Working remote from my Tennessee Ponderosa for a while. Too damned hot back in Houston and at least the nights here are cooler. Picked these up on way in. Two different bottlings of the BiB - Spring 2007 and Fall 2008, but both 13 years in the barrel in that crazy south Tennessee climate. Was stoked to try the rye, given the age, but was left with a feeling of meh. Felt thin, one dimensional, no oomph. Looked closer and noted that it was blended and bottled in Michigan. Haven’t seen much Michigan whiskey on the market and I know they didn’t distill or age this one themselves, but at close to $100, it should have been way better.
