Title: Good Bourbons...
Post by: BB3 on January 06, 2010, 06:12:48 PM
Anyone here into drinking high quality bourbons ?

As for me, favorites are as follows......

1.) Woodford Reserve
2.) Knob Creek
3.) Makers Mark

In that order, thank you very much. ;D-----BILL

Try Basil Haydens some time.  It is a very old whiskey.  When the show Deadwood was on HBO, Basil Haydens was a whiskey they served at Swearigens bar/hotel.

2nd the motion on Woodford Reserve.

We should implement a featured top shelf Bourbon into the "meetings" Wink Wink Nudge Nudge.

Points taken REV and BMW. Thank you for the recomendations.

There is one Special Edition Woodford Reserve that I'm after.
 From what I've read, it was matured in the casks from an award winning Chardonnay from California and I guess it has alot of floral accents on top of the already great Woodford flavor. :P :-*

Unfortunately I have not been able to track it down. >:(-----Bill(BB3)

It was actually pretty damn good. :o------BILL(BB3)

Your right Bill, I don't.
