FINALLY got to try some ETL this weekend

New bar/restaurant opened up in town. Specializing in bourbon and the food is cajun/creole.

Really enjoyed the ETL. Still can't find a damn bottle of it here though

Yep get a empty 750ml bottle (or bigger) and put 325ml of each in the bottle...cork it...mix it around some...and wait at least a few days but some say 2 weeks.

Yep just a little shaking...its the chant and dance steps that are most important.

The best part about hosting a bourbon tasting? The candy store effect. All those bottles I had been saving are now open and this kids candy store is open.

1st pour: Barterhouse
2nd pour: Old Fitzgerald BIB (Stitzel Weller juice)
3rd pour: Bourye

Cracked my 12-107 50/50 tonight (2.5 weeks post mix).


Friday will be 2 weeks since my mix, although I did revise mine and made it 60/40 Antique to 12.

meh... they have an average selection but their prices are good. from what ive read every once in a while something good will show up there. a couple weeks ago they had about 10 cases of Bookers 25th. Dunno if its still there as i havent been back.
