Blade and Bow

First time trying it though I had eyed it for quite awhile......very nice hint of sweetness on the finish.

Pinhook Bourbon N Rye

It's a rye the name comes from a horse or something like that when I did some research? Good but taste a little young and not quite Sazerac good. Will enjoy the bottle but probably not buy again at the $40 price point.

Isn’t that stuff supposedly solera’d with some of the last drops of stitzel Weller juice or am I dreaming that? I grabbed the 22yr a few years ago but never got around to opening it. I liked the regular when I was at the bulleitt experience or whatever they call the diageo thing at stitzel weller

I believe you are correct but from what I understand there is no science to telling how or how much stitzel welller juice influenced this. I have a bottle of blade and bow too but wasn't sure what to expect because of the hype so left it sealed.


By the way Diageo is the JD of whiskey, marketing genius that doesn't give two turds about the people that buy their products

Jefferson’s Reserve, small batch. Darned good bourbon. 95 proof. Carmel notes with a deep oak flavor and smoked cinnamon as a finish. Talk about heaven when you are smoking a Liga Privada T-52

That’s the thing Armagnac has some crazy values out there. Cognac too expensive. I only like sherried speyside stuff for the most part with scotch. Only buy it when there are crazy deals on independently bottled things.
