Re: What are you drinking right now?
Just finishing my bottle of Hudson Whiskey Four Grain Bourbon while watching the Devils game. I did a review of this over a year ago on another site. I copied it below. It took me over a year to finish the bottle, so I wouldn't call it a favorite of mine. I probably won't be buying this again. I'm just making room for new bourbons!!
Reviewed 11/10/2007 That's right! Hudson Whiskey just released Hudson Baby Bourbon!! From their website.... HUDSON BABY BOURBON is made with 100% New York State corn. No additives or coloring added. This is honest single-grain whiskey. Bottled at 92 proof, labeled, wax-sealed and numbered by hand at the distillery. Tuthilltown Spirits in Gardiner, New York is the first distillery producing hand made vodkas and whiskey in the State since the repeal of Prohibition. Our spirits are made from New York agricultural products. Unlike most vodkas, at Tuthilltown we distill our spirits from scratch right at the distillery making use of the local original materials such as whole fresh apples, New York corn and local wine grapes. We never use industrially produced neutral alcohol in our products. Taste them and you'll see for yourself. Our apple vodkas are truly the HEART and SPIRIT OF THE HUDSON. And our whiskey leaves no doubt it's origin. This extraordinary single grain bourbon is out the small American made charred Oak Whiskey barrels. The BABY is available at fine spirits shops and restaurants throughout the Hudson Valley. Our unique aging process produces a mildly sweet, smooth spirit with hints of vanilla and caramel. HUDSON BABY BOURBON is fermented from 100% New York corn. It is the first bourbon made in New York and the first legal pot-distilled whiskey to be made in New York since the start of Prohibition. It is a true American classic. Distilled and bottled in limited quantity so place your bottle order or private reserve barrel order now. My review..... I never thought I'd see a bourbon made in New York, so when I came across this one, I had to try it. It's rather pricey ($40. / 375ml) but then again what in NY isn't. Over the past 3-4 years I've been sampling every different kind of bourbon I can get my hands on, and this one is very unique. Right on the bottle, it says its made with four grains (Corn, Rye Wheat, & Malted Barley) and I'm no expert, but I swear I can pick up each one. It wasn't smokey nor harsh and finished surprisingly smooth. I didn't pick up on the hints of vanilla or caramel like it says on their website and the finish although smooth, was somewhat flat. I enjoyed my first taste of Hudson's Bourbon, but I'll have to revisit it to really decide if I'll be buying more or not. It's definately worth trying to pick up the other flavors, but as far as being a staple in my bourbon rotation I'm not sure if this one is going to cut it. I'll finish off the bottle, but then I'll probably stick to Kentucky for my bourbon selection. Check out the website for more info. http://www.tuthilltown.com/

Glenrothes Vintage 1991 Single Malt Scotch
I got this bottle last year from a vendor for the holidays and never got around to cracking it open. When I received the same bottle again this year, I knew I had to give it a try. Wow! The description of the character on the bottle says it all. (Berry, fruits, vanilla & butterscotch) What an awesome single-malt! I'm not big on single malts, but this may be one of the best I have ever tried. I would reccomend this bottle to any fan of Scotch...blends or singles. I've seen the bottle in stores from $80 on the high end to $60 on the low end which is probably a steal! I'm really happy I have 2 bottles now.....wow!
