Jack Daniels Tasters' Selection High Angel's Share Review

[hog88]

Already got mine. Sister is a big dog at JD.

She wouldn't happen to be redheaded would she?

 

[Hunerwadel]

Yeah me too. You ever notice the black stuff on trees and buildings around there? I have a buddy that’s contracted thru JD that washes the black fungus off some of the buildings there. Unfortunately for distillery towns that black stuff is on almost everything.

I have not noticed it. Like I said I don't get there often. But if I'm passing through and have time I try to stop by. I'll try to be more observant next time I get down that way. I'm curious, being a fungus is it worse during the summer? What contributes to its growth. Possibly the sugars or something in the vapors?

Anybody else a TN Squire? Been one for decades, and from time to time I get letters from Jack Daniels telling me about my deeded property there, and who's been trespassing and such. They used to send me calendars... have not heard much from them lately. Jack on the rocks, saweeeet!

Yep, been a squire for years. I try to get by and see Goose and the guys every chance I get, yesterday was Goose's birthday by the way. Give the squire house a call make sure they have your current information, 931-759-6185.

I've been told what causes it but I can't remember. It occurs around distillation. Revenuers used to look for it when hunting for moonshiners.

Have any of you memphis folks tried Doc 52? Curious who they’re buying their whiskey from

Never heard of it. Of course, I am out here failing by living the Blanton’s life.

Sad!

Doc.52 is liquor store's attempt to stand out in crowd with own brand of bourbon

 

[95 Vol Alum]

I’ve been invited to their December events but declined. Something about camping out in December just turns me off.

Busters is where I go to find the harder to find stuff including Blantons. Will have to check Doc’s expanded footprint which is a closer trip for me. My local liquor store does a similar event, but their selection isn’t very rare stuff.

Meh. I love bourbon but there’s no way in hell im going to those kind of lengths. I have read it’s good though

Midwinters night dram from High West. I haven’t seen any in a while but came across some tonight. Very enjoyable

Anyone seen The Legend of Buster Scruggs? This scene made me think of Yippee Ki-Yay whiskey from High West.

It does seem to be hard to locate. Their Rendezvous Rye is a good one.

 

[Vol737]

Anyone had the latest iteration of Willett Rye?

 

[InVOLuntary]

Not much of a scotch drinker. Is this stuff any good?

It's popular and not peaty. If you aren't much of a Scotch drinker, it's a good place to start.

One of the more approachable drams for a newbie. Versatile in its meat pairing if that's your jam.

Thanks. I was hoping you'd chime in. I got it as a gift.

Drop a shot of it into that Corona for a hell of a boilermaker.

I can already taste it coming back up.

 

[volfannbama]

Pick up two bottles of pappy yesterday (10/12 year). So excited I don't know what to do with them. Ive already sold the 12 year to cover most of the insane price I paid.

 

[DinkinFlicka]

Just stocked up on all the Japanese Whiskey I can fit in the home bar. Gonna sit on them for a few years and sell/trade up.

 

[golfballs]

The Japanese were ahead of the curve on whisky w/o age statements.
