Good evening, this is Dr Beardface, you rang? (Unfortunately the real pager has been going off way too much...) I'm at work tonight so I can't go too in depth now, but I'll post the links to the review threads I've done. Jefferson vs. Pappy Jefferson Presidential Select, Pappy Van Winkle 15 year, Pappy Van Winkle 20 year, George T Stagg Bourbon and Bread Pudding Tasting Maker's 46, Jefferson's Reserve, Eagle Rare 10 year, Rock Hill Farms, Blanton's, Russel's 10 year, Black Maple Hill, and Woodford Reserve Christmas Presents Black Maple Hill, Old Smoky Apple Pie Moonshine, Elmer T Lee and Elijah Craig 18 year 4 Roses Single Barrel I'm sure I've talked about others in other threads but those are the highlights. Good luck in your bourbon conquest

AWESOME! This is what im talking about.

I have had rare bread, but didnt think it was a top 5 bourbon.

On the crown in highschool, yes we did drink it (special occasions). Mainly we drank beer or whatever we could get our hands on at the time.

Bookers vs. Blantons- these are fairly close in price I believe. If you were going to buy one, who you got?

---

If you've never had Blanton's, get it...and you can try the Booker's at your favorite watering hole...

If you've had Blanton's before...buy it again, and try Booker's at your favorite watering hole...

Bottom line: once you have both, you'll know which one you like better...most people I know prefer Blanton's.

Also, it seems like Blanton's is much pricier at bars than Booker's (maybe just for the name), so you get more bang for your buck by getting Blanton's at your liquor store and Booker's at the bar...

It's Dr Beardface. I didn't go through four years of bearded medical school to be called mister.

Hope you enjoy the bourbon journey. You may want to try the Black Maple Hill at a bar before buying a whole bottle. I'm a big fan of it, but some people aren't into the corny twang of it.

Well i just grew a beard and have completely coasted thru my undergrad. Do the mystical properties of the beard help advance intellectual thought.... and my bourbon pallet?

Also - what do you mean "corny" taste with black maple hill?

So, have you started drinking Dewars yet?

Remind me in August and November. I'll let you know when they get delivered to the package stores

C'mon, man, your tongue is made of wooden slats

What does this even mean?

So up next is black maple hill, buffalo trace, blantons, and 4 roses. Not in that order.

Per the recommendation of DR! Beardface i will try black maple hill in the bar... if they have it.

I can't spell worth a shite...

When I was in high school we discovered Tiger Tom bourbon. 95 cents for a half pint.
