Bourbon’s shot at the big time (via).
Recently I’ve been enjoying a bottle of Elmer T. Lee single barrel out of Frankfort, KY. I’ve long been more partial to bourbon than other kinds of whiskey. Though I won’t turn my nose up at a fine Irish whiskey like Bushmill’s.
I almost wish they hadn’t written this. Now everyone’s going to jack up the prices because bourbon is “in.” Oh, to be “out” — so much cheaper! Bourbon is just about all I drink anymore. Never have developed a taste for Scotch or Irish whiskeys.
If you ever happen to find a bottle of Weller 19 yo, you MUST try it. I’ve only found one bottle (actually my brother in law found it in PA) and it was truly amazing. The bottle, itself, is very cool, too.
But Pappy Van Winkle 20 yo is probably my all time favorite. I tried the 23 yo but, for me, the extra 3 years aren’t worth the extra money.
