Folks,
In keeping with out bourbon buying ways, we selected 9-10 barrels this week.
From Buffalo Trace:
• Old Weller Antique*
• Elmer T Lee*
• Buffalo Trace
• Baby Saz
• Rock Hill Farm
• Eagle Rare
Four Roses:
• Single Barrel*
• Cask Strength, non chill filtered – first group to make the selection for this
Willett:
• 6 year
• 13 year
* tri-site barrel – BourbonDrinker, BourbonEnthusiast and Lock&Key – like last year
Great selection all the way around. Timothy (BarTurtle), Howie (Stoopsie) Reid (CigarNV), DougDog (Doug) Steve (Sailor), and I participated in all of the tastings… The Willetts are something special. These are just great barrels and the 6 year is something remarkable. Blows the doors off the other 6 years that I have had. The other gents will have to give their impressions, but we were all in unison on the Willett selections.
Once the bottles are in, I will let everyone know. This year we will keep it simple. You will just call up Julio’s and order what you want.
For those of you that made it, you know how much fun we had, for those that did not make the Trek… … … at least you get to share in the bounty.
