I really am loving the Colonel E.H. Taylor small batch.

Also just picked up a bottle of Old Weller Antique. I never see this stuff so I had to grab it while available.

I think you will be surprised by the Old Weller Antique.

Yes, I am liking the Old weller Antique. I also picked up a bottle of Weller Special Reserve. It is good but I would rather have had another OWA 107

I saw some Knob Creek single barrel store picks and that will be the next pickup.

My wife and I were in the Evan Williams Bourbon Experience this past Friday doing the Speakeasy Tour. It was a fun tasting and I picked up a couple of souvenirs:



The Elijah Craig is the smoothest "high octane" whisky I've ever had.

Found a bottle of Russell's Reserve that someone gift me last year. Cracked it open tonight. Know nothing about it, but it has a nicely sweet vanilla undercurrent to it. I really should keep better track of where these gifts come from so I can thank people appropriately ...

Ok so I have been on a bit of a binge lately.

1792 Full Proof
Hotel Tango Single Barrel Bravo Bourbon
Bumbu original rum
and a cognac I cant quite remember what kind though.

I think my liquor store has painted a target on me! Every Sunday I get an email titled "Sunday Funday 20% off" and it has some libation that I just cannot do without.

Sampled Pappy 23 Year for the first time at a dinner last night. Good, but with my palette, I don’t think I could ever justify the price point. At least I can say I’ve tried it.

Really enjoyed batch B from 2017. OF 1920 is another one I forgot to mention above. That’s been a really solid drinker for me

Black Coral John hooked me up with this at Christmas time. The nose on this bourbon is ridiculous, and it tastes purty fricking good too.
