Drinking some “Basil Me” this evening. I remember absolutely loving this stuff 10 years ago. Now, I’m not so impressed. Perhaps the dark rye is better?

How does it pair with cigars? Noticeable difference from other bourbons? I’ve seen some cigar bourbons/scotches ($$$) and I’ve always been curious if it’s a major game changer.

I still think you should fight him for it. McGregger would approve.

Very interesting notes on this. Something like smoked jerky and stewed fruit.

This is indeed, an awesome pour! I can’t say thank you enough, brother!

This is the Takara Black Blanton..... opinion is that regular Blanton is 10X better. Would not buy again especially only being 80 proof.

Man all these Blanton’s bottles making me thirsty... Dallas has just gotten ridiculous on these over the past year... At $200 a bottle I won’t be buying any I’m afraid....

Yeah, it’s good, but certainly not $200 good. Just my opinion.
