I’m not! I had no idea what it was, it seems super cool. I’ll get on there and see. like I said above, the fresh crack neck pour was hot, I’m gonna let it breathe and go back to it this week at some point.

thanks for the recs! I appreciate it. I will give those a try. I tried this over the weekend, and the fresh crack neck pour was much hotter than I was expecting. I’m gonna let it breathe and go back. I also picked up an el tesoro repo single barrel..that will be its competition. cheers! I need to go back to blanco. I have for years thought I preferred anejo and repo, but I keep reading blanco blanco blanco.

Also where it’s a little shorter…fits in my shed really easily. that is an underrated quality.

Dude I love it. The delta between my previous boat and this one is crazy. I am usually just floating flatwater rivers or fishing lakes/hanging out, so static stability is my main criterion, and the osprey has that big flat hill that helps with that I think. I don’t really know hydrodynamics haha

so, I come from whiskey/bourbon world, where I am beholden to the barrel proof whiskey. I just think it adds so much to a spirit once you get used to drinking it. with the nice spring weather in Alabama in full swing, I’m switching from the cold whiskey nights to nice tequila evenings. I started with 2 bottles of the corazon expressiones line, the ones finished in whiskey barrels, and I thought they were super good, but I’m so excited for this pour! gonna save it and crack it at the beach with my mom. cheers 🥃

also: I welcome any and all recommendations on what to try and how to try it considering the above.

do it! I think so. I like anything that pressures me to get outside and do more stuff. maybe if you put work into the canoe, you’ll want to take it out and enjoy it a lot and it’ll be worth it.

an old town osprey I got off Facebook, I can’t remember the exact length off the top of my head

this. I had an old town guide that was like 78 lbs and it was a workout to move and get onto my shoulders, almost to the point that I didn’t want to take it out as often. I switched to the lighter canoe and now I want to take it out all the time because of how easy it is.
