There's a new bourbon offering at LCBO:
Evan Williams Single Barrel Bourbon 43.3%abv
Style - Bold & Sweet
Medium amber copper colour; aromas of charred wood, maple sugar, sweet corn, caramel and vanilla; dry, silky and rounded mouthfeel, with flavours of sweet vanilla, coconut, toasted hazelnut and spice. (LCBO notes)
Anybody try this one? _________________ "Always carry a large flagon of whisky in case of snakebite and furthermore always carry a small snake."

I've had the 2000 vintage and it was fantastic, they put a vintage release out every year so I assume this is he 2004? They are all 10 years old.
The price points are usually really good and if it's as good as some of the earlier ones it'll be a buyer. I probably get one on my next bourbon order. _________________ "Too much of anything is bad, but too much good whisky is barely enough." |

Opelfruit, the year is not mentioned on the listing. It's $54.70 Canadian or 30 British pounds equivalent. _________________ "Always carry a large flagon of whisky in case of snakebite and furthermore always carry a small snake."

That's a good price for the quality you get, think they are £35ish over in the UK. They are only vintage releases so it'll be 2004 I'd bet. As I say they are usually really good value. _________________ "Too much of anything is bad, but too much good whisky is barely enough." |
