      @pechelman this is the only alternative I’ve tried. Good enough to repeat buy, but I still go back to Campari most of the time.

        Blind tasting consensus was that these two had a lot of surprising differences and the 8yr was the clear winner.

        Finished off with a bottle kill of some 1982 decanter juice.

          @pechelman the Forthave RED is quite good. But I don’t think you can beat the OG.

            Man I used to drink 101 a bit too much. That brings back some memories. And some gaps where memories should be.

                Just recently got this back from a friend I had loaned it to, and thought maybe someone on this thread might like to read it. For the most part it’s really good,at times the author relates what was going on in his own life during the time when he was writing the book,and I found that less interesting and couldn’t wait until Julian Van Winkle came back and was talking about bourbon. I thought that I knew the Pappy backstory,but found out that I knew very little of it. Anyway if you’re interested I’d be happy to send it along and maybe it can go around like the Charlie Watts book.

                          Started this at the UHHH last night and would definitely repeat buy. The Menton lemon and Provençal herbs come through clearly but not too strongly. I could easily see this finding a place in the Endomobile!

                              @goosehd I’ve only tried with tonic so far (lemon and rosemary garnish) but I think it would work very well in a Martini or any lemon-led cocktail (French 75, Bee’s Knees, etc.).

                                It would certainly welcome that. See if I can find any.
