Breaking & Entering

I really liked this bourbon but would not recommend it to most who are used to the prototypical sweetness of America's whiskey. It is nearly impossible to find out if it is "wheated" or a rye style bourbon, but based on the spiciness present I'd guess rye.

It's good, and it is serious. Not kid's stuff.

don't listen to frank, he was not completely correct. a return visit, this time neat first time with a splash, revealed some sweetness up front, complexity followed, long finish...this is a fine bourbon that I found more enjoyable and flavorful than straight up than with a splash.
worked very well with a LFD DL452.

Love bourbon and those 452s, one of the all time tastiest pairings possible, IMHO

Hey Ron, you like bourbon with RyJ C en C? Smoking one of them later, haven't figured the mate yet.

Oh yeah, also pairing with flexoril so, you know, one drink only.

I'd pair the flexoril with a Vicodin, 4 fingers of basil Hayden's, and a tat black lancero. If it were me.

Ya know I usually pair the RyJ with AM coffee.......but if it's late evening yet still the first cigar of the day I go with Balvenie Doublewood.The stone fruit in the Balvenie just sings with the RyJ.

I've not tried this but the Elijah Craig should really shine with the RyJ also.If you don't have any try the Elmer.

Thanks gents, I got it covered. Now, where'd I hide the vicodin?

I missed one.....Although another I've not tried I think the RyJ would pair perfectly with some Weller 12.I think I'll give this one a shot tomorrow evening in celebration of Navy whooping some Army azz for the 12 th consecutive year.


GO NAVY BEAT army.

^ didn't care a whole lot for that one, thought it was ok. I just grabbed some WL Weller they had 107a but I got the 12 instead, hope that wasn't a mistake.

Also grabbed some supplies for apple pie.

Let me know how that weller 107 that's the only one I can get here ( no 12 to be found yet). No dickel here either for some reason.
