    Jonathon you weren’t lying. I brought my bottle of Elijah Craig to Virginia Beach for vacation. We got here Sunday. It’s now Tuesday and poof. It’s gone. 10:00 AM I’ll be grabbing some more. My favorite so far. I’ve not wanted 12 hours to pass quickly since I was at work last…

      GWG8541 Replenished the Arsenal today. The wife has accused me of ignoring her and that I should seek Redemption. Well, I found it in the bourbon aisle! If you guys have never tried Redemption High Rye Bourbon, give it a try, mellow and smooth. It’s been a favorite of mine for years. They also have a small batch (blue label) but they were out of it today. Also picked up the Evan Williams favorites of mine. Weller is still more rare than hen’s teeth around here. Hope you all have a great 4th. Stay safe and eat well!63021 2.jpg

        I know some of us are trying to shed a bit of weight. I found this today at Walmart of all places. I was craving a sweet tea but didn’t want all the sugar or calories. This is pretty darn good!!!

                kyle I am from Wisconsin, but I’ve lived in Colorado for quite a while. Looking to move back. We are going to the Eagle River/St Germain area for two weeks at the end of September to October 9th. Look forward to going to a supper club or two and having a good Wisconsin style Old Fashioned!

                  Surg Uncle Nearest is very good. The one pictured is 93 proof and they have another that’s 100 proof. I know some other Meatgistics users have had it and haven’t heard of any complaints!

                    Bob Stehlik thats a great resupply. I’ve only had Redemption once. It was at a friend’s. Im not a huge rye fan, but it was good. I love the EGA in the background. Surg Uncle Nearest is a smooth Tennessee sour mash. If you haven’t heard the back story, he taught a young Jack Daniels how to distill whiskey. I have attached a video from their website, which is pretty cool. I knew about the story years ago from taking the tour at Jack Daniels. Its a neat piece of American history. https://vimeo.com/325286687

                          kyle definitely not a Wisconsin thing, but that stash is too good to mix. That is all high quality H2O. Its meant to be straight up or on a rock or two.

                            Surg If your a bourbon or Tennessee sour mash drinker, I think you’ll like Uncle Nearest. If you don’t, just send me the unused portion and I’ll drink it for you.

                                Bob Stehlik Going? I step at a time behind the walker. Have 1.5 weeks left before I make first visit to surgeon. Healing is boring. Getting better each day. Meds: Off of them for 1 day. Darn it, you were reading my mind. It will taste very good with some fellow bourbonites. Just have to keep it slow. Will have a bit of some Weller while reading a book called “Pappyland”. What a great insight into the bourbon industry. Daughter gave it to me for “father’s day”. She was thinking properly.

                                          I use a round ball ice mold. Those large balls actually work and can last for multiple drinks (my wife says that’s because I drink them too fast)

                                          Give a man a fish and he eats for a day
                                          Teach a man to fish and he drinks beer for a lifetime
