Blades & Bourbon

Headed out to the Woodinville distillery this weekend for a tasting. I ended up coming home with a bottle of their Cask Strength Rye as I usually do, but I tasted some nice bourbons as well. They've finally been around long enough to get some aged whiskeys out there which is nice. I'm actually kicking myself for not grabbing a bottle of the Cask Bourbon as well. I think this is a highly underrated brand, but the problem is the Cask Strength stuff is mostly limited to purchase at the distillery itself, and the the flavor intensity between that and the regular is night and day IMO. Either way, I'm glad to be able to have them just a short drive away

Bardstown bourbons seem to be somewhat underrated. Their Origin with the white label has earned its place as a staple in my liquor cabinet. Very good bourbon at a decent price.

I haven’t had the Bottled in Bond yet but it won’t be long before I give it a try. Thanks for posting.

is that a new bottle, or an older one I haven't seen before?
here's the one I have, dumped in 2020

Was gifted this rarest of samples 10+ years ago. Kept in tucked away in a cabinet for a proper celebration. Today was the day. The MKM Pocket Tango is along for the ride. IYKYK.

142 proof? I bet it was hot, but hopefully very good

Was an absolute flavor bomb! Cinnamon, Oak, Vanilla, Tobacco and more. The heat lingered and coated the pallet nicely, maybe even a bit oily. A+++

Thanks! I changed jobs a year ago, knowing I would take a pay cut. Last month, I earned more than my average month at the previous job. Yesterday was payday! Cheers!

Sometimes it takes, taking a small step back for a larger step later. Later has arrived. Congratulations
