Exactly ! Hell , Id have a decent place built in 10 days , figured where the fish and game were and devised offensive and defensive measures . Why leave at that point .... other than for woman company

I correctly predicted I might need to add an extra kick to my afternoon coffee today so I came out prepared with a flask of Makers Mark. I ain't working and I ain't driving so why not :D

Lately , Ive been bouncing back and forth between my " trinity " of cheap bourbons . Im talking big handle bottles you can get for 20 to 25 bucks .

Henry McKenna 80 , Very Old Barton 90 and Virgin bourbon 101 .... then it dawns on me why I cant settle on one . Maybe subconsciously Ill be in the mood for a 80 , 90 or 101 proof [ ? ] ....
of the many Very Old Bartons , I think the 90 is the one ! I was confused with it when I was trying that brand out for a while because I didnt realize the different proofs . Turns out Ive had them all over time ... I believe theres an 80 , 86 , 90 and 100 . My buddy Simon and I both agree that the 90 is the best so it must be true

OGD 114 is still the greatest for me . I had some a few nights ago .... my goodness that stuff is wonderful . I really think the other 2 OGD are wanting to be the 114 . The flavor of what the others are after is realized in the 114 . Its still between 32 and 35 for a regular size bottle here locally

I like the variety of buying different brands, although this is my 3rd bottle in a row of Four Roses

Bourbon: My go-to is Larceny. On the rare occasion I can afford it, I'm a Booker's fan.
