    Very fond memories of that distillery...

    I'd love to ask for a second of just about everything you have in the collection. Which would inevitably lead to a 2nd mortgage on our house within the midst of a very messy divorce... Pretty sure momma would not see the value as I see it. 😔

    I cracked it open this weekend and had a pour. It was on the spicy side (barrel proof), but I did note the baking spices you suggest. This is one that I would most definitely add ice to (I do prefer not to dilute my whiskey...) I would not call it my favorite, but it is a definitely nice...

    Nice haul today! Tried the triple oak angels envy on a recent trip to Nashville - really enjoyed it. And supposedly the James E Pepper is allocated - but I’ve heard great things so I could not pass on it.

    DAYUMMMM... You're a one man crime wave! No wonder I cannot get any of the HTF BT stuff - it's all at your speakeasy!!!

    I actually was clued into why room temp is where we should drink alcoholic beverages. My wine mentor told me that to hide the "defects" in wine, it is recommended the wine (mainly white wine) be chilled. I have noticed a significant difference between chilled and room temp white wines. So its...

    I have come to appreciate Heaven Hill. I lucked out this year and found a retail bottle (not with the silly markup) of Parkers Heritage. And I really hate that I did - because it is so damn good that I will totally lose it when I drink my last dram of that...

    I think you have to go to the Three Floyds factory at their special event to get the Dark Lord. And I'm told they are also crafting a Dark Lord whiskey. I believe they will actually age the whiskey in the Dark Lord barrels. I'm curious having tried the Dead Guy Ale Whiskey. I have to think...

    I am as well - with only one complaint. They tend to be a bit heavy on the hops. I love the taste of their hops, but sometimes (especially with Zombie Dust) it's only best when it's cold. I've found that when the beer warms up it is a bit bitter. And beer is really made to be drank at room...

    Bourbon full proof barrel buy!

    It’s not the biggest distillery we visited - but absolutely worth the time we spent there. Great people and an amazing place to be!

    Bourbon full proof barrel buy!

    We visited Whiskey Thieves last year while in that area and I took this photo in their warehouse! They produce some damn good hooch! And we loved the taco truck and live entertainment. Great afternoon.

    The latest 3 Floyds Whiskey I’ve found - Well of Whispers. It’s a single pot still, single malt whiskey made with grain grown in Indiana. It is then aged 4 years in new oak barrels. Very smooth for a 100 proof. Very bold Vanilla and Carmel on the front end, followed by a subtle honey and toffee...

    Guns

    O I hate to buy ammo and gave it shipped to me in IL. Best way to do it is for me to have it shipped to friends in WI (I live 20 minutes from the border) As far as selling ammo - the best way I’ve found to do it is to sell it at a gun show. Though vendors will definitely low ball you. But - no...

    A friend of my did that to me recently with a bottle of Eagle Rare! I feel your "pain"... But I am awfully partial to Whistlepig 12 yr... Hope my friend does not suggest a "rematch" 🤣

    Guns

    I've gotten into not only cleaning, but also modifying my guns - and enjoy that as much as shooting. I think it's truly the best way to get to know your gun literally inside and out. A few years ago I got a fantastic deal from Buds Guns on a brand new Baretta ARX100 (Baretta discontinued it...

    I actually had that issue as a "factory defect" from Taurus on my G2C (thank goodness they have a lifetime warranty). Turns out the stronger spring also reduced the number of jams I was having - and as you say - made is shoot much smoother.

    I did a couple of modifications to the gun since my buddy sold it to me…. Love how easy it is to mod! Now can’t wait to get to the range to sight it in!

    Largest assortment Opus X

    That's what it looks like to me too. I checked out their site and it appears they are bundling a few Opus' with other cigar purchases. Not bad pricing, but no selection. I'm not one that likes ANY Opus X because it's an Opus X - so the offers were not really appealing to me. To each his...
