Not bourbon, but last night I had some Templeton's 4yr "The Good Stuff" no pics, you know what it looks like.
Today's Bourbon

Florida Whiskey? Let's hear more about that, Mick @irratebass . I've got some ideas, and most are not good. 
I've noticed a difference, but more often than not, for the better. If "oomph" refers to proof, then it's probably not much difference. The addition of O2 causes chemical reactions that naturally happen anyway, you are just speeding them up.
Some anecdotal experiments I've read about suggest the amount of light has more to do with degradation. NEVER store booze in sunlight.
Taylor Tuesday. Hitting all the right buttons tonight and going great with a cinnamon danish.

This isn't overly complex, but at just over 30 a bottle it is very smooth and easy to enjoy.
Ha, one out, one in is supposed to be the rule I made with my wife. So I just hide most of my purchases in the basement.
Excited to get close to killing this bottle. It's been very good, but killing one means I get to replace it.....haha

I just picked up a bottle of that too, different barrel though. Just a taste last night after cracking it since I was off to bed:

Well I'm not sure I meant proof either just I notice a mellowing of sorts. And it's definitely not bad, just different. Bottles stay in the bar so no light, but this bottle has been open for over a year. Just interesting!

I've definitely noticed a difference between a bottle you just opened and the same bottle you taste again in a couple of days.
Quick read.

@Unpossible_1 picked this up on his recent fam Vaca and brought it to HBH, I really enjoyed it, as did a few others. Last day @BradMc says take some bottles home with ya, Doug was kind enough to give me the rest of the bottle.Florida Whiskey? Let's hear more about that, Mick @irratebass .

Congrats to your wife!This one because my wife knocked out another semester of grad school.
And this one because it's still in the 40s and it's flipping May....

Got to try several "new to me" bourbons this past weekend including McKenna 10 year, High West Double Rye and Yipi-Ki-Yay, Angel's Envy and more. I liked the High West DR so much bought a bottle as soon as I got home. The other bottle was gifted to me by a friend, from a distillery local to him.

For sure. It tastes like dessert to me. Almost a dessert type whisky. It really does taste nice in the winter as well. Again, for a change of pace it is great.
Thanks for your thoughts, Paul.

Love the cigar band jars in the background. I intend on buying one of these soon, as I currently store them in Ziplocs.Got to try several "new to me" bourbons this past weekend including McKenna 10 year, High West Double Rye and Yipi-Ki-Yay, Angel's Envy and more.
