• Happy Thanksgiving to all of you! I hope that you all have something to be grateful for this year and for many years to come
  • America has reached 250 years, and I am grateful to be here, in the best country in the world. Thank every one of you who helps make this country a better place, those who have gone before and risked it all, and those who've paid the ultimate price to make the United States what we are today.

    Happy Birthday America! Let Freedom Ring for all time!

Blades & Bourbon

Ernie's making whiskey now?
Yeah. And they sell a knife/whiskey combo. The knife handles are made from the barrels used on the batch, and numbered to match the bottle. All limited runs.
It’s the 25th anniversary of the cqc-7 so they have one on preorder right now.

TGIF. Love Makers 46

I'd enjoyed a lot of regular Maker's Mark over the years and then just drifted away from it. It wasn't that I stopped liking it. I just drifted towards other stuff. Trying this French-Oaked variety was a revelation. The flavor or aroma is just a bit brighter in a way that really unlocks it for me.

Same with me. I think a lot of folks start with MM and move on as they try other bourbons.
Once I had the 46 it’s earned a permanent space in my bar

I also really enjoy the Makers Mark Private Selection bottles, where there are various combinations of different staves added for different flavors.

And if I can find the ‘allocated’ bottles in the wood finishing series, I grab those as well.
