Cherry soda for sure

I always keep the entire whiskey row series on hand just for blind flights with other similar bottles. They always do fine.
Lives up to the hype. Cheers

A touch spicier than others and it drinks a bit hot for the proof, but there’s no denying it’s pretty much classic EC profile. I’ll buy another if I see one.
Any one in the St. Louis, MO area that could help me out with reshipping? Drop me a line if you could. Much appreciated!

1897 is great, but when I have 1910 and 1920 on hand, I almost always end up reaching for one of those over the 1897. Unfortunately in PA 1910 and 1920 are often unavailable, so the 1897 is there when I want old forester.
Agree. Tried 1897, but stuck with 1910 and 1920

I almost snorted my bourbon out of my nose...
Shelf bourbons? Pappy? LOL!
I actually made the best old fashioned I've ever had a couple of nights ago. When traveling a few months ago, I bought an Elijah Craig barrel strength store pick. It's good, but not quite up to the level of the regular ECBPs. I figured, why not put it in an OF? Yeah, great idea.
I had multiple ECBP old fashioneds at my company Christmas dinner out at a fancy seafood spot. They were delicious.
My old fashioned shortlist:
Options I’ve been meaning to test out….
- Alberta premium rye cask strength
- Bulleit 10 or barrel strength
- Jack Daniel’s bonded rye
- KC 120 proof store picks
- Makers 101
- Woodford
Options I’ve been meaning to test out….
- Barrell sea grass
- Blackened rye the lightning
- An ECBP I don’t love, maybe B523 or B522
- Stellum Rye
- WT rare breed (bourbon and rye)

I don't think I could ever bring myself to put Barrel Seagrass in an OF. It's just too damn good a sipper. I nurse that bottle.
I didn't love Alberta Premium as a sipper, so I made a lot of OFs and Manhattans with that one. Yum!
For the most part, if it's over $60 a bottle, I probably wouldn't make cocktails with it very often unless like AP I didn't just love it as a sipper. But I'll try anything once! WT101 and OF100 are my house bottles of bourbon and rye for cocktails. I also recently picked up Old Overholt BiB to try in cocktails. But I hear it might be good enough to sip too. Haven't opened it yet.

Was down in San Diego over the weekend and found myself here... pretty neat place prices for some were kinda wild but a cool place non the less.... whiskey list is 90 pages long. 4500+ bottles from around the world.

My favorite OF bourbons are OGD 114, OF 100, WT 101 and MM Cask Strength.

I use ryes for Manhattans.
Alberta Premium is a rye, isn't it? I mean, if you don't use rye, then technically can you even call it a Manhattan?
Well, you have an Alberta coming in early June on me…
It’s 100% rye.
