Having a cheat day. First beer in 6 months. Dinner is Korean BBQ. beverages are Stella and vodka. I bought some soju but held off on opening it. So vodka.
Finally sat down with a pour of Woodford Reserve last night, neat. Interestingly, I got a bit of a cherry cough drop note that I wasn't a huge fan of. Hope it was just something I ate, as I've always been a fan of WR.
Today I’m making Dark-n-Stormies for the fam. The perfect summer drink.
It could be. When I first started with Woodford, I was very inexperienced and didn't have any in depth tasting discussions with folks. I take it as a positive that my palette is growing. It has been pretty prominent the last couple of pours. I bet it'd be great in a Manhattan though.I always thought Woodford was famous for that cherry flavor. Like your last experience, it's never quite stricken me well-- not so much that it's there but that it's so prominent.
If it's any consolation, I missed it as well. But, there's always today.Guess I missed National Bourbon Day…
I'm pretty sure every day is NBD.Guess I missed National Bourbon Day…
