If you guys ever visit the DC area, it will be a good reason for me to break out the Blue.

I know this is a cop out, but . . . 🥃 I add a splash of lime juice. ::nod::👍

The Sinatra has more flavor and very smooth. One of the few whiskeys I can drink neat and enjoy. Regular JD requires a splash of Coke. I only break it out for special occasions like birthdays, graduations and such.
But, is it worth the cost? Not really, there are many excellent bourbons for less than half the price. Woodford Double Oaked is one I enjoy.

Made a whiskey run today and picked up three of my favorites.

The knives are all Hogue Microswitch automatics.

We're staying in the Historic Cavalier Hotel in Virginia Beach, this is the booze distilled on site. I picked up two King Nepture Bourbon, limited edition to 15 bottles, over 125 Proof and no Rye.

One to drink, one to keep. 😉👍

Side note- there are reports of other spirits here as well. Adolph Coors fell to his death here from the 6th Floor at the age of 82 in 1929. Supposedly when authorities arrived the window was closed, but it was determined to be a suicide. He was found in the morning on the south garden side of the building.

Wow! Limited to 15 bottles and you got 2 of them! Nice score! That's some potent stuff. Let us know how you like it.

Thanks, Rick, will do. Or swing on by and try it for yourself if you're in the DC area. 😉👍
