Going to have a Maker’s Mark Ten Stave Bourbon while we play Nintendo Switch Golf.

That little device looks much easier to swing than my 3 iron. I can only imagine trying to play golf with bourbon in me. That'd be a surefire way to get the entire sport banned by executive order...

Edit: I was so wrapped up in imagining myself going into a Sergio Garcia-esque tantrum on the golf course that I forgot all about what I was actually drinking...

Grifone Sangiovese red wine from Trader Joe's

Dipping my toe into Irish Single Pot Still at the minute with this buttery smooth Red Breast Lustau Edition. Its like a Danish pastry in a glass.

What’s up, gang?! It’s been a minute. I have a few projects going on that have kept me busy and away from the forum for a bit.

I‘ve been exploring a few craft distilleries that have been creating a buzz lately, and have found a small outfit in Bourbon, Missouri, that’s doing amazing things. Old Road Craft Spirits is a membership only, husband and wife operation, whose product line is Barrel King. Everything I have purchased from them has been a home run. I’ve been drinking on a couple bottles from a recent delivery this weekend. One is a bourbon that‘s the one year anniversary release titled The Beta.




The other is a rye titled Fruity Pebbles. I swear the nose is like you put your face in a box of Fruity Pebbles and inhaled deeply. Nose translates exactly to the palate and finishes with spicy tobacco.





This is some seriously good finished craft whisky. Check them out if you’re looking for something that’s different in the best possible way.

Cheers!

Amen brother.... Good thing I don't drink too much of it.

In England, it was a bar gin. I enjoyed my time there.

Having a good time hanging out. We’re celebrating Terry starting a new gig. John and I decided to switch to something a bit more special with George T. Stagg 2014, Kentucky Straight Bourbon, 138.1 proof.

It’s my Friday and I’m sticking my face in a bottle of absinthe tonight.

 

[CoffeeAndBourbon]

Just finished my last bottle of Elijah Craig Barrel Proof A123. Guess I need to start looking for another ECBP. We have a few smaller country ABC stores that have them on the shelf usually.
