canadianbeaver Posted March 4, 2017 Posted March 4, 2017 A recent California trip with mrbeaver allowed me to dive into the bourbon pond. I have a wonderful collection growing and I am such a fan. Tonight we cracked open a tall small bottle of 375ml of Buffalo Trace Single Oak Project. 192 Bottles total. Just tastes like pure dark alcohol? No grain/corn/flavour tones? Added a few drops of water to try and open it up a bit... ahhh there we go. Now some smoother layers including coffee and wine. Sharp! Wonderful. 3
JohnS Posted March 4, 2017 Posted March 4, 2017 Sounds like the perfect beverage to compliment unwinding at the end of the work week! Funnily enough, in my part of the world, I find Scotch enthusiasts don't go for bourbon. For me, I'll take bourbon (or cognac) anyday. 2
shlomo Posted March 4, 2017 Posted March 4, 2017 Coffee and wine in a bourbon? I will be avoiding big time! Thanks for he heads up.
canadianbeaver Posted March 4, 2017 Author Posted March 4, 2017 We like Scotch but this year I have become very passionate about Irish whiskey after last summer's trip to Ireland. This section of the wall is coming along nicely too.
JohnnyC Posted March 5, 2017 Posted March 5, 2017 C.B. I know you posted a little while back how you were enjoying Yellow. Spot Irish Whisky. I just noticed it on the LCBO website. I know it does not come to Ontario very often so I thought I would let you know.

Hamaki Posted March 16, 2017 Posted March 16, 2017 How did you get the single Barrel project? I was at buffalo trace recently and they have a display cabinet full of their different experiments. I picked up the redbreast 12 recently and really liked it. Looking for the 15 next, I'll give yellow spot a try too. 1
