I was just able to get a bottle of Four Roses blended whiskey blended by Frankfort Distillieries in Baltimore. I am guessing the bottle is from the 50's or early 60's and it still has the tax stamp intact. The back label states: "The straight whiskes in this product are 4 years or more old. 40% straight whiskey. 60% neutral spirits. 6% straight whiskies 6 years old. 10% straight whiskies 5 years old. 24% straight whiskies 4 years old." It looks like about 1/4 of the bottle has evaporated. As I paid next to nothing for it, is it worth trying to taste or should I let it just sit as a collectable? Thoughts?

Is that a good thing?

I believe Landrum stated they were broiled in his initial post

Going down for three nights next month and have dinner lined up at Cochon and August. Looking for a third spot, anyone have any thoughts on Upperline?

Anyone familiar with Roses de Jeanne Champagnes from Cedric Bouchard?

Going down in Jan and wanted to stay in an old school French Quarter Inn as opposed to a chain hotel like the W. Anyone have any thoughts on Place d'Armes? Any other suggestions?

8 works best if possible. Thanks.

We are going here for NYE. I heard that there might be a special tasting menu, can anyone confirm?

Just got me a bottle of the Four Roses 40th Anniversary Jim Rutledge Limited Edition.

Is it similiar to or did it replace the Maximus?

I'm still in

Don't complain. My office is making all the DC folks train up to headquarters in NYC for a lunch and then train back. 6+ hours on a train for a most likely crappy meal.

I loved the 90 and have some of the 95 but have not tried it yet. Any thoughts on the 95?

Cleveland Park Wines has it

Interesting. Just the other day someone I trust offered me a good deal on the 70 BV Latour. I was hesitant b/c most of what I have heard lately is that it is past its prime. Mark, I assume your experience did not mirror this?
