"There are no finger prints under water."
Well I recently decided to save a few bucks and bought a bottle of the Buffalo Trace y'all have been talking about instead of my usual Maker's Mark.
Overall I'm happy with it. It's a damn sight better than JD (which I despise ... in fact for years I thought I disliked bourbon in general because of it) and its priced well, so since I'm too poor to drink Maker's at the rate I've been drinking lately it'll do.
On a side note I whipped up a bunch of mint infused simple syrup for Mint Juleps (have a couple mint plants growing on the patio) and we picked up an interesting relative to Spearmint called "Sweet Mint" which is as the name implies very much like a blend of Spearmint and Stevia so it's made my Mint Juleps even better. I also find myself snatching a leaf to chew on any time I'm in the back yard.
So Irving, is that Black Canyon sweet like a bourbon or dry like a scotch (I'm guessing its somewhat sweet being corn based)?

Modern liberalism is based on the idea that reality is obligated to conform to one's beliefs because; "I have the right to believe whatever I want".

A World Without Guns <- Great Read!
I couldn't tell you. I don't pay enough attention. However, without ice cubes to cut the edge, my first thought was that it was smoky like a scotch.

Love scotch straight up no ice or water.

Enjoying my Stranahan's SnowFlake I picked up. Smoothest whiskey I've ever had.

Wife knows June 9th is a tough day for me every year, so I came home to this....
I'm a whiskey fan (although a newb), and she knows nothing about whiskey, but she thought I should try something new. Pretty good stuff!
^Mmmmm a well rounded dinner.
I'm on the fence about ice/water in whiskey. It does change the flavors but I like the burn.
Tried some of this last night. No nonsense bourbon that was pretty good. $20 a bottle didn't hurt either.

I'm not going to lie, I'm a wuss when it comes to sipping straight whiskey, so the ice cubes are a must. Shots on the other hand.....Originally Posted by Ah Pook
