For the tasting... not enough bourbon in the glasses for an ice cube....

When most people tried at least 10-12 different bourbons, got to do small pours! Didn't want any of them spending the night in the front or rear yard!

^ I will vouch for Mike’s tastings. He doesn’t let things get out of control.

To be honest, I've never enjoyed those kind of glasses, the smelling of bourbon, or most of the pomp that goes with it. Don't take that wrong. Its great if you like that. For me its the taste, and nothing else. Fact is, I just had Bulleit Bourbon last night that's been on my the shelf and realized I don't like it at all.

For some reason I had in the back of my mind, that I did too. Maybe it was the Rye that I liked.

I thinks those kinds of differences are what makes the world go round, Dave.

I'll give you a little hint...

When you go to sniff/smell/inhale some of the aroma... keep your mouth open.

That way the alcohol fumes don't drive you crazy!

Do this for anything with a smell/aroma/etc, doesn't have to be booze!

Rye or regular Bulleit bourbon or Bulleit 10 year.... all will taste entirely different!
