What did you think of the Pinhook? I've always seen it but can't remember if I tried it.

My wife finally was able to land a 1792 Sweet Wheat to complete her 1792 collection. So naturally we busted them all out to do a side by side tasting with the dinner that I made this weekend.

The Sweet Wheat was my favorite.

I’ll be honest with ya my buddy and I both thought it was better than the Eagle Rare which I see tons of people rave about. I wasn’t all that impressed. Pinhook has so many variations.

Ok this Woodford Double Oaked may have just become my fav bourbon. It’s delicious. This Cask Strength Heavens Door has some bite to it. Def not smooth like the old Forester cask strength I posted earlier.

We have the Woodford Double Oaked and it is pretty good for a decent price. Not as Oakey as I thought it would be. Definitely has more complexity than a standard Woodford.

My wife got lucky today during the Frys bourbon raffle. We got picked to buy George T Stagg at MSRP!

was able to snag one of those myself but can’t bring myself to open it. Have you tried it?

1792 Full Proof is one of my favorites at a reasonable price, around $50 where I am.

I think Eagle Rare is overrated. Decent but not worth the hype.

All I can say is if you get a chance to try EC 18 year, do it. Top 3 of what I’ve had so far. Bookers small batch is really good too. Really like the Bardstown and Blue Run also.

Is everything
A friend of mine recently gave me a bottle of Smoke Wagon Uncut Unfiltered 115 proof Barrel Strength Bourbon. Produced and bottled in Las Vegas. The label had me at "Not for the faint of heart". Excellent, perhaps exceptional. Fabulous addition to the bourbon shelf.

Yum. Had my first bottle of that a couple months ago and it is very good.
