Tried this at a local whiskey bar recently. Thought I was pretty good. Smooth, good flavor, and just a slight burn on the back end. I'll see how it is when I haven't had several other drinks before hand.

Finally found a Balcones that I can recommend. The BiB Rye was excellent. The back notes of cinnamon were interesting. I do regret not buying enough to try a Manhattan, but I expect my next trip to the store will remedy that.
Bonus...
Bourbon Buddy grabbed a few bottles of McKenna 10 BiB on a drive through Arkansas. Delish. The store employee said they sold their entire case of Weller Antique a few minutes prior, all to one person. The store owner refuses to limit purchases on allocated spirits, so, Bourbon Buddy bought their 4 remaining bottles of McKenna 10.
I almost feel bad.
ETA: The glass of ice in the background is WifeGBiv making a fruity cocktail. NOT for the Bourbon. (We are not blasphemers here!)

I went looking for Weller antique yesterday. Apparently the PA state stores stopped selling any Weller. Fortunately I am well stocked with Weller and Blantons and there is always famous grouse
BT distribution season delivers another score.
Plus I saw Weller on the shelf for the first time ever in FL(I had it at a bar in IL and felt the flavor profile was similar enough to Buffalo Trace that I didn't "need" one)
Tonight though, we'll go with something already open and the only 4 Roses that I care for

My first sip since the beginning of Lent was last evening.
Willet was the choice for the evening.
Damn delicious after a 6 week sabbatical. Worth the wait.
