Tested the Colorado Tin Cup whiskey.
Real smooth.

Yea or nay it looks interesting. Think I will try some.

Well in my continuing adventure trying to find a "good-as-Maker's-but-less-expensive" bourbon, I think I may have stumbled across one that I like better than Maker's (insert gasps of "tarnation!" here).

Its John E Fitzgerald's Larceny.



Its very dry yet buttery with hints of honey (much like Maker's) but with an almost dark chocolate finish. If I can find this in 1.75l bottles I may have found a replacement for my beloved Maker's Mark (don't y'all look at me like that). Also those extra 2 proof are clearly there (at least on the palate). Not sure if this one was mentioned before (didn't feel like going through all 30 pages) but if someone suggested this one and I'm only now trying it well I should have listened. Price is about the same as the Buffalo Trace ($23.99 at the liquor store I went to ... imagine I could find a better deal if I shopped around).

^ Sounds interesting. Gotta find some.

Tried Tin Cup and didn't do anything for me. Same person that did Stranahan's (Jess Graber).

Summer tastes move to gin. Got the soda siphon double charged. Rum and tequila are a close second.

Priced like Buffalo Trace and tastes good as well? I'm down to try this next.

Enjoying some Pappy Van Winkle 20yr... Good stuff. May bite the bullet on some 23 yr.

Haven't tried any Pappy yet. Haven't seen any either. Interesting history though.
