Are you on Facebook, if so you can read some of the reviews their, https://www.facebook.com/LafayetteBourbon?fref=ts. We are in the process of setting up our own website. The reviews are written by myself and my boss. We are hoping to get others to start meeting once a month in Lafayette with a dinner once a year. I have a friend who is a private chef and will create meals that go well with bourbon and the wives/girlfriends will be invited.

Will do, I have gone a little crazy with my bourbon lately. I really love the Balcones Brimstone, but I also realize it will not be for everyone. I poured 2 fingers of it last night and sipped on it for almost two hours. To me it was the long smokey finish that I really enjoyed.

I've been nursing a single bottle of Crown Royal Black all Summer long.

Alright tonight's entry is Chestnut Farms, not to be confused with Rock Hill Farms (which I will open tomorrow), or Calumet Farms. Chestnut Farms is distilled, aged and bottled 90 proof in Louisville, KY. Not as dark or as strong as last nights, but nice smooth finish. Drinks well neat and very enjoyable on the rocks if you prefer your bourbon a little cooler. You are going lose the flavor and finish mixing it with water. A little to expensive to mix in a Manhattan.

You really like bourbon.

Yes I do. This came in the mail today. George T Stagg, JR uncut and unfiltered. At 132.2 proof it is not for the faint of heart.

I will let you know tomorrow. I have a bottle of Elijah Craig barrel proof uncut and unfiltered, the nickname for it is "hazmat". It is the longest I have sipped on two fingers of bourbon ever. That being said, I enjoyed it very much.
