Some of the finer things in life.

Well, we're not big drinkers (regardless of all the posts about beer, homemade liqueurs, wineries, etc). However, once in a while, we'll break down and get a nice bottle of bourbon. Here are 3 that we've found that seem quite smooth, in this order of favorites:

#1. Blanton's Single Barrel:

 #2. Eagle Rare:

 #3. Evan Williams Single Barrel, 18-yr:

So, we're not connoisseurs or anything, but once in a while we'll splurge, and when we do it's typically one of these. A bottle will last a long time, as we "cherish" it. Unfortunately, my wife likes to sip a little, too. Fortunately, she likes me better when she drinks.

Here's a pic that's related just to throw in a little variety. We found a few beers that are aged in bourbon barrels that are amazing, they end up being a rich lager type with a slight caramel finish. Very nice.

So, enjoy (in moderation) and always try something new, whether it be cooking, baking, tasting, sipping, or just living. Buon Appetito!
