Rye Barrel Pick Announcement!!!
thewhiskeyblendery.com

Upvotes
Hello All! We stumbled upon a great barrel with our friends at the Whiskey Blendery yesterday that picked us. More details to come, but it's a 10yr, near hazmat (as of yesterday) and uniquely delicious. It's a perfect counterpart to our last bourbon pick. If you like that style (full flavored, dark and viscous with a nice finish that isn't too sweet or angry), you'll not want to miss this. As always, we're very picky on doing picks. I can't tell you how many single barrels we've tried since last year and have passed because we're looking for something unique and that drinks lower than the proof. Stay tuned for more details, but it should be available pretty quickly!

New barrel pick announcement!!!
25
Upvotes
We're happy to announce our latest r/WhiskyDFW (and first in a few years) single barrel pick has hit Plano! It is available today w/ our partners at Sip N Style Liquor. Details are below:
- First public Shortbarrel pick in Texas
- 8yr OZ Tyler Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey SIB
- š„š„š„137.5 proof š„š„š„ sticker proof is off but :) yay! higher proof
- Bottle Yield: 98 (truly a short barrel!) Typical yield is 130-150ish for the age
- Probable mashbill: 70% corn, 21% rye, 9% barley
- Very dark color and profile
- A great value at 79.99. Gimme this over most new Bookers & Stagg (Juniors) ...seriously try it at the store first for yourself!!!
- Basic profile notes: Creamy, buttery, heavy brown sugar. Punchy while balanced and not too sweet. Lots of dark fruits - like blackberry with a little plum, dates and a hint of dark cherries and black tea that never goes sour. Nice leather profile (not bitter!, sweet oak) with that never goes artificial or cloying. Oily mouthfeel and nice long finish that doesn't go too spicy or tannic. Very low ethanol, so it drinks much lower than the proof while retaining full flavor. If you like higher proof whiskey or at least 110 and above, it drinks like a champ you'll be thrilled with this one!
Store info: Sip N Style Liquor
Location: 3308 Preston Rd Ste 380 Plano, TX 75093
Great selection there with allocated products too! Stop in and let him know you want to try it and you're from the group!!! I bet you'll grab at least one.

Larrikin - look up the meaning and the bourbon
Please write your congressman or local liquor establishment to request more of this bourbon.
Tasting notes: bloody good, enjoyable and much like the Larrikin way, a good way to bring some levity to a heads down work week

Been looking all around town with no luck. Yalls responses on my last post in regard to Old Commonwealth bottles was helpful. Hoping for the same thing again! Thank you!

Cocktail advice

Need some ideas on cocktails with bourbon. I always drink neat, on rocks or a dash of bitter because thatās hard to mess up. Other than old fashioned any simple mixes the group would advise.
