CPK and Whisky (or other vices), a pictorial

EMCEE EMCEE I hope you and the missus are having an epic time. Thanks for sharing your adventures with us.



This stuff is really good. I got two bottles of it so I felt ok with the dent I put into the one pictured this last weekend. How is their consistency from batch to batch? The two bottles I have are from the same batch so I can't test that out myself currently.

What I've had of the 4-grain, it's pretty consistent. IIRC, they've sourced the corn and barley from the same farms even, since they started making that one. I think they've been making that one for ~10 years now, and the most recent bottle I've sampled still reminds me of the first one I tried ~6 or 7 years ago. I haven't had enough of the bonded version to make the same claim for that one, but I can't imagine it would be much different. Same whiskey, aged a bit longer.

I hate how much the price has increased since I started drinking it though. It was in the 30's back then, and has nearly doubled now. Their Bonded Centennial wheated is on my short list to try soon, but it's ~$80, which is a bit up there.

ETA - I almost forgot! I had the opportunity to try their malted out of a sampler pack at a Christmas party. Excellent!!! It's surely not a Scotch, but there were nuances of a Highland present. I don't know what a 750ml costs, but I'm keeping my eyes open...

Trump is fearlessly kickin’ ass ! I toast a glass of 12 year Pendleton bourbon to the future of North Carolina hurricane victims, California wild fire victims, and the world ! God bless the USA ! Bureaucrats , politicians, and foreign powers, GTF out of our way of taking care of our own.

Cheers CPK brothers and sisters !

Seems lovely, D. How is it ? Also, your pic shows how pleasant our NW weather has been lately. Snow expected soon.

It's pretty great - it is cask strength so it runs a little hot. A few drops of water sets it right though.

And yes! This weather has been incredible! I hope I don't miss the snow - I have to go down to the LA area for a work conference next week. I'm not too excited about that but such is life, as they say.
