I was taking inventory last night and found a half bottle of Old Bardstown Gold tucked out of sight.
I actually like this stuff despite poor reviews so I was sort of tickled to find it!

Dant BIB was one of my steadys back in my younger daze. Save me a taste of that, I'll be back in Indy in a couple of weeks!

I'm having a large Makers Mark on the rocks here at the pool side bar at the Great Wolf Lodge while the kid play. $4.79 for a great pour of MM is super! Forgot how smooth and easy MM is, its great. I think its a bit better than WL Weller SR, but it costs more too. Think I'll get a bottle of MM for certain situations just-in-case.

I am having a sip of Willet Single Barrel Reserve for the first time in quite a while. Superb bourbon with a very clean spicy bite that is very well balanced agin its sweetness. Complex and entirely enjoyable. A sip of an evening is a gift from God.

Started off with Jim Beam Black, then Elmer T. Lee, and then PHC - each one was a definite step up and I ended the evening on the high note!

I started with WT 101, went to OGD BiB from there, and on to Knob Creek SB. Not sure what I''ll go to from there... it's been one of those days... :D
