A whiskey group I’m in did a MM pick and I picked up my bottle today. The name is 100% accurate and the finish is long.XL BGE

Based on a suggestion from @pgprescott and recognizing a totally not necessary response to the Ridge wallet sent to @Ozzie_Isaac (the glass and a set of four whiskey stones):
@pgprescott called it as he thought I would enjoy as I like the BBC Fusion series (#7 for the win so far).
Thanks to you both. Very helpful members here!
Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. # 38 for the win. Life is too short for light/lite beer! Seems I'm livin in a transitional period. -

It does have a noticeable hole but only on one side so I have challenged myself to take advantage of that design flaw.Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. # 38 for the win. Life is too short for light/lite beer! Seems I'm livin in a transitional period.

Prepping for my meeting tonight. My bourbon group hosts a fundraiser for local veterans. $50 ticket gets you 3 pours, door prize entry and a paddle for the live auction. Last year we raised over $15,000 (with only 56 guests)
this year we are having to bundle auction packages due to lack of availability of our personal unicorns. The foundation solely relies on the 6 of us to contribute for the live auction. I’ll post the proposed auction items in a bit for your thoughts. -
Here we go:
1) 3 Buffalo Trace store picks along with 3 Eagle Rare store picks
2) 6 year old purple top Willet Bourbon
3) George T Stagg
4) Mid Winter Night’s Dram
5) Old Carter Batch 2-LA
6) Elmer T Lee and a Blanton’s store pick
7) Elijah Craig 18, Toasted Barrel, and Barrel Proof store pick
8) Weller Antique, Weller Full Proof and a Weller 12
9) 4 Roses 2022 Small Batch Release Barrel Strength
10) EH Taylor Small Batch and EHT Barrel Proof
also contemplating adding a Hirsch Cask Strength to the fold -
That is a great lineup of bottles and worthy of the cause. Good luck at the auction.XL BGE

Great endeavor right there and impressive auction offerings, as well. You travel in a very generous circle as measured by your donation.

Mrs.C gave me a new glass and bottle for my sixty first trip around the sun. Dang I love that womanFort Wayne Indiana

The beginning stages of Bourbon Bash……successful meeting last night. Everything there provided by the 6 of us. Some bar pours, rest for the auction.
-
As I said yesterday, you and your friends are doing some great work right there. Hope the auction generates way more than anticipated.
Yes, some sweet offerings you guys served up.Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. # 38 for the win. Life is too short for light/lite beer! Seems I'm livin in a transitional period. -
Was wondering if anyone could give me advice on a good bottle to purchase. Wife bought me a decanter set and I’d like to put something nicer than jack Daniel’s in it.My normal drink is jack Daniel’s with a splash of water. Not a big fan of Canadian whiskey and I’ve had some scotch’s that I like but for the most part I just drink bourbon.I figure a good budget is in the 100 dollar range (definitely open to lower if it’s good!)

A bottle I find overlooked a lot is Brother Bond.Maybe your purpose in life is only to serve as an example for others? - LPL

Sub $100, I’d look for Eagle Rare, 4 roses single barrel, Buffalo Trace, Idle Hands, or New Riff Single Barrel
-
Also consider Knob Creek single barrel’s and 12yr offerings. Elijah Craig is great value. Russell’s reserve single barrel, Kentucky Spirit or Russell’s 10yr are all phenomenal. Old Forester 1910 and 1920 are readily available and great. Heaven Hill bottled in bond. EH Taylor if you can find it. Early Times bottled in bond. The 1792 lineup is solid top to bottom.These are in addition to the ones mentioned by the others.Decisions Decisions Decisions 🥃😁

if you normally drink jack, i would just fill it with some bulleit rye for a change of pace.
fukahwee maineyou can lead a fish to water but you can not make him drink it -
Any above plus 4 Roses Small Batch Select. However, since you are gonna drink it, if Jack is the beverage of choice then why not load it up with that?Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. # 38 for the win. Life is too short for light/lite beer! Seems I'm livin in a transitional period.

Surprised no one mention Jack Daniels Single Barrel Select.Large and Small BGECentral, IL

saluki2007 said:Surprised no one mention Jack Daniels Single Barrel Select.I tried some of that Taylor a year ago (a sipping shot) and I did not enjoy it. Way too high in alcohol. Damn near like everclear to me. Very interested in all the other suggestions, I really appreciate it. I know a lot of people with buffalo trace, I’ll give that a taste as well. The others I can’t say I’ve heard of besides four roses (never tried though).

Grab another whiskey from Tennessee. Belle Meade has several good offerings, they're higher in rye than JD, so they will be a nice change up.Not a felon
