The funny this about this to me is that the two small cubes will dilute more than a large ball unless you let it sit for a long time (because they melt faster). The whole point of using large cubes or balls is to chill your drink without diluting it.

This is a great beater bourbon. I always have a 1.75L sitting around at all times. Best used for cocktails. I use this and Sazerac Straight Rye interchangeably.

When I use small cubes, they are very small and spherically shaped. For large cubes, I use big balls and cubes. Understand smaller cubes would melt faster due to less volume, but greater overall surface area of larger cubes would speed up melting? I do tend to pour large glasses though, so 1 or 2 small cubes reach a max dilution, while large cubes will keep on diluting. I actually like the added water to a point. Then there are the times I use stones... Time for a drink! |

I just picked up a Redbreast 12 as the Class 6 had it on sale - relly enjoying it so far. Never seen a Redbreast 15, I'd love to find that to try.
I has a glass of Redbreast 27 a few months ago and it was absolutely amazing |

A few years back I went to a conference held at Thunderbird. Tech conference so no money spared. The company putting it on was also a Utah company, so, naturally, they invited high west to the top of the mountain where they held a special tasting of a unique event only batch. Later that evening I found myself in the hospitality sweet rubbing shoulders with the CTO, who gifted me one of the very few bottles of this limited batch. Boy, was it good. I headed home to Arizona and proceeded to place it with pride in my cupboard, for a rainy day. That day came, and so did my rage. My wife hadn’t a clue what it was, and decided it was quite the smooth mix with Diet Coke. On that day, I had very little love. Who am I kidding, I’m still not over it. |

Do you remember what it was called? I have a bottle like that from Journeyman - but it is locked in my safe and my wife doesn't know the combination

Bro-In-law-in-law and I have decided we are taking some sort of cognac to the cabin for NYE. HOPING for a nice bit of snow on the deck to chill it in.
Help a brother alcoholic out here: what should I get? I'd say max $125. We have to finish the bottle in four evenings at 7000', and we live on the coast. My experience lies mostly with Remy Martin. |

My kids don't know Santa likes bourbon better than milk and cookies. Thinking tonight's either a Stagg Jr or EHT SiB night.
