Awesome Quality stuff!( known to be one of the original small batch single barrels')

and have only wanted to try the others still!!


Just picked up some Wild Turkey Rare Breed.. Wow.. Strong.. Potent.. but a HUGE kick of fruit sweetness that caught me off gaurd. Along with that and an extreme amount of caramel, All in all Worth a shot ;)

I've tried drinking it neat, just too damn strong. I put just a small amount of water in it, NEVER ice.

Last night I had a couple glasses. One of Elijah Craig 18, one of Jefferson's Reserve, and one of the regular Jefferson's. Good stuff.

Basil Haydens for me :tu

Last night had some Wild Turkey Rare Breed.... Good stuff, really "Mellow" in flavor for being so strong, but well worth the 30$+ for a Straight from a Barrel Bourbon IMO

One of the most under appreciated bourbons out there. For the money, I think it stands up well to Buffalo Trace's specialty bottles.

Please someone tell me what this means in EWSB bourbon talk.
Having my first talk of Pendlton tonight, not sure if it is a bourbon or not. Thanks for the help.

Re: The Bourbon Thread!!
 
Pendlton is a Canadian whiskey I believe...I had it one time a while ago. Isnt EWSB a discontinued bourbon?

Only 4 days left until the biggest bourbon day of the year, the Kentucky Derby! Can't wait for it, anyone else in the area going?

EWSB - Evans Williams Single Barrel.....very good stuff for usually under $20 to boot. Was in a blind bourbon tasting and a whole lot of folks picked it higher than bottles more than double it's price.
