    your post a few back made me so mad i went and bought a new bottle of willet the other night. it was glorious. 

    if you willet dude, it is no dream 

    Did another one with Willet tonight.  Starting to see the sublety.   Not a lot of bite but with a little less simple syrup and bitters, it had a little more oomph.  

    I'm not knocking Willet.   It's good.   I'm still experimenting with my preferences.

  3. Tried one tonight with Old Overholt.  Better, IMO, than the Willet but still lagging  a bit behind Bulleit for oomph.    Poured a second a while later, went lighter on bitters/simple syrup and a bit heavier on the Old Overholt.   Better.

  4. OK....  So far the Willet is OK not great.  At least to my pallet.  Considering the proof, there's not nearly the bite that I was expecting.   Not a bad thing but I thought there would be more of a zing compared to Bulliet.    I like it but its seeming like it's not worth the price.

  5. Question on the Old Overholt....   Are ya'll using the normal 80 proof stuff or the Bonded 100 proof?   I grabbed a bottle of the 80 proof from my local Spec's only to discover that the family (non-Spec's) store closer to Casa Macanudo had the Bonded. 

    The local store also had the Basil Hayden Rye and  Dark Rye.  Anyone try those ? 

    As for Spec's.... I did grab a bottle of the Willet Family Estate Rye (108 proof)  Looking forward to cracking that open.

    Snoqualmie falls

    Mount Rainier,  paradise

    Air and space museum

    What he said.     At Rainier, Comet Falls (Paradise side) and Mt. Fremont (Sunrise side) are doable for almost anybody although Mt. Fremont was hard to do last summer than I remembered.   But if the whether is clear, the view can not be beat.

     

    Snoqualmie is pretty cool and there's a great brewery there in town named the same thing.

     

    The Museum of Fight is 100% top notch.
