Saw some info yesterday on the new FR 104 poof offering that will be released at the end of the month in KY. They indicated that it will be released in other markets soon and will be offered in six different recipes. |

First time I had ER thought it was pretty good, but as I have broadened my bourbon experience, this is not nearly as good as EW and others .... Jury is still out on Weller. |

Just got back from a long weekend on the Bourbon trail
So needless to say my list would be WAY TOO LONG to list even if I remembered all of them.
But the top 3 from this weekend are as follows
1. George T. Stagg 2018 BTAC
2. Elijah Craig 18yr
3. 4R Brent Elliott selection
Best part of the weekend was getting a tour from Freddie Johnson at Buffalo Trace and him personally giving me an "A" Blanton's topper!
Just FYI if you don't know who he is watch the documentary "Neat" and you surely will afterwards |

Larceny Kentucky Straight Bourbon
Sweetness is odd that it's 92 proof, wan't expecting it to be so sweet and smooth. At 90+ proof bourbon usually has a higher rye content and is spicier. |

I have had the 21 but not the 10. The 21 is good but don't know if it is worth the price difference over the 16. |

Awesome good to know. Tried it on a whim, I usually prefer scotch. JP Wisers Canadian Rye. Expected it to be rot gut, I'm pleasantly surprised. Not like a fine American rye, but at a little over 15 bucks for a bottle not BAD. At 15 bucks I expect something I would use to clean grease with or sterilize a scalpel and forceps in a bad action movie. |
