Any Bourbon drinkers out there?
I've heard some good things about Buffalo Trace Bourbon.
http://www.buffalotrace.com/ Can't get it up here north of the border but, through a wine distributer I am able to order a case. Would like to hear from someone who knows their stuff and has tried it before I order. Thanks |

Frys Grocery is doing a bourbon heritage month and sporadically through the month adding different offerings. They had the entire 1792 line today but only the Full Proof was a single barrel pick. Was only $39 so picked one up. Was lucky to find it this morning!

Just for educational purposes.
Having an infinity bottle, if you didn’t know the term. It’s taking an empty bottle or decanter and adding a single pour from good bottles of bourbon/whiskey (my 1792 above qualifies). I prefer to add the pour to my infinity bottle when I crack the bottle but some prefer it to be the last pour. Over time you have a bottle that is blending many various bourbons/whiskeys and can become quite good and different. Give it a shot. |

I keep an infinity bottle for bourbon but don't really ever use it for anything but cocktails.

Guys the key to avoiding hangovers is orange juice before bed. Has worked great for me.

32oz of OJ at 4 AM (Pineapple OJ even better)
Another bottle, or Powerade, from 6am to 9.

For a starter to the Bourbon world, what would be a good few smoother ones to try?
I find bourbon a little tougher to drink than Scotch or Whiskey

I screwed up early on by adding some cheap, crappy rye to it and after that, no matter what I put in it, it still tasted like that cheap rye. Which, coincidentally, was great for cocktails.

I can get you some OTWP.
Best way is to get to know people and get on a certain list. |
