| That's an awesome shot of the Ardbeg in the snow. You ought to send that to them. |

Quoted:
I promised a photo of something other than wine (okay there is a Port). I had to dust off some of these bottles so it didn't look so crummy. 
Here's the home bar, sans wine. Not much top shelf here at the moment. I drank it all last summer and fall.

I’m looking forward to seeing what can be learned from the tasting. |

I've been easing into Single Malts.  I had a dram of the Japanese and wasn't impressed at all. Attached FileRandom sale day at the local store 
Also- stay away from this Brenne stuff. It is beyond weird. This makers 46 might just turn my opinion of bourbon... |

Hey now... at 136 proof, it’s freakin good! Hot on the tongue but not in the chest. https://www.AR15.Com/media/mediaFiles/12632/49B46149-C6E1-41B7-8EFE-367E81A48625-490361.jpg https://www.AR15.Com/media/mediaFiles/12632/A5BC11F6-18FD-46C8-8150-0A71F9F88A85-490364.jpg |

Finally replenished my poison of choice a couple of weeks ago. Just now getting the chance to post it
Found a gift set with a cut crystal glass. I think it was leftover from Christmas but I'm not complaining. Wish I had more of the cut crystal glasses. I have other Woodford glasses, but this cut glass is really, really nice. .

Attached File 11 different Cragganmores and 6 different Lagavulins anchor my 40+ bottle collection. |
A little score last night and this morning. Just became available in the state, we grabbed a bottle yesterday and tried it, liked it, grabbed two more from a different store this morning. It's good, smooth, light/easy drinking and reminiscent of a Weller. (though, not the same)
 PS - Damn, I need a new desk...

I was out of Weller so I made the rounds last week and managed to score a couple bottles and picked up a couple other Bourbons.
Attached File Visiting my mom this weekend a couple states away and hit a small town liquor store. They had some Weller at a decent price so I picked up a couple more bottles.

So...
Uh... I have something many people have never seen before... But I'm scared you'll all hate me... 
Well, here goes... What's in the box??  Guess yet?  Ermagerd!! A whole case!! 
 Dream, fulfilled!  Through some unbelievable magical deal with the devil or something, PA has managed to acquire a supply of Weller that will be released periodically all throughout the year. (per the BT rep) I've seen two releases of it so far, with fair quantities available. They've got Weller 12 yr coming soon, as well. These are good times in the land of the FUDD!! |

Attached File Great weekend! Just spent last Thursday/Friday and Saturday hitting the Bourbon Trail. Stayed in downtown Louisville at the Seelbach Hotel. Hit Bulleit (Stitzel-Weller) Thursday. Buffalo Trace and Woodford Reserve on Friday. Jim Beam, Makers Mark and Heaven Hill on Saturday. Great dinner in Bardstown at The Rick House. Sunday at the Knob Creek Machine Gun Shoot. The pic is the stash I came home with. Most of the MM Mint Julep and Bourbon Cream are for friends. Had no intention of bringing back so much Woodford Reserve as most of my tastes come from the Buffalo Trace line. |

I've had my eye on it. |

Attached File Can't recall where I got the green one or the Michelob bottle. But I do remember I found the vodka bottle in my great grad father's she'd down the river cabin and was able to keep it. |

My depleted liquor cabinet is unworthy of a pic. I need to restock.
I’m down to a small bottle of suntory, some Makers, and Woodford reserve. I believe that for perhaps the first time in a decade, I have no single malt scotch (from Scotland) and no Irish whiskey of any kind. Sad. |

Quoted:
Nothing wrong with what you have, some tasty stuff there. How's the Templeton Rye? I've had my eye on it. I’d like to pick up something new to try. Out of the following which one should be my next to pick up? -Buffalo Trace (this was my original “next”, but willing to try something else first) -Four Roses Small batch -Woodford Reaserve -Bulleit -Elijah Craig 12y -Makers 46 (Is it better then the standard makers?) |

Quoted:
So Bulleit 10y or Woodford Reserve double, over the Buffalo Trace? Quoted:
Quoted: Get the 10 Year Old Bulleit or the Woodford Reserve Double Oaked. Both of them would be a step up from what’s on your list and only cost a little more. |
|
Quoted: Sure, meet somewhere in Kansas for the drop off?  what didnt you like about the kavalan? I think it does taste "young" but their line up has a diversity to it few others do. Glenmorangie is the only other distiller that comes to mind |
|
Quoted: Its pretty good, especially if you like Rye. *edit* I just had some of the Blantons (still my favorite, at this point), followed up by some Templeton. Templeton has a nice smooth flavor with that after burn you get with the rye, but not too bad. In my opinion. It’s not as complex and flavorful as the Blantons but not bad.*/edit* I’d like to pick up something new to try. Out of the following which one should be my next to pick up? -Buffalo Trace (this was my original “next”, but willing to try something else first) -Four Roses Small batch -Woodford Reaserve -Bulleit -Elijah Craig 12y -Makers 46 (Is it better then the standard makers?) Makers 46 is def better than standard Makers, but with a bit more spice. BT is damn good for the price, but a step down from Blantons Elijah Craig 12 is another really good for the price, but haven't seen an age stamped "12" in awhile, they all say "small batch" now. Another vote for Double Oaked if you go Woodford, unless you don't care for the smoky oak flavor. I never got into 4 Roses line, many love it, I just like others more. Bulleit makes great Rye at a great price, but the Bourbon hits me as harsh/burn. |
