Went to Garfield's yesterday and they had released an OFBS single barrel pick at 134.6 proof. Grabbed it and opened it after dinner. Interested to see how this opens up, it doesn't have that cherry cough syrup note that some of the picks have.

Walked through the liquor section at Mariano's Grocery yesterday. They have a 10 year 7 day Knob Creek single barrel pick, and it was $16 off MSRP.

This one is much less oak forward than a lot of the KC picks I've had. I've been holding onto my older picks like a nun holds on to her chastity, so it's good to have an open bottle on the bar.

How is that. Picked one up

Liked this better than Rowan’s creek. Rowan’s isn’t too bad either. Been drinking woodford double oaked and some random scotch lately. Scotch ok once in a while but I like bourbon better

Maybe the alcohol has affected things. I tried to post stuff but it acted funny. Whatever. Goodnight gentleman

I like it, Jake, it's a bit more subtle than some of their wood finished series. A subtle mocha note makes it even more interesting.

Had some angels envy mixed with Elijah Craig rye also. Angels envy isn’t my thing but if you add some rye it’s serviceable

I liked the makers the best out of all the drinks we had

Looks like a party right there, Jake! Glad you dig the Maker's.

Me and my drinking buddy went pretty hard that night. He also smoked a prime rib on the grill. Great drinks. Some beer and a bottle of wine I’m not sure I fully recovered the next day. Haven’t even had a beer since. Gotta cut loose once in a while lol. Good times

Sounds like Good Times for sure, Jake!

Last few nights

Opened a Jay West pick single barrel Pinhook (high proof). I generally love all of Jay's picks, haven't made up my mind about this one yet. The most "in your face" Pinhook barrel I've ever had, we'll see how it opens up.
