Cold night here but enjoying a new rye pour and a nice cigar. Life is good tonight.

I don’t typically buy ryes (I don’t need another thing to hunt) but have heard good things about that one. What’s your thoughts on it.

I really liked it. You definitely get some of the flavor and sweetness from the sherry. I also got some of the spice from the rye. It has a great mouthfeel but not a super long finish. I think it drinks right at its 106 proof. I want to get the port finish if I can find one

Saluki2007, it wouldn’t let me DM you. Send me your info and I’ll send you a sample to try.

Tasted Angel's Envy for the first time last night (not readily available in Canada). I LIKE!

Bourbon or rye? The bourbon is good but the rye is truly unique and next level IMO.

Thanks John. I clicked on his his profile link from the message and I got a permission error, likely my error. I'll try following your instructions going forward. He and I are in contact and working out our sample trade.

Had a Russel’s single barrel store pick, Buffalo Trace store pick, Elijah Craig Toasted and Jefferson’s Reserve. Also made a trade for this bad boy……..

That’s a great list and a real heavy hitter with the Handy.

ColbyLang · February 18

Stumbled into the Handy. I had a 2014 Weller 12. Old bottle and label. Guy needed it for part of another trade package. Win win

Coffee. My good friend John Barleycorn turned on me.

Never had that and just don’t drink a lot of beer these days, but that would likely be right up my alley. 🤤

Bottle killed my Henry McKenna 10 tonight with a great cigar tonight. It’s been a difficult couple of weeks at work.

Another great bourbon tonight and contemplating another cigar.

Picked this up while visiting my friend (see the Definition Of Insanity thread) in Arkansas this weekend. Had a few fingers of it while thinking about him, and how he was dealt such a sh!tty hand in life.

Barrel proofs are typically too hot for my palate, so I use one of the big square ice cubes to cut down on the heat. Don’t know that I’ll buy another bottle when this one is killed, but I will spend some time thinking about my friend every time I have a glass.

I’m a fan of this one. I even keep a back up. I am a fan of barrel proof bourbons though which is why I probably don’t care for the small batch version.

Agree with @saluki2007. UCUF is pretty darn tasty.

You gotta cut back on the dope smoking. The small batch is pretty good too. 😁😁😁😁

Just for clarification sample trading is trading 2oz bottles. So if something of yours is open that is better. Don’t want to open something you have been saving for a special occasion.

You pour your offerings into something like this and trade.
