        Riffing on an idea here. Sort of a between the sheets meets a vieux carre. Added half a bar spoon of galliano for a bit of the anise flavor that's usually added in these new Orleans drinks in the form of absinthe. Overall not bad, but it needs tweaking and different bottles but with all of the OFTD talk I couldnt resist.

            Sometimes it's just too damn cold to even think about making a cocktail.

              @Mizmazzle Four Roses Single Barrels are really great. What did you think. Readily available and pretty reasonable.

                @Jett129 quite fine indeed. Smooth yet hot. Touch of ice and it all blends quite nicely. Four roses never disappoints.

                            @scooter I would love to try that. So cool that they give you all the different mash bills.

                                It certainly is cool. Bardstown Bourbon is known to be one of the more transparent producers. They're quite good at blending, and distilling, as well. The only thing unfortunate, due to nondisclosure agreements, they can't provide the names of the original distillers of the 13 and 10 year distillates of the blend. There's quite a debate about the 13 year. Two distillers (Beam and Turkey) employ that mash bill as their primary. Arguments on both sides a solid. So, there is no way to know for sure. The 10 year is a mystery, too. No distiller has ever laid claim to it. But, there is a good enough amount of evidence to believe it's Beam...

                                Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind.

                                  It's fantastic. Very complex, and well balanced. The finish is excellent. In the top 5 of all bourbons I've ever tried...

                                      Niiice, had a bottle, enjoyed it mostly making revolvers and boulevardiers. Fantastic in those. I’m just not a straight whiskey or bourbon guy.
