On my 3rd Evan William's single barrell

Let’s run this thread today boys!

Starting a fast today for the next 18-21 days to jump start another weight loss program.

There will be no alcohol in my near future......:deevee:

Drinking before noon are we?

Hey, it's all good. And we all support you.

Rock on dude...

Not yet but was hoping some eastern time zone CPers would jump in.

Let's get this started.

I've heard alot of good things about this

Yeah, their single barrel reserve is on point. Find a barrel pick and it's even better.

Cheers!

This is called Driftwood Lemonade. I had a bourbon friend turn me to this drink a few years ago. The Evan Williams 100 proof is my go-to affordable cocktail mixer. It's fantastic.

For lemon cocktails I don't think anything is better than San Pellegrino. It's great with just regular bourbon, black cherry whiskey or honey whiskey.

2oz bourbon
2oz triple sec
4oz lemonade

Ran into a ECBP C920 bottle today

Finna grab that neck pour after dinner

Let me know what you think.

I've never had the EC barrel proof but I've heard good things.

Its my first owned bottle. I've had pours while out before and highly enjoyed it. Just reading up on it, there seems to be significant batch variations in both proof and flavors.

I pulled the whole "neck pour" lingo off the Net to fit in with the cool crowd. Is that something you've experienced? Bourbon opens up more after there's more head space for O2 in the bottle.

Huge variations I'm told on ECBP which is pretty awesome and let's you hunt your preferred choice.

Neck pour. You smooth mother****er!!!!

Lots of guys talk about letting a bottle sit to expose it to oxygen and have it "open up." It's really not something that actually happens. It's mostly about your palate on the day you drink it. Notice how bourbon changes a ton depending on what you ate before drinking it? It's mostly that.
