I finally sourced the Eagle Rare.
Enjoyable, but I prefer Buffalo Trace as a daily sipper. BT is also easier for me to find. So will go back to that when this is gone.
Last night, leisurely polished off a bottle of Knob Creek Reserve. Less than an ounce. (Fortuitously, I found it's replacement on sale for $30 a couple weeks ago at the supermarket.)
Slowly savored all the caramel, maple, vanilla, raisin, oak notes. I swear this stuff can BE dessert. Delicious.
When it was gone, poured a tiny splash of ER. All I could taste was the bitter wood.
Still trying to figure out what KC means by "Single Barrel" "Small Batch" - which is it? As I understand it, small batches of single barrel is still small batch...
