2015 Summer Bourbon/Scotch/whiskey thread

May I suggest that it be your first bourbon of the night. I find that when I am tasting several bourbons the true taste does not come out. Please let me know your thoughts afterwards.

Will do! I'm not the bourbon connoisseur that some of you on this board appear to be, but I have been known to get a little buzz going from time-to-time when consuming certain liquid libations. As a matter of fact, when sipping a few, I can occasionally be found acting like a certain kind of barnyard fowl sometime seen lurking around a certain Ragin Cajun Tailgating area!!!!!!!!!!

Craig I didn't have any but Hammer cracked it open last night. He said he enjoyed it thoroughly! It was a little warm and muggy last night, I had to crush lots of gin and tonic!

It was sublime. Paired well with the Monte Cristo and the fireworks display.

My drink for the night, Colonel E.H Taylor Barrel Proof. Had to post because bourbon is still better than beer and someone posted in the beer thread.

Uncut and unfiltered at 63.6% alcohol I wonder how old it is.

It is not showing an age or date bottled, but I found this on a website.
"Age: 7 – 8 years old
Distillery: Old Pot Still Distillery at Buffalo Trace
Master Distiller: Harlen Wheatley"

Very smooth with a nice pepper finish.

My boss brought me a sample of this little baby in today. Pappy Van Winkle 15 year old.

Because someone posted in the beer thread. Has anyone tasted this bourbon? I had it Thursday evening and I was not overly impressed. It had Scotch finish in my opinion, just curious if anyone else thought the same thing.
