2015 Summer Bourbon/Scotch/whiskey thread

[MelRock]

Tonight's celebration, first with the 2016 Van Winkle 12 year old lot B special reserve, 90.4 proof and is also a wheated bourbon.
The second drink will be the 2015 selection of the 18 year old Thomas H. Handy Sazerac Rye Whiskey and comes in at a stout 126.9 proof.

I understand your pain. Last year I kept checking Spec's website. When they finally had some I drove over to Houston and bought a case. Next time I get some I will hit you up.

The store I go to got a case of antique by accident so I ended up with some of that

A little Willets tonight and some Bullet. Tomorrow I'm getting a bottle of Angels Envy port aged. Really excited about that

Enjoy, all great choices. My suggestion would be to try the Angels Envy port aged as your fist drink, do not ruin the pallet and you will enjoy the nuances of the port aged.

you were right. The Angels Envy is tasty

have some Clyde Mays really nice stuff

I'm not a bourbon connoisseur like many of you, but I'll be happy to provide this bit of advice.

Try taking a shot of Old Crow, then anything else you have after that will taste really wonderful!!!

HaHaHa!

Thanks it is on my list to get. I received an email this past week and it was one of the top 10 bourbons under $50. I will give my opinion, for what that is worth, on the list when I return home later in the week.

I grew up around old crow, my grandfather worked for a distributor so I had loads of stuff, and it really isn't as bad as some people would think

Ive had the whiskey and the bourbon whiskey both are really nice. I saw the weller antique on the list, really hard to find
