I own two bottles of the 2021 Mount Eolus. Which is fitting since I'm from Denver and climbed that mountain in 1991. Looks like some are selling it for $1200, reduced to $899 for a limited time. I'll be drinking mine when the time is right.

Thanks. It does give it a hint of sea character, to me. But I think it's mostly for rapid aging. It is nice to get a heavy dose of Mizunara. It is a hard wood to age in because of leaks.

I just tried this whiskey, absolutely loved it. I'll take it any day over JW Red, which I actually won't take at all--that's the only whiskey I've ever poured the whole bottle down the sink after a couple of tries. To me, JW Red tastes like it had potpourri soaking in it. John Barr has more of a peppery bite on the back end that I really enjoy.

Canadian Whiskies are often a misunderstood and yet unknown to many drinkers even those who live within the border. On the good side, it is worth exploring to see what's out there aside from Scotch, and Bourbon. Glad that I stocked up a few over the years as they are now decently hard to find.

@ole_smokey_south 3 месяца назад
I think it’s still fine to call it Whiskey because Bourbon is just a type of American whiskey. It’s not like calling rum a tequila, because they are two completely different things. Whiskey is more of a category of spirits than it is one specific spirit.

Glad to see this is still available in abundance & the value probably went up, given that most other bourbons prices went up significantly & this did not, or very little. In June '24 getting the EW BiB at $10.80/750mL +tax. That's from an in store 1 bottle price for 1.75L $27.99. Though 10% off, if buy online. Easy to get a stock & not worry about it going away or prices going up, like what happened to the other Heaven Hill mentioned. It was the 6 or 7 yr that stopped & came back as the HH BiB at 3-4Xs the price.
@WhiskeyLore
@WhiskeyLore 4 месяца назад
Yeah, I was just at the Heaven Hill distillery in Bardstown the other day doing a tasting. It was interesting to even hear their own employees talking in a somewhat negative tone about the switch from the high value for the buck HH BIB 6 which was maybe $15 to $18 to the new HH BIB7 for $50. Sad to see it. It's good stuff, but no longer a value.

@@WhiskeyLore Pretty much everything was higher quality (that was made in USA) the farther back you go, not just whiskey. EW Black used to be 90P & have a 7yr age statement (now 86P & NAS), probably in early 90s or around when JD Black was 90P (now 80P). WT 101 had an 8yr age. OGD was 86P (now 80P) & the OGD Bonded was available in high value 1.75L bottles & all the whiskey inside was higher quality from longer age, lower barrel entry proof, distilled to lower proof, barrel wood was older & seasoned longer, cleaner non-gmo grains, etc.

Agreed. "Dry" can certainly be a scent -one of many nasal/olfactory (nerve 8) sensation. Old days see sailors and guides sniffing the moisture (wet, opposite of dry) of wind/air/ and dry-ness of desert sands or sea. Canine and felines have even MORE enhanced nose for dry scent. ------------ Great audio. ------------- Salt, as in Sodium Chloride NaCl of the sea (among other salts) have a distinct scent/aroma - independently of its colligative properties (such as sucking out water, causing dry-ness and lowering boiling point etc . . .).

I don't think anything touches this at the price point. Like you, I prefer this to Jameson's, it's more "pleasant". I can say with a straight face that this is actually "good", and that's hard to do under $30! My budget "go to" scotch is Black Bottle, but it's gone missing in my area for months, so I had to find something else, and this definitely gets the job done. I like JWB, but with the price differential being what it is, I grab this more often than not.
