Uh, after 5 minutes in the glass....definitely reserving judgement for later. Lol, carry on

Damn, well it is just the neck pour. But so far, the new 119.84 proof is not nearly as good as the 118.58 proof. I shall try them again next week. I have 1 open plus 3 back ups of 119 and only 2 sealed bottles of 118. I hope this gets good FAST

You had me worried. So I checked. My open and its 3 backups are all 118s. So I will not experience the 119.

The power of Seagrass compels us!

Converted my neighbor across the street to Seagrass on Saturday. It competed admirably with the also-finished-rye Whistle Pig 12.

Seagrass Posse! We should have dealer buttons made.

 

[Big Jilm]

Posse? No sir. Bourbon Mafia and the Ryes Guys.

Btw way I reserve all rights, patent pending bitches.

I don't know why people are panning this. It's really good.

people just like to shit on JD.

I'm not a fan of bourbon or by extension Tennessee Whiskey in general, but it's like shitting on Jameson. Just because they make a lot of product doesn't mean the product is bad.

Pretty good surprise here. Was kinda pressured into it, but turned out right.

Tropical fruit punch nose that transitions to chocolate with some air time.

Mainly leather and chocolate, with some corn and light tobacco on the palate.

Kinda of back to some fruit on the finish.

Encouraging bottle at $50

I panned it because the single barrel barrel proof JD is cheaper, better, easier to find, and higher proof. The JD10 I have is not better than the JD SB BP I have. It's good, but not good enough.

Curious, any love here for the Russel's 10 Year. It has been sitting in my garbo pile for some time.....but I have never tried it. LMK if I should pop it or drop it.

For the price, it's very solid.

It’s good. The Russell’s single barrels are good too.

Murray Hill Club down. Ultimately, I loved the last 6 or 7 pours. However, at $90, I will pass on future purchases.

That said, Joseph Magnus is on deck. The nose off the bottle is already better than MHC

I keep passing on this bottle for around $99 plus tax. Should I get one?

like balcones for the most part

blue corn >>> baby blue though

We put a good dent in the EC B521 last night at the game, definitely the best batch I’ve ever had.

Finally poured my bottle that’s been open for a few months. To me, it’s worth the $70 price tag. The lower proof is full of flavor but doesn’t pack the punch of my favorite batches: C919, B520 and C920. Still very good.

I agree with this sentiment wholeheartedly!

 

[FDLmold]

I'm guessing this is the last bottle of this I will ever see in the wild. It's been on this shelf for a couple weeks now. People around me JUST DON'T KNOW. And I'm ok with that.

I hear that Dovetail is good too. I missed the boat

I think I can get it, but not at OR prices.

Looks like $79.95 here. Also, like the Seagrass, it is starting to pop up in Oregon again. I will def pick one up if I see it

Dovetail was the first barrell bourbon I tried and I hated it. I swore off barrell bourbon until someone forced me to try seagrass. Haha now I’m the seagrass hype man

 

[Big Jilm]

No pics, but I had a nice full pour of Blanton's when I got home. Very enjoyable, not sure why I look down on it so much.
Next pour was Smoke Wagon, the regular bottle. Low proof but still delicious. Cheers!
