First time trying this bourbon barrel reserve. Enjoying it

 

Bourbon again

 

Its that time on a Sunday were I find myself leaning to the left (leffe..t)

 

I think you had one glass too many

 

Not the greatest

 

Man this hits the spot with some nice homemade ramen.
Killer producer.

 

I am very happy right now

 

Rye...

 

Looking forward to this tonight........

 

Well I have been guilty of that in the past! Not sure of the reference here though. Is it the bourbon mention I made? It's a bourbon barrel reserve version of their 14 yr old single malt.

 

I decided to give this a try..

 

That I is as dark as a moonless night..

 

Ok. So most of us bourbon fans NEVER got to taste the mythical Pappy's.

Honestly...what's the verdict?

Btw..
Of all the loftier whiskey's , this one strikes a chord with me...

 

Ok....I demand a FULL REPORT!!!

 

Pappy is... or should I say was, a heavily wheated bourbon, this means it was sweeter and more mellow. It was produced at the now closed Stitzel - Wellar distillery. I actually have 4 bottles of the last stuff made in that distillery. The Jefferson Select 17.

Now Pappy is made to spec and has been for years. I think the older ones are way to oaked, the younger ones that you can get now are stronger.

For the record, those Jefferson selects I purchased for 60 dollars, and are worth over 5k now. It is amazing, and the best American whisky I have ever had. Jefferson released alot of other whiskies, and even some called select, none of those are from Stitzel Weller.

 

It’s a nice wine! I quite enjoyed it

 

I can't thank you enough for this. Unfortunately, it simply stokes my curiosity which is quickly dampened by "5K"!!
