Just a bottle of water for me today unfortunately. I have cut my consumption of adult beverages to the minimum. Long story. Oh I still have a taste occasionally. But very rarely now. Anyway, cheers in spirit! π
Yes, you read that right. They're single barrels, so the ABV ranges between 120-140-proof. I rarely drink whiskey with ice, or a splash, until it exceeds 115 proof. I drink it over a large ice cube. As the ice melts, the flavors evolve & the whiskey sings. Everything is great, the nose, on the palate, the finish. It's one of my favorites.
Worthy of note to anyone reading this, The Single Barrel Barrel-Proof Jack Daniel's is absolutely far and away nothing like regular Jack Daniel's. It's a completely different animal entirely. It's fantastic. If you don't like Jack and therefore have no interest in this, please give it a try you won't be disappointed.
Elton's BBQ, what is the shield with a Blue horizontal bar with 1949 emblazoned acrost it over red and white vertical stripes? It is on the top of the person sitting in front of the dark beer.
