that is going to taste like used bandaids and raw wood
So I see you’re familiar with the taste of Jersey Girls???

Why? Is it distilled by Ardbeg?
Nope, no ashtray and road tar on the finish

Having a favorite tonight. Starts pretty hot, but mellows out and finishes great with ice.

Sunday night football sips. Eagle Rare two ways. A wee glencairn gets a wee piece of ice.

How does that compare to the standard toasted barrel they offer? Does the “European oak” really make that much of a difference.
I have the opportunity to purchase one for $130 but I doubt it’s worth that considering I can get the standard toasted for $65 after tax.
I think they sold for $99+tx if you could find one here.

The toasted barrel seed was planted
Not like I needed a reason

Opening night in the NHL, so a 100% Canadian rye is most definitely in order!
LFG PENS!!!
I’ll have one with you later when the Kraken game starts.

If I’m still sipping on Alberta by the time that game starts, I’ll probably have to call in sick tomorrow

Doing alright thus far. The open bottle is not pictured…
This has been a great night. First I went to a bottle that I haven't drank for quite a while and finished off the last pour. I had forgotten how good OF 1897 is. Now that this half bottle has been kicked, I need to get a new full sized one.
Then the baseball game was going well (Astros) so I decided I might as well open up a bottle of the BBNABG-II that showed up today, Thank you @wolfpack for organizing this GB and thanks to @Bluegrass Poker for handling the shipping. OMG! this is so freakin delicious. I was originally thinking I'd sip on one bottle now and save the second for a special occasion coming up in about a year. But I don't think it's going to last that long. I'm already on my second pour! You guys (the ones who picked it) really knocked it out of the park! Just like my Astros did tonight! Fantastic bourbon! Thanks to all who were involved!

. But I popped mine the night after I got back from picking them up and man! It's not as complex as I'd like but the flavor is really nice.

1000% agree.
I suspect there is a limit to how much complexity you can get with 4 year old juice. But the flavors are really nice, and it drinks very smooth for the proof level. Hopefully New Riff will get to the point soon where they start bottling a few older barrels. I wonder if they have something planned for their 10th anniversary next year?I was disappointed when we picked it

They let us try a 9 year they had out. When they get there, New Riff will be a real player!
So did they comment at all on what their plans are for the older barrels?
