Not yet but Rappoport is

He’s actually going back to Butte College to use that final year of eligibility

Lady Bird is killer, I love it. Laguna Madre is next on my list but I might need to save up a bit for that one

The single barrel is also fantastic and offers an easier sip for those that don’t want to be one and done when they pour up a glass.

Please reach out if you want to hear more about these bottles or any others for that matter, I love to talk whiskey! Let me know if you’d like to see more!

And that’s that! Three great bourbons that I’m very happy to be able to talk about. I’d go with Cowboy ‘23 or ‘24 if I just wanted to sip on one glass all night and dissect the tasting notes, because at 140+ proof, that’s probably all I could handle for the night!

Last is the single barrel! Around 5 years old, 128.1 proof. Very buttery on the nose, not as dark. Rich on the palate, not as much burn as the Cowboys. An oaky Snickers bar. Candy sweetness that sticks around on the finish. Easier sipper than the other two due to proof. Still holds a nice richness

Next is Cowboy ‘24! Again at least 8 years old, 140.2 proof this time. Nose is buttery cookie dough with a little burn. This one coats the mouth a bit more. Palate is a more bitter oak, darker tobacco. Maybe more barrel influence on the ‘24? Finish brings up sweet tea like ‘23. Another great one!

Starting with Cowboy 2023. At least 8 years old, 140.9 proof! Nose is sweet tea and sawdust. Ethanol burn is there but not as strong as you’d expect. Palate is VERY sweet. Oaky with tobacco and brown sugar. Burns, but again not at the 140.9 level. Finish brings the sweet tea back. Such a good bottle

I was unsure at first but I’m a huge fan now! Cowboy is something I’m seeking out on a yearly basis

Can you return the empties please? They look cool

good whale
