We visited the Southern Grace Distillery in Mt Pleasant a few weeks back, after we met our daughter in MTP for lunch. Enjoyed the facility -old run down prison. Will let you taste anything and will let you take pics of their in-house bourbon-style whiskey drink recipes. Tours are free - didn't have time that day to do that.
Wow, where? I go to Chattanooga often to visit my mother & brother and have found some occasional gems but nothing like this! How much was the Stagg & Weller Full Proof and EH Taylor? Found a Blanton's in San Diego a few weeks ago for $75 and should have bought it.....

Just south of nashville. Stagg was $250, Weller FP and 12 was $250, Blantons was $100, EH was $100. Everything else was retail. They had everything too, Elmer, Pappy, RockHill, it was pretty impressive. Most of this was for others, but i got a few.

Wow. That’s impressive. I’d pay a little to have you bring me back a weller FP and an Elmer.
It’s rare to find a place with such a selection
How’s the stagg? I have a stagg Jr I haven’t opened yet.

I present to you all one of the single most important recipes ever documented, because it sure would suck for future generations if it were to be lost to time. Behold...how to make a bourbon and water!
Took most of the day off of work to do yard work and crack open this bottle my boss gave me. I got the front grass cut, but not going to say I got very far into the new fence past the one side minus the gate
Lawn work looks great @lt1fire ! I need to retry BH again - agree it tasted like water last time I had it too : )
BTW - May sound weird, but Heather and I did a side/by/side on 4R SB and Old Forrester 100 Black Label. I then just put the leftover together to drink - wow, nice blend LOL.
Whiskey Kitchen, The Blind Barbour and one other bar bought a barrel volume of this. $18 so not cheap, but - I have had worse for more. 129.4 proof, but pretty smooth - seems like i have had hotter/worse at much lower proofs.

I feel like, as with many a JohnVee post, there is a great deal of tongue in cheek here, but there is some science behind he bourbon (or any liquor really) and water thing.
1st- strong liquor can simply overpower some more subtle flavors that may exist in a spirit. This is most often the case with cask strength stuff.
2nd- there are many alcohol soluble oils and compounds that come through during distillation. A wee bit of dihydrogenmonixide can drop these compounds out of solution and bring their flavors to the foreground.
I know with my own distillations an eye dropper and a little bit of distilled water can really wake a dram up and bring out flavors you might have been missing.
I didn’t read the whole spruce eats article so I don’t know what they were recommending, but an eye dropper and a glencairn glass is a great way to taste fine whiskey.
