It is with great sadness I will no longer be looking at this thread in the future. This is a wild one. I have been having sinus issues for the last year and could not for the life of me figure out what the heck it was. Well apparently it’s AERD. Basically a syndrome that means I’m allergic to aspirin. Here is the problem. I take zero pain pills or aspirin. Well a side effect of AERD is 80% of the people who have it are allergic to alcohol. [emoji1751]*[emoji3603] after thinking back and then not drinking the last week or so I decided to test it last night. Had 3-4 whiskey and diet cokes and sure Enough. Sinuses started messing up and started to have a slight wheeze. I am literally allergic to alcohol. I’m gonna give it one more test for New Years since I still have a good bottle of whiskey in the pantry.[emoji23] But I guess 2019 will be my year to go sober and see if I can kick this sinus infection [emoji856]

Got to try a few new ones this weekend:
PVW 23 '18 - Absolutely delicious. Low proof so not a ton of heat. Sweet caramel on the nose, lots of oak on the palate, honey/carmel on the finish. Nice complexity from the nose to finish. Definitely one of my favorites from the year.
GTS '18 - Carmel/Spice/Pear on the nose, Vanilla/Cinnamon on the front of the palate, and apples/sweet heat on the finish. Complex all the way through.
I also tried the new Knob Creek Double Rye, Basil Haydens 10yr, and Balcones Corn Whiskey. Out of the three I preferred the Balcones, with Knob coming in second, and Basil at a distance third.
Hope you guys have a great new year!Last edited by Snacks; 12-31-2018, 09:45 AM.
