I have one open right now, 2 pours during the holidays but I’m giving it a month and I’ll try it again.

Nice.  I've had the 6 year before and this one is smoother.

Doc swinsons alter ego. Quite nice blend of sherry and cognac finish

The more i drink the ecbp c21 the better i think it is. 120 proof and drinkable neat

Got to try this on Friday at a local bar. $20 for a pour. Was worth it. 125 proof and very easily drinkable neat. I liked it more than the 17year eagle rare I got the other month.

THH is pretty near perfection

Any opinions on Rittenhouse? Came across it the other day just wanting to try something new. It's ok on its own, but it seems pretty nice as a mixer. The 100 proof is well-concealed, and the layering is there, even if it's not real defined. It's not really heavy on the rye spice, moreso sweet and fruit-forward. I think it's a fine mid-shelf pick, though.

I forgot to mention the best part, since it was a $20 pour of Handy, to order it you had to say "I'd like a $20 Handy" :roll:

Got some Eaglerare I'm going to destroy Friday with a Monte Cristo

I know I've mentioned it before, but I'm a huge fan of Rittenhouse.

Rittenhouse is probably the best heaven hill product. Perfect everyday  rye to make cocktails

Popped a larceny bp B21. Very nice and easy to drink even at 120 proof.

Been loving the BT store picks of late

the distillery out here to watch is Starlight. They are making some really interesting stuff.

I just checked the Starlight site and they have a mix of liquors in addition to Bourbon/Whiskey.  Brandies, Rum, Gin, and Vodka as well.  They're also part of an orchard/vineyard and winery, Huber.  Might point them out to my one sales rep and see if her smaller company might be interested in them.

 

Mmmm smoke wagon ucuf is great
