Best Of

My oldest granddaughter caught foot-and-mouth disease. I hope it's not a serious illness. Also hope it's gone before the 19th or we'll have to cancel my wife's memorial cookout this year. That would be a shame.

I'll start:

Frustration with the size, location, and design of cup holders in new cars is on the rise—and it holds enormous influence on whether we buy a ride or not.

I finished dinner, putting the dishes in the dishwasher and the leftovers in the fridge, it has finally cooled off enough to really enjoy a nice smoke outside and now I smell a skunk in the backyard. Closed the windows and locked the door to keep the Hell Mutt from getting sprayed again.

The big thing of Larceny is my current go-to ever-day. The other two were recommended by the store guys at Stones River Total Beverages. First I was curious about the Larceny single barrel store pick and they let me sample it. I didn’t like it enough for 79 & change. Then we chatted and they highly recommended the Evan Williams single barrel as they felt it tasted well above its price $36.99. And they had me sample the ancient age 90 by saying it was a high value lower shelf heaven hill product. I liked the sample of that one well enough to grab one at $12.99.

Ancient Age 90 is light flavored and is really better for me Over ice. Great for the summer now that I have been using some ice in my bourbon. Plus it’s cheap.

Larceny gets 2nd place and remains my ever day. Fine neat and with ice.

But the Evan Williams is the best overall. Rich flavor neat and downright sweet over ice. I might have to stock up on this one.
