How did I just now find this thread???

Had a long time friend come by to lament my upcoming cross country move. Went through a pour each of John Bowman, New Riff Balboa Rye, and New Riff Single Barrel.

Having Cask Strength Longrow Red 11 Year Peated Campbelltown Single Malt (by Springbank Distillery) matured for nine years in bourbon barrels and followed by two years in Cabernet Franc Barriques. Each year, Longrow releases an 11 Year finished in a different barrel; I try to snag them whenever I can. They're well worth finding; a very tasty Scotch and highly recommended.

Found this while on the hunt for some poitin. White Dog from Buffalo Trace.





They ain't foolin' either... it's some high octane hooch. ?‍?

Having a pour of a most generous birthday gift from two or three years ago from a dear friend, Yamazaki 18 Year Japanese Whisky. Very different than Hibiki 21, but, no less enjoyable.

I didnt know Guinness made coffee. Guinness really is good for you. The pipe tobacco of beers lol.

It has a great base rye thing going and at first sip I really noticed the 59% which I guess I sort of overlooked when I read rum, wine and apricot brandy barrels. It's freaking fantastic and it's not overly sweet but there is a fruit complexity on the finish in a good way. Now that I've had two drams those barrel components interplay in and out with one another. I'm a fan.

I began the evening by squeezing the last pours out of a bottle of Noah’s Mill and a bottle of Elijah Craig Barrel Proof C921. Cheers!



I’m now having New Riff Barrel Proof as my nightcap. Watching the Heels in the ACC Tournament. Cheers!

I am going to have to ask if New Riff is available here. It keeps popping up in a few threads and I'd like to give it a go.
