Maggie’s What are you drinking right now!?

E6E5DD94-1377-4363-A158-04FAE052AE78.jpeg

This is Sinister whiskey, it’s from Foundry distillers somewhere in IA. It’s made from the mashbill of Left Hand Brewing’s milk stout. I chased sips of it with a peanut butter milk stout from Left Hand. It was an excellent excellent dessert
 
Tonight's whiskey was Jameson's.
My son brought it by.

A very mellow whiskey. Light smooth finish. We pulled strait from the bottle.

I have been gravitating to cask strength / barrel proof Bourbon but the 80 proof Irish blend would be a thing to keep around for light drinkers I guess.


I think I'll finish up the nite with some barrel proof Tx instead of pain pills. I trashed my bad back on 5 gallon buckets of 223, 9mm and 45 acp. They were all cleaned and full to the top.

Havent been able to shoot for 3 days now.

Tried the First Fill some time ago and since been looking for another bottle to no avail. On my birthday, last November, (PM me for date and where to send cards, gifts, death threats...) my daughter gave me a bottle! Wasn't opened until our 20th wedding anniversary last month. We were in Daniel Boone National Forest. Red River Gorge area. The fancy bottle of Willet caught my wife's eye and she bought it simply because she wanted the bottle. I was pleasantly surprised to find that it is an excellent bourbon. Behring and Randall for the true aficionados.
 
So while in Kentucky-see most recent post with other bottles and blades-I asked the proprietor of a liquor store in Stanton if he could point out any bourbon that is sold only in Kentucky. Whiskey Row is what I scooped up as a few others were sold out. They had a great selection of liquors for a small place and I asked if he could recommend another fine bourbon from Kentucky. He went in the back and came out with the E.H. Taylor. Said he just got 3 bottles the night before and since we bought 2 bottles, he would sell this one. I am not familiar with E.H. Taylor, but have heard good things about it. The Evan Williams was purchased at home this afternoon and is about to be poured into a glass....

EH Taylor is pretty hard to come by as of lately. It used to be found pretty easily on shelves a few years ago but now it's considered allocated. It's a pretty good pour neat or for a mixer, whatever you're into.
 
Does anyone else get a chuckle or momentary misunderstanding of this thread title in recent activity?

Carhillo (Mexican): 2 shots of Liquor 43 and 2 shots of espresso shaken with ice.
Perfect after a steak and mashed potatoes.
That looks fantastic!

Thought it was wheat beer

Never heard of that before, looks like they have it at Sam's Club, this is going on the list....

Licor 43 - Wikipedia

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Licor_43
A "mini-beer" is a Licor 43 cocktail designed to visually imitate a beer. A miniature pint glass is mostly filled with Licor 43 and topped with a chilled dairy-based liquid, such as heavy cream or Irish Cream. The colour of Licor 43 mimics the amber colour of a pale beer, and the dairy product mimics the white colour of a beer's foamy head.
 
still on water with exactly 3 cubes of ice and a one slice of orange and one lemon such a shame I could not find the mint I picked from the garden but it's fancy enough I guess .
