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

Those spoons for water are like a half teaspoon to bring the alcohol down in a Glencairn glass. I would think your clear ice is melting that much.
Next time I'm there, I should totally monitor surface area of the ice cube over time while maybe asking for chilled tongs as to not disrupt the speed at which the cube is melting with my warm hands, then calculate the melt over time into teaspoons of water...

Maybe you are one of those iced coffee people also? Or refrigerate your bourbon I guess.

I mean, I only drink cold brew coffee...

Yeah, it's not a big deal... a low effort attempt at clear ice that lasts longer and looks a little cooler. I mean, so far my effort has been filling two ice cube molds and putting them in a cooler, then putting the cooler in a chest freezer. I probably won't get to the point of freezing an entire cooler of water, which I'm pretty sure is what a local bar does as I've seen them sawing blocks of ice behind the bar.

Brother in law in Illinois this weekend filled me in on his recovery from heart surgery. Post surgery he cannot tolerate smoke, cant cook over BBQ grill, and bourbon taste is nasty. Being a decent guy, I took the two bottles of Blanton's Bourbon he didnt need anymore home

Be good to your ailing family members even if it means going out of your way to show Christian support.

Notable whiskeys distilled in the area are hitting shelves today in KC: the initial bottling of Ben Holladay (from Weston) and Rieger's Bottled in Bond Bourbon. Haven't tried either yet but I'm pumped about their existence.

This was an expensive, but ****ing fantastic pour... Distillery 291, Colorado Springs.

Thickness is usually more of a beer descriptor, but it's thick for a bourbon.... definitely some heat at first sip, but smoothed out wonderfully and couldn't tell it was barrel proof after it sat for a few minutes.

Retails for $110 and there aren't many bourbons I'm willing to go above ~$60-70 for, but it's very distinctive and IMO totally worth it... hadn't ever tried them, but will be looking for their flagship stuff.
