Tina and Dave were generous and gracious hosts. We had an outstanding time.
Despite all the praise heaped upon JD SS, and of course the Blanton's Silver (*nods to Gary*), my vote went with the GT Stagg '04. This was my absolute favorite Stagg ever. Balanced, extraordinarily rich, a freight-train finish, yet without the heat typical of most Staggs.
And a stunning drive - Dave and Tina live in an extremely picturesque part of the state.
Thanks again, everyone!
