Flashlight Enthusiast
I like to have an occassional sip of a nice Kentucky Bourbon. On the good side, the taste of a well made bourbon is hard to beat. On the downside, even a good bottle lasts a long time in my house, so if I buy a mediocre one, I seem to have it forever.
I would like to get other people's opinion on their favorite (and no so favorite) bourbons and post a few notes about my experiences. Obviously, this is going to be as subjective as "what is the perfect flashlight beam", but that is ok.
My father usually drank beer, but had some ancient age around. To me, it is a bit harsh.
I drank wild turkey for a long time, but last year moved to makers mark. The game that makers mark played with threatening to change its formula (which I am sure will just end up in a price increase) sort of ticked me off, so when my bottle went dry, I decided to look around again.
Tonight I opened a bottle of knob hill, which supposedly has been aged 9 years. I am not sure where it was stored, but it is pretty harsh for 9 years. To me, it is similar to ancient age with a different label.
What is your experience with Bourbon ?
Please just post about taste, not your entire experience.
Take care,
Harry
