        glen you are inspiring me to get things cooking here. I might just do a couple simple ones, Kaluha and a Bailey’s. If time permits this month maybe a schnapps or two or three.

          GWG8541 I was in that boat today. Similar issue, but I decided it was better not make a decision. I had a sample or two of all three, I didn’t want them to spoil. Now I am going to have to replace one during my travels this weekend.

            GWG8541 Start off a bit lighter with the Forester and then move to the heavy guns with the single barrel. Both are perfect.

                YooperDog I like those choices. I’ve never had the Deals Gap. I’ve been there, but never had that. Is it worth picking up on my next trip south?

                  zbigjeff well I started light with the JB single barrel at 108. The Old Forester is the 1920 Prohibition at 115. Im sipping as I type this. Its actually pretty smooth for high test. No peppery bite, more of a carmel overtone.

                        GWG8541 it has a smooth honey flavor with just a little bite. Not bad at all, fairly balanced with the flavors. I would pick up another bottle when back in the area. Not overly sweet.

                          GWG8541 Sorry that I had the forester at around 100. My bad. But, sippin’ either one is just pure relaxation. Have some people coming over tomorrow afternoon for a tasting. One will be a Beam. Don’t know what I will pull out of the arsenal for the other 4. But, it really doesn’t matter as long as the group has fun with it.

                              zbigjeff I definitely recommend the Old Forester Prohibition. Its was also surprisingly smooth for the proof. Im not a fan of the high rye content, but especially on the higher proofs. It gives that peppery taste with the heat. I love black pepper in my food, but not my whiskey.

                                    If you haven’t yet, you need to watch Heist on Netflix, one of the topics covered is Pappy Gate from the early 2000’s. Pretty damn interesting how long the bourbon craze has been going on.
