Elijah Craig Toasted Barrel tonight. Love me some RRSB. I got the 6 yr rye and the 10 yr now, too. I can't recall if I had the EC toasted barrel. Their barrel proof was just too damn hot for me. Dash of ginger beer and ooooh buddy it sneaks up on ya! |

The toasted barrel is only 94 proof and is a really nice sipper. The barrel proofs are a little hot for me also but that is where a few drops of water or small ice cube come into play.

Had another double pour of that RR 6 yr rye. Damn tasty.
Got myself a "bar cart" and loaded all my booze onto it. Momma was complaining that the booze was taking up all her shelf space.*
*We have a LOT of shelf space. |

Went to the base to get a haircut and stopped in the Exchange to see what they had.
Russell's Reserve 6 Year Rye - Check $38 (cheaper at Walmart, but they were out)
Found a bottle of Russell's Reserve Single Barrel RYE, which I had never seen before or even heard of - Check $69
Not sure how the math worked out... but I paid $104 at the register. Musta been a discount on one of them. |

The Single Barrel Rye is NOT as good as the 6 year rye. That's just my opinion... but the SB is twice as much as the 6 yr, so I will NOT be buying it again.
You've been warned. |

You've been warned. MACS, do you get a lot of variation between bottles of the same single barrel over time or is it usually pretty consistent? |

Oddly the Walmart's here have liquor stores and they're usually pretty well stocked with decent stuff. Sam's Club had Four Roses Single Barrell for $31 the other day, so I grabbed one... everywhere else it was $40+, even Costco. |
