I put one small ice cube in and sipping on it, o far I'm really enjoying this. I'm still new to Bourbon I've only had Knob Creek.

I just picked up a bottle of 27 year Parkers!! I am saving this one until I pass the last part of the CPA exam, hopefully by February or March!

Just cracked open a bottle of Woodford Reserve Master's Collection. Wow, what a great bourbon this is!

One bottle of Stagg down, one to go.
Maybe a trip to Total Wine to see what they have left.

I have a bottle of Elijah Craig 18 year open right now! Great stuff too!

I just pulled the trigger on a bottle of Parker's Heritage Collecton Golden Annversary bourbon! This is the one blended with bourbons from each decade since the 1960s (as old as 1968). I can't wait to try this one!

rack04 · 01-18-2010, 03:42 PM

I opened my bottle of Eagle Rare 17 yr last night and poured it over a single ice cube. A great bottle of Bourbon but I don't think it was worth the price tag.

paris1129 · 01-18-2010, 06:04 PM

Just ordered a couple bottles of Evan Williams Single Barrel!

Arrgghh. Never use cold water/ice with fine bourbon. The molecules in colder water effect the bourbon in a negative way as compared to using room temp water. I read this on a bourbon bb, so I believe it to be true.

If you are used to bourbon, don't expect the same with GJ. It's not a bourbon, but a Tennessee whisky. Charcoal filtered like regular JD, but a bit smoother. I got a bottle during the holidays. I couldn't drink it neat, as I do with almost all bourbons. Had to mix in some water.

Very nice indeed!

OHMatt · 01-24-2010, 09:37 PM

Tried a great new one this week; Old Grand Dad 114, this is sweet, rich, and syrupy like my standby Rittenhouse Rye 100 - it will be one to always have in the cabinet.

01-27-2010, 03:50 PM

Tried my first Bourbon today

Woodford, I'm used to drinking blended/single malts so it was a nice change of pace.

Looking forward to trying some other ones
